Really could be bad, but let's hope the coaches know what they are doing with Randall.

Justin has said on DT he doesn't expect Randall to qualify...this would be a huge letdown considering we could have had Brett Hundley!

...I fully expect J Randall to qualify because I believe that CK wouldn't of wasted a scholarship offer on him. As far as Hundley is concerned....good riddens....he wouldn't of been able to hang/compete with the stable of QB's that we will have here anyway. Hope he gets buried on the depth chart w/Neweasel's baby blue crew.....!

I would love to add this kid to our roster, dudes a gamer/winner just like BB!

As a huge Manziel fan, I am not sure why I'd be pissed. I don't think Randall had the slightest influence on Manziel switching to A & M.

He switched at a time he was playing against some of the highest rated 5 stars in the country and beating them. He will face competition at any top school he goes to and frankly Randall's stats would hardly have been very intimidating.

I still wish he would reconsider, but A & M had a good year by their standards and he is really wrapped up in their program now.

It's tough beating out the local team.

I'm just thankful that Texas & Texas AM didn't go after LMJ, Huff, & Thomas

Agreed! Texas largely fills up on juniors and can be so selective they tend to throw away players for being undersized (LMJ, Manziel, Chase Daniels) or playing other than their college position (Huff).

Based on Manziel's stats I'm surprised he didn't win player of the year in Texas.

Texas A&M pledge Johnny Manziel had 483 total yards in a losing effort for Tivy. He had more than 5,200 combined passing and rushing yardage this season.

I kind of agree.

Not sure where Justin is getting his info. Randall scored a 19 on his ACT (which is equivalent to a 920 on the SAT). Using the NCAA's sliding scale, Randall would only need a 2.25 GPA to qualify. According to scout, Randall has a 2.7 core GPA.

For Randall to not qualify, he would have had to have been failing most of his classes for the past two terms.

Yeah I;m with you guys. Not buying the reports from JHop. He's making it sound like a done deal too. Which even if Randall was doing bad in school, it wouldn't be set in stone.

[lukeyrid13]

could be more hype just to get everyone riled up and on their site

[ChipKellyKapowski]

Justin isn't bs'ing... there are serious grade concerns and Randall isn't even at Chaminade anymore. Is it "set in stone?" - of course not. But if you're suggesting Justin doesn't know what he's talking about based on the fact that Scout lists a 2.7 for the kid's GPA, you're nuts.

[fecta23]

I posted that s*** about Randall before anyone else did. I know someone in the AD and they told me that he has been getting awful grades this term. And remember that minimum GPA requirement is about their core classes.

[UofO8]

Bring on Hundley.

This^^ Don't really want to bother with Randall if he is already having grade issues before leaving HS. Would probably just get worse if he were to get here.
