Longhorns Poach a Baylor Recruit

"Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all, especially to those who are of the household of faith."
Galatians 6:10

Score one for Charlie Strong:

Austin Westlake linebacker Breckyn Hager (6-3, 210) has flipped his commitment to the Texas Longhorns from conference rival Baylor. Hager was recently rumored to have received an offer from the Longhorns, but it was not confirmed until today.

The 6-foot-3-inch, 210-pound Hager is ranked as a three-star defensive end prospect by 247Sports. With no current linebacker commitments in the 2015 recruiting class, in addition to 2013 signee Deoundrei Davis no longer being in the program and 2014 signee Andrew Beck moving to tight end, the Longhorns need help at linebacker.

....

Hager is the son of former Texas All-American linebacker Britt Hager. Hager, who wore No. 60 at Texas, holds the all-time record on the Forty Acres for single season (195 in 1988) and and career (499) tackles.
