When Baylor's regular season ended after the Bears had lost their sixth straight, eyes turned to the players who would potentially make early declarations for the NFL Draft, opt to take advantage of grad transfer years, or simply leave because the coaching staff which recruited them to Waco would be gone.Right in the middle of the speculation was fourth-year junior linebacker Taylor Young of DeSoto, a mainstay in Baylor's starting lineup since his redshirt freshman season in 2014 which he was named to the Freshman All-American teamOnly Tuesday evening, Young, who graduated in December, announced that he would be returning to Baylor in the spring on his Twitter account.After a few retweets of fans and media outlets, Young went on to endorse new head coach Matt Rhule for any prospects who were considering Baylor in their recruiting process.Despite missing three of Baylor's 13 games in 2016, Young tallied career highs in tackles (93) and sacks (4.5). In three years for the Bears, Young has totaled 265 tackles, 12.5 sacks, 31.0 tackles for loss, five passes defended, and one interception.
