AUSTIN, Texas - Senior defensive lineman Breckyn Hager will wear No. 60 in Saturday's AT&T Red River Showdown against Oklahoma in honor of legendary Longhorn Tommy Nobis. Following Nobis' passing last December, the entire program wore '60' decals on the back of their helmets for the Texas Bowl, while Hager also wore Nobis' retired No. 60 with the permission of his widow, Lynn Nobis.
Hager, whose father Britt donned the No. 60 jersey in honor of Nobis from 1984-88 during his All-American career, will once again wear the jersey on Saturday. Hager, a 2018 captain, along with his father Britt, are just the third father-son duo in school history to both be named captains during their careers.
