Breckyn Hager

Texas defensive lineman Breckyn Hager has much different look thanks to his team’s bowl game victory and some help from a famous Texas alumnus.

Hager’s career at Texas ended with a 28-21 victory over Georgia in this year’s Sugar Bowl. During his time in Austin, Hager’s hair has been something of a talking point since ever since he vowed not to cut it until the Longhorns won the Big 12 Championship.

Unfortunately, Texas didn’t win the conference championship during Hager’s time at the university. However, he still cut his with hair with the help of Texas alum/superfan Matthew McConaughey.

A new beginning indeed for Hager. Not only does he have a new hairdo, but he is about to embark on the next chapter of his life.

Hager started 21 of his 47 games at Texas and was an honorable mention All-Big 12 in 2018 as a senior.
