OSU football journal: Running back depth emerging for Cowboys

One of the key storylines for Oklahoma State entering the preseason: who joins returning standout Justice Hill to form a strong 1-2 combination at running back.

Turns out, it might be a 1-2-3-4-5.

Ok, so a group of five is hardly ideal, nor likely. Still, Cowboys coaches are happy with depth developments at the position, where four freshmen have played well, to the point that any of the four could become a major contributor.

The question becomes, which one, or even two?

“I just tell them to keep working when they come in and to work every day,” Hill said.
