As Korie Black walked away from the car, he heard his friend shouting familiar words.
Trent Pullen dropped off Black at his home, but Pullen wouldn’t leave before blurting out another reminder about where he wanted Black to play college football.
“Come to Oklahoma State with me, bro,” Pullen said.
Black, a senior defensive back from Waco, Texas, learned to expect this from his Connally High School teammate and childhood buddy.
“It was just always in my ear,” Black said.
Now, Pullen’s wish is closer to becoming reality. He and Black each had multiple offers, but they committed to OSU as 2020 recruits.
