High ceiling due to size and athletic ability. I can see 4 star but that doesn't look like 5 star highlights to me. I see a guy that tends to give up early on his blocks and doesn't strain. Almost does the minimum IMO. Jack Jones film is much more impressive if you want to see what strain is and finishing blocks looks like. I agree with 247 rating over rivals when seeing his highlights.
 
I'll believe this kid when he actually signs with someone, till then I take what he says with a pound of salt.

If your having issues with dehydration or elecrolytes I would recommend a sports drink before you go the whole pound of salt route.

Good advice, also, please save that salt for me, looks like I will be able to put it to good use this week while digging out from this freakin blizzard :mega_shok:

Top-100 offensive tackle Drew Richmond, an Ole Miss commitment from Memphis (Tenn.) University School and one of UT’s longtime top in-state targets, has started to show renewed interest in the Vols over the past couple of weeks and now appears to be back in play for Tennessee. Jones is expected to travel to Memphis at some point this week to visit with Richmond, and the state’s No. 2 prospect in the 247Sports Composite currently is believed to be leaning toward taking an official visit to Knoxville this weekend. Richmond went on his official visit to Ole Miss over the weekend, and he said Sunday after the visit that he “could see myself anywhere,” hardly closing the door on other teams.

Richmond hasn’t even ruled out perhaps extending his recruitment beyond signing day, although he said that’s “still up in the air” after Alabama landed Top247 offensive tackle Isaiah Prince on Friday. If Richmond chooses to postpone his final decision until after signing day, it likely would be to visit the Crimson Tide, and they now might not be a serious contender for him after adding Prince, who became the sixth offensive lineman in Alabama’s class. Regardless of which other teams remain in the picture, though, Richmond once again seems to be giving Tennessee legitimate consideration.

“i don’t think he will go past signing day anymore. He and his parents are ready to get everything over with. I know his mom and dad are getting pretty worn out by this process. I am sure that drew it too. It has been a long process. He just wants to go on these visits and see what theses schools have to offer him," said richmond's assistant coach, glenn rogers. “i think he is going to try to hit both schools. He is going to hit tennessee one day and then alabama the next and then come home. That is what he was talking about last week and right now i think that is going to be the plan. I think that is what he wants to do. I think it would be tennessee first and then alabama on saturday, but it has not been etched in stone yet.”

richmond was in oxford over the weekend as the rebels' staff attempts to nail down their prize lineman commit.

“he had a good time with some of his ex-teammates and also laremy tunsil, he was with him a lot and talked to him a lot and i think that the staff did a good job this weekend with the recruits and their families," said rogers. "i think that he knows how ole miss feels. Ole miss has done a good job of letting him know how important he is to them. His family knows the ole miss staff better than anybody. Their staff has been around probably more than the other staffs. I think his mom and dad are comfortable with the staff and the environment down there. He is still committed to ole miss and he is going to see how this next weekend goes and go from there.”
