STILLWATER — Oklahoma State safety Dylan Harding announced late Friday that he is retiring from football after being diagnosed with spinal stenosis.
Harding — a 6-foot-2, 190-pound, junior and former Jenks star — posted the news on Twitter.
He wrote: "For everyone that hasn't seen or heard, I got diagnosed with spinal stenosis that's causing me to leave the game I've played since 2nd grade. I'll never forget the young days of watching Bedlam games with my pops and dreaming of being apart of something that special. Thankfully I got that opportunity and I'll never forget it.
