    Reuben Randle is leading the SEC in receiving and has already passed his 2010 season totals :shock:

    Life is surely predictable ... You get back what effort you put out!!!

    My favorite lines:
    Senior Jarrett Lee said working with Randle has been almost effortless. In fact, it’s been that way since Randle came on campus three years ago. Randle’s time as a high school quarterback gives him the ability to know when his quarterbacks will get the snap and when and where to be in his routes at the right times.

    “He’s a special playmaker,” Lee said of Randle. “He was a former high school quarterback, so he understands football and a quarterback’s mindset. That’s what makes him a special player. He works hard each and every day because he wants the football in his hands.

    Randle doesn’t brag about his abilities, but no one would blame him if he flaunted his speed or the fact that his 6-foot-4, 207-pound frame makes him nearly impossible to adequately defend in one-on-one situations. Oh, and don’t forget those hands made of magnets.

    “It’s fun when you get your opportunities,” Randle said. “Now, you’re running full stride and you don’t have to break stride and the ball just lands in your hands. It’s also exciting to have quarterbacks that can deliver the ball like that.”

    That Randall is sneaky quiet ... unbelievable he has these stats ... I didn't see it

    For a couple of games there I thought Odell Beckham was our best receiver, but watching the video again, you see the extra attention teams give Randall

    Add us a Russell Sheperd in the mix and a Deangelo Peterson at TE

    Goosebumps ... TD LSU

    Poor Nicky ...

    It sure is a thing of beauty. Both of Randle's TD's vs Auburn were perfectly thrown balls in stride. We all knew that Lee had the ability to do this; it was nice to see JJ do it as well.

    Let's see some more of this vs Bama!!

    This is a BIG mismatch for our secondary... I really hope we can contain him for the most part, but it will be our toughest challenge all season. I am hoping it's 24 - Menzie and not 21 going up against him. Either way, they are gonna have to get some excellent support from the safeties.

    Randle has NFL route-running ability. Add in great hands, great size, and great blocking and you got yourself an elite WR but also, unfortunately someone who might leave early for the draft.

    Can we hear from some of the pro-Crowton people who thought we had two uncoachable scrubs at QB?
