| Junior tailback Reggie White and Tight End Marcellus Rivers have entered the NFL Draft. Both had one year of eligibility remaining. Rivers is actually a senior, but was unable to play his freshman season because he was a partial qualifier. This left him a fourth year of eligibility which he is waiving to enter the NFL. Rivers was OSU's go-to receiver all season, including the OU game, when the ball went to him on a fade pattern when OSU had a shot at the end zone and one of the biggest upsets of the season. White was the first Cowboy since 1996 to rush for more than 1,000 yards in a season. He finished the year with 1,049, and averaged 5.0 yards per carry. Last year Jacoby Shephard left OSU a year early and despite criticism, was taken in the 2nd round by the St. Louis Rams. |
