On Friday afternoon, Oklahoma running back Joe Mixon addressed the media following the release of the footage in which he’s seen punching a woman named Amelia Molitor.
The incident took place during Mixon’s freshman year in 2014. He was suspended for the entire season as a result. Video of the act didn’t get released publicly until just a few days ago.
Head coach Bob Stoops made these recent comments as it pertained to Mixon. Two days later, it was Mixon’s turn to address the video:
