Assuming health, what do you think is his season result? All-American? 1st team All-ACC? Sophomore slump?
Of course, a lot will depend on who's getting him the ball and how. Some things to consider:
- Richards just turned 19 a few months ago. For comparison, Calvin Ridley will turn 23 this season.
- Richards excels on underneath routes just as well as vertical routes. We've watched him execute both at an elite level. His route tree is limitless.
- Richards seems to be a focused dude who wants to be great. While he's already gained size, if you meet his pops (see the gene pool), you'll probably wonder just how big Richards can get.
- Whether or not opposing defenses focus on him game in, game out, it's Richt and crew's jobs to move him around the board to get him matchups and clear out for his teammates.
