Report: Former Georgia State Running Back Freddie Brock Transferring to Oklahoma State

The Cowboys are picking up an experienced running back from the Group of Five level.

Georgia State transfer Freddie Brock will play his final season at Oklahoma State, according to multiple reports. Listed at 5-foot-10, 190 pounds last season, Brock ran for 1,126 yards and nine touchdowns in two seasons with Georgia State. The majority of that came this past season.

Brock’s college career started at Maine. He ran for 1,145 yards in 25 games with the FCS’s Black Bears.

He was used sparingly in his first season with Georgia State until the Panthers’ bowl game that year. Brock carried 24 times for 276 yards and a touchdown in Georgia State’s Idaho Potato Bowl win against Utah State. Brock took over the featured role full time this past season, running for 819 yards and eight touchdowns on 151 carries. He also caught 21 passes for 166 yards and another score.

He announced March 4 that he was in the transfer portal as a grad transfer and has since also announced offers to Temple, Western Kentucky, UTEP, Liberty, USF and others.

Brock was a three-star prospect coming out of East High School in Rochester, New York. He ran for 1,176 yards and 23 touchdowns as a senior. He initially went to Maine over a handful of offers from teams in the northeast.

Brock joins an inexperienced but exciting running back room in Stillwater. His 181 FBS carries is more than any other player in the Cowboys’ position group. He’s the second transfer to join the group, adding to former OU running back Kalib Hicks. The Cowboys also return Trent Howland, Rodney Fields, Sesi Vailahi and Jaden Allen-Hendrix. OSU coach Mike Gundy mentioned last week that Allen-Hendrix had suffered a lower-body injury in spring practice.
