Status
Richmond committed to Ole Miss on September 9th after claiming a final two of Ole Miss and Tennessee. He says that he will remain open to taking visits and speaking with other schools, so while the announcement for the Rebels certainly stung for Tennessee. there is still a chance for Tennessee (or another school) to change his mind in the coming weeks. Alabama and Texas are among the other schools looking to have a last-minute say in his decision.The Vols got some hope a couple days ago when enrollee Kyle Phillips mentioned Richmond on Twitter as somebody he’s still going after.

Outlook
Richmond wants to play as a freshman wherever he goes, and while that isn’t normally ideal, he is more than talented enough to do so. He is big, physical, and strong at his tackle position. He plays with a good demeanor and does a great job of helping out his teammates after he has finished his assignment. Half of his highlight tape is him pancaking his defender and then pealing back to help out on another block. He will have to work on his technique, but his size and strength will help him succeed while learning the finer details of the game.
