"They say to just chill, don't rush it," Randle said. "They've all told me to think it out all the way. My brother also says to pray a lot about it.

"K-State, KU, Nebraska, Stanford, Duke, Clemson, Notre Dame and LSU are sending me letters every day.

So I feel like I have to have a great year this season to really
