Oklahoma running back Alex Ross to graduate and transfer following spring semester

Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops announced senior running back Alex Ross will transfer following his graduation next week.

Ross will be immediately eligible as a graduate transfer in 2016 after spending three seasons as a back-up running back and starting kick-off returner.

"Alex has been a great teammate and team guy for four years for us, and we've always been proud of him," Stoops said in a press release. "This is an opportunity for him to go somewhere else and play full time. We wish him the best."

Ross returned two kick-offs for touchdowns in 2014 and came close with a 90-yard return against Oklahoma State in 2015.
