I make sure to keep in contact with all the coaching staffs that have offered so far, he explained. I dont have any favorites or anything like that so I talk to them all about the same. I call each coach that recruits me about once every two weeks. Its like a routine right now and all according to schedule. Its all fun but I know it might get hectic later on so I want to try to take some visits in the summer and fall.
I grew up a pretty big fan of Ohio State ever since I was 10 years old, Richmond explained. They had guys like*James Laurinaitis,*Michael Jenkins,*Troy Smith,*Beanie Wells, and*Brian Robiskie*and so that was my school I always cheered for. That was an offer I really wanted to get so it was a pretty emotional feeling when I found out. I wasnt sure if it was going to happen at first, especially when*Michigan*showed interest in me before they did.

CHICAGO -- The second Rivals100 Five-Star Challenge presented by Under Armour took to the field on Saturday at Soldier Field. The Rivals.com team of analysts broke down the prospects by position. Here are the top offensive linemen.
7. OT Drew Richmond, Memphis (Tenn.) Memphis University School, 2015: Richmond is raw, but he played well considering the talented defensive linemen he was going against. He has the physical tools to be dominant but needs to add strength and develop his body. Richmond is far along from a technique standpoint. He stays low, has good hand placement and moves well laterally. There is plenty of time for him to develop.
Pretty good when compared to the group that was mostly 2014 recruits and some of the top in the country.
Uh oh, Vandy has offered. We better get on the stick now & steal this recruit before he changes his mind. But in all seriousness, this is a big dude & we need big dudes for the OL. Looks like Bama has their foot in the door as well. CBJ needs to circle the wagons on Mr.Richmond & not let him get away.
Article in Memphis CA this week about Richmond. Kind of weird that he didn't mention us when he was asked who had offered him. Probably mentioned 6-8 other schools. However, it did say that Jordan Rodgers was his QB last year, and he is headed to UT this year to play for Serrano.
