Former star Big XII KR finds home in DII … Former star Oklahoma State WR/RB/KR Tyreek Hill has transferred to DII West Alabama where he will be eligible immediately.  Hill, who had 3 returns for TDs last fall including a 92-yard punt return in the Cowboys’ dramatic win over Oklahoma, was named an all-conference special teamer after transferring in from a junior college last fall, but was kicked out of the program following a December arrest on a domestic violence charge in which he was alleged to have choked his girlfriend. Hill had been thought to have transferred to Akron this spring, but that never materialized and ended up at West Alabama after he entered a plea deal for three years of probation and a deferred sentence last week to resolve his case. The domestic issue will obviously have a significant impact on Hill’s NFL hopes, but the 5-9, 185-pounder also has world class track speed – he’s run under 10-flat in the 100M – which may get him a second chance at some point.
