Richardson Expected to Handle the Load at Running Back for Cowboys in 2022

STILLWATER — Dominic Richardson has been outstanding in limited carries the past two seasons for the Cowboys, but since he arrived in Stillwater from Bishop McGuinness, he has been buried behind a bevy of more experienced backs.

Richardson has watched Chuba Hubbard, LD Brown, Dezmon Jackson and Jaylen Warren all get their respective turns at RB1, but 2022 is Richardson’s time. OSU coach Mike Gundy said Monday that, ready or not, Richardson is going to have to carry the rock 18 to 20 times against Central Michigan on Sept. 1. Richardson has only two games of more than 12 carries as a Cowboy to this point.
