Many of Oklahoma State’s running backs over recent seasons have been more of the scatback mold — that doesn’t exactly fit with Ollie Gordon.
Gordon was named the Big 12’s Co-Offensive Player of the Week after his 168 rushing yards, 116 receiving yards and two touchdown day against Kansas. Gordon shares the award with TCU quarterback Josh Hoover, who threw for 439 yards and four touchdowns against BYU.
At 6-foot-1 (some people argue he is taller), 211 pounds, Gordon is quite a bit different than a 5-10 Justice Hill or a blazing speed Chuba Hubbard or a 5-8 Jaylen Warren.
