    RR hasn't said much at all during this whole process. About the only thing we know- his final three are "reportedly" LSU, Bama and OU.

    I hope for the best, but I'm prepared for the worst.

    Towards the end of his recruitment, RR said on more than one occasion that distance from family was a factor. I doubt it will mean much between bama and LSU, but it would seem to factor for OU.

    I have a general question about this guy's skills. What makes him so good? I've seen he and Debose, and I find Debose to be better because of his speed and he has great ball skills. What's so good about Randle because if I'm not mistaken, he's not a burner, he's not very muscular, and he's not HUGE for a WR?

    They dont know anything.

    Not very.

    He is not a 10 at really anything like speed. But he is close to a 8 or 9 at in most oif the skill categories, where as other WR's have weaknesses that would be rated around 4 or 5. Its sort of like watching Andre Johnson play - nothing sticks out on paper (other than his weight) but put all the pieces together and he is incredible.

    He's a 'natural' receiver. ESPN has this to say..

    He's a bigger version of Brandon LaFell. I fully expect Randle to be the same size as LaFell after his freshmen year. When it's all said and done I wouldn't be shocked if he was playing at 215-220 lbs.. he's got the frame and then some.

    DeBose is more electrifying. He'll give you more big plays, but RR is a guy who consistently helps you move the chains down the field & then is a great redzone threat.
