We all know Tom Brady loves his roasts. And when giving a commencement address at Georgetown University, Brady got in a joke at the expense of an unlikely target \u2013 Texas Tech.<\/p>\n
Brady had plenty of jokes<\/a> in his graduation speech<\/a> at the prestigious business school, whether it was about the New York Jets or former head coach Bill Belichick. It\u2019s maybe a tad ironic that Brady would be Georgetown\u2019s speaker given the institution\u2019s football team plays at the FCS level in the Patriot League. But it was an FBS football school that drew Brady\u2019s most viral, and perhaps even controversial, jab.<\/p>\n In his speech, Tom Brady was talking about a fourth down conversion during Super Bowl LI that started their famous comeback against the Atlanta Falcons. He was praising Amendola\u2019s perseverance and ability even though he was an undrafted player who was on his fourth NFL team. But he also had quite the description for his alma mater, the Red Raiders.<\/p>\n Tom Brady called Texas Tech a \u201cglorified community college\u201d<\/p>\n That\u2019s straight from the GOATs mouth. pic.twitter.com\/zWN7C3J0Au<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 \ud835\udc34 \ud835\udc48\ud835\udc5b\ud835\udc56\ud835\udc63\ud835\udc52\ud835\udc5f\ud835\udc60\ud835\udc56\ud835\udc61\ud835\udc66 \ud835\udc5c\ud835\udc53 \ud835\udc3b\ud835\udc5c\ud835\udc62\ud835\udc60\ud835\udc61\ud835\udc5c\ud835\udc5b \ud835\udc39\ud835\udc4e\ud835\udc5b (@NotWhoYouDream) May 20, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n \u201cDanny went undrafted out of Texas Tech. He was cut by three NFL teams. He wasn\u2019t the tallest, he wasn\u2019t the fastest, but he had a huge heart, and he played his ass off in the biggest moments. And I hope you guys find colleagues like Danny. Having business school friends are great, don\u2019t get me wrong, but sometimes you need a kid from a glorified community college who can bail your ass out of any jam,\u201d Brady said. \u201cIf you want to achieve great things, surround yourself with people like him.\u201d<\/p>\n Glorified community college? Ouch! Texas Tech is becoming more known as a football school thanks to the millions of dollars being invested by oil tycoon Cody Campbell and their recent playoff berth. But it\u2019s got a decent academic reputation. In case you\u2019re wondering, Texas Tech ranks #198<\/a> in US News & World Report\u2019s college rankings. It also prides itself<\/a> on being the #4 public school in Texas and #5 in the Big 12 according to the Wall Street Journal<\/a>. Take that, Houston!<\/p>\n So was it a joke about Danny Amendola? Was it a secret dig at Patrick Mahomes? Trying out new material for his next roast of colleges and universities? Maybe it\u2019s just that this is a comment that comes from a Michigan Man. Everyone who isn\u2019t the Wolverines, Stanford, Georgetown, or an Ivy League school probably falls in the same boat. Whatever the case, Tom Brady probably won\u2019t be invited to give the commencement address in Lubbock next spring.<\/p>\n \t
