B.J. Baylor, sleeper Texas RB, commits to Oregon State Beavers

In search of a second running back commitment after landing Calvin Tyler Jr., the Oregon State Beavers went back to the well Saturday, earning the commitment of another underrated Texas ball-carrier - B.J. Baylor.

The 5-foot-11, 180-pound ball-carrier, out of Wharton High School (Texas), was a quick-get for the Beavers, turning a late offer and official visit into a commitment within just days.

As a senior, Baylor registered 1,997 yards and 24 touchdowns with an additional 301 yards and four scores receiving.

He is also the latest example of Gary Andersen and his staff's ability to bring in quality talent at key positions of need.
