Oklahoma State football: Joseph Randle's competition with OU's Blake Bell moves one state south

“Yeah, I wanted him to come here, but we didn't offer him. He would have came here and told me, ‘I would have loved to go here but they didn't offer me.' And OU did, so that's just how it went.”

Did his breakout season last year surprise you at all?

“Oh no, he's an absolute athlete. He's a 6-6 athlete that you can't do much about.”

You got him last year in the Bedlam game, two rushing touchdowns to one. Did you give him any grief for that?

“He actually text me right before the game and said, ‘Man, I hope I get about three or four.' Then he asked me if I was going to match that. I was just like, ‘I don't know, we going to see.' So we got a little competition going.”
