Texas Tech DB Nigel Bethel To Transfer

Nigel Bethel was one of Texas Tech's top DBs, if not the top DB. Now, he's headed elsewhere. Bethel announced his intent to transfer today via Twitter.

Bethel finished the 2015 season with 12 passes broken up and 1 interception. He was routinely lined up on the opposition's best receiver, and came out of the 2015 season as the best pass defender in the Texas Tech secondary.
