Former Oklahoma running back Joe Mixon said Wednesday he's "not looking for easy" as he embarks on his professional career, calling questions about his character "another obstacle I have to go through."
In an interview with ESPN's Dan Graziano, Mixon said he thinks about the July 2014 night when he hit fellow student Amelia Molitor in the face in a local restaurant, knocking her to the ground and breaking bones in her face. Mixon entered a plea on a misdemeanor assault charge and was suspended for the 2014 season after receiving a deferred one-year sentence and community service.
