The GOAT will formally — and finally — be immortalized at Oklahoma State.
The athletic department announced on Thursday that Barry Sanders will be inducted into the Ring of Honor on Nov. 13 as OSU welcomes TCU in town for a conference showdown. OSU also said a sculptor is working on a statue of Sanders that will be on display outside the stadium. It doesn’t sound as though the statue will be done by Nov. 13.
Sanders will become the second former player inducted into the Cowboy Football Ring of Honor joining his former teammate and fellow Hall of Fame running back, Thurman Thomas, who was inducted in 2020.
