OL Richardson draws national power offer

Wheaton, Ill., offensive tackle prospect Dace Richardson (6-foot-6, 300 pounds) is still seeing a ripple effect from his May evaluation period, and this Rivals100.com four star ranked prospect has landed an offer from co-national champion USC.

“The coaches from USC called my head coach (Ron Muhitch) on Friday and they told him that they were finally able to sit down and watch my junior tape. They told him that they were very impressed with the tape, and that they were going to send me a scholarship offer in the mail this week."

"I'm pretty excited about getting an offer from USC, no question about it. A lot of my family is in California, and to have an option of playing on the West Coast is just great."

Richardson will be finishing up his last final exam on Monday, then he will also begin getting ready for his senior season as well as making several unofficial visits. "I'm really just working hard right now, i want to play around 290-295 pounds this season and I'm getting very close to that target weight. I'm looking at making unofficial visits to Michigan and Iowa, then my Mom and I will be visiting both Tennessee and LSU this summer. In July, we're thinking of making unofficial visits to both UCLA and USC."
