Julius Randle almost committed to Oklahoma
Posted Nov 8, 2011
Two years ago when he visited Oklahoma, Julius Randle, a junior forward at Prestonwod Christian (Plano, Texas), had the time of his life. “It was a great visit,” Randle recalled. “I had a ball.” So much that he was ready to get then head coach Jeff Capel (now an assistant at Duke) on the line and pledge his allegiance to Sooner Nation. “I was ready to commit,” said Randle, who is ranked No. 3 in the ESPNU 60.
