Texas State CB Craig Mager’s backstory proves he’s a high character guy that has had to overcome a lot in his life to be where he is today. His mother passed away when he was 15 and because his father wasn’t in his life he was forced to move into his grandmother’s house and help raise his younger sisters. Mager elected to go to Texas State because it was so close to his house and started every game the four years he was there.
After grabbing a hold of the starting corner spot and not letting go, Mager finished last season with 63 tackles, 13 passed defended and 3 interceptions and was elected Second Team All-Sun Belt honors.
