PFB+: Q&A with 2022 OSU Quarterback Commit Garret Rangel

The Cowboys picked up their first high school quarterback commitment since Shane Illingworth on Friday.

Garret Rangel pledged to the Pokes, becoming the seventh commit in OSU’s young 2022 class. Rangel has actually been committed to the Cowboys for a few weeks just silently. He talked with PFB on Jan. 27 about his commitment.

Marshall Scott: The obvious question to start is why Oklahoma State?

Garret Rangel: “For me, it was the culture and environment. I took a virtual visit, my family and I took a virtual visit like two weeks ago, and the whole staff was on there. The whole coaching staff was on there. The way they showed my parents and me so much love, it was a blessing. I think that was the biggest thing for me was just the cultural environment. It has what I need academically and athletically, and I feel like it fits my personality really well. That’s why I went with Oklahoma State.”

MS: You mentioned the virtual visit, so you haven’t been able to make it up to campus physically yet?

GR: “No because of all the COVID rules and stuff like that.”

MS: You also talked about academics, yesterday you told me you were doing SAT prep, I see that you’ve got a high grade-point average, what is it that you’re looking to do academically?

GR: “I want to major in broadcasting, be in front of the camera and stuff like that. Honestly, for SAT stuff, I just want to get a good grade for like an ego-booster, pretty much.”
