STILLWATER — Oklahoma State coach Mike Gundy's Twitter account was responsible for initially breaking the news Monday morning that junior running back Justice Hill and senior right guard Larry Williams will skip the Cowboys' Dec. 31 matchup with Missouri in the Liberty Bowl to begin preparing for the 2019 NFL Draft. Tuesday, Gundy met with media after OSU's second bowl practice and discussed their decision.
Hill, the seventh-leading rusher in program history, missed the past two games and had only five carries in Bedlam because of a rib injury. He ends his career 70 yards shy of becoming the second OSU running back to have three 1,000-yard seasons.
