The cause of death has yet to be released by authorities.
The former three-star prospect in 2020 played two seasons with the Longhorns before transferring to New Mexico in 2022. In his time with the Lobos, Hullaby has two catches for 44 yards, including a 38-yard catch against LSU in Baton Rouge.
He came to the Longhorns as a running back out of Mansfield Timberview High School as part of the 2020 class, picking the Longhorns over Arkansas, Baylor, Florida, LSU, Michigan State, TCU, and many other offers.
Prayers up for his family and friends as they try to get past this difficult time in their lives.
