Former star recruit Breiden Fehoko transferring from Texas Tech

Breiden Fehoko, a former four-star recruit, announced on Twitter that he will be transferring from Texas Tech after starting at the nose tackle position the past two years.

In a tweet, Fehoko states that his brothers, V.J. and Sam, were a reason for him to "wear the scarlet and black."

Fehoko was considered one of the main players off Tech's defensive line. His message:

Now, head coach Kliff Kingsbury and defensive line coach Kevin Patrick have to replace Fehoko's presence on what was already a bad defense.

Fehoko was No. 51 in the ESPN 300 and the fourth-ranked defensive lineman in his class by Scout when coming out of high school.
