In a year that is seeing a good number of running backs heading off to chase NFL glory, Oklahoma State will have one of the top backs in the nation back in 2020. Chuba Hubbard announced with a video on his Twitter account he will be returning to the Cowboys in 2020.
Hubbard led the nation with 161.08 rushing yards per game and a nation-leading 2,094 rushing yards in 2019. Hubbard rushed for 21 touchdowns in one of the top breakout seasons by any college football player in 2019. The announcement of his return for 2020 comes on the same day Oklahoma State announced a promotion of Kasey Dunn to offensive coordinator.
The pride of Canada will be one of the top players returning in 2020 and will likely see his name thrown in the early preseason Heisman Trophy conversation with Clemson’s Trevor Lawrence. Hubbard will aim to become Oklahoma State’s second Heisman Trophy winner, joining the iconic Barry Sanders.
