He's a perfect example of someone not wanting it. At all.

You see these guys with less measurables yet they ball because they'd give their left nut to play.

Randle never had that type of give a shite.

He was a big deal. And he was a really good player.

These morons are acting like he was a disaster. He played in the heart of shitty LSU QBs and put up respectable numbers.

It was evident his last year at LSU that Odell and Jarvis were better than him.

Jarvis barely did anything in '11, his memorable play was on kick coverage.

Randle put up good numbers in 2011 considering it was a run heavy offense. He was a good Posession receiver that was hard to bring down and made it a few years in the NFL. There are lots of highly ranked players who only make it a few years in the league

My cousin was in the same recruiting class as Odell and Jarvis. I saw a lot of scrimmages that year and they were better then all the other WRs as freshmen

He was behind Lafell and Bryd his freshman year then Bryd and Tolliver his 2nd. He was the no.1 this Jr year and showed up that year... man some of our fan are assholes

Odell and Jarvis have turned out to be some of the best receivers in the NFL, it's not like it's a slight to not be as good as them.

Randle has 6 seasons and 20 career TDs, he had a solid little career.

Bad knees. He could barely practice with the Giants. He mainly only did walkthroughs. Living here, they talked about it a lot.

He also stayed in the doghouse with the Giants and I will always remember that play with the Giants when he ran out of bounds with a step on the defender. He could’ve been a solid 2nd WR in the NFL if he cared about football.

I found the play when he made a ridiculous one handed catch and ran straight out of bounds. LINK

He was too slow for the NFL and too slow for anything after that. (To be a successful player, that is.)

He was a little bit of speed away from being a stud in the SEC. Good player, but not elite.

Considering the offense he played in and who had throwing to him I think he had a nice careeer. Made some clutch catches in 2011. Also his brother used to post here.

No, it wasn't. In 2011 in the SEC, Randle was 3rd in receiving yards, t-3rd in TDs, 2nd in YPC and 3rd in YPG.

People acting like he never did anything are dumb.
