After posting the most prolific season by a sophomore runner in Mountaineer history, Richardson returns as the squad’s top offensive threat in ‘06 ... is strong enough to run between the tackles, quick enough to beat defenders to the edge and fast enough to break away from the pack in the secondary ... a candidate for all-conference and all-America accolades.
2005: Named third-team all-America by Football Gazette ... first-team all-Southern Conference selection by the league’s coaches and media ... rushed for 1,433 yards, the highest total ever by an ASU sophomore and the third-best mark in Appalachian history regardless of class ... was also ASU’s leading receiver with 52 receptions for 558 yards ... 19 rushing touchdowns fell just one short of John Settle’s record set in 1986 ... 21 total touchdowns (19 rushing, two receiving) and 126 total points both set school records ... ranked 29th nationally in rushing, 18th in all-purpose yards (2,038) and 18th in scoring (126 points) ... became the second-straight Mountaineer to lead the SoCon in all-purpose yardage (DaVon Fowlkes — 2004) ... recorded the 13th-highest single-game rushing output in Appalachian history with 208 yards versus nationally ranked Georgia Southern ... turned in the fifth-best rushing effort in ASU playoff history with 171 yards in opening-round win over Lafayette ... earned two national player of the week awards ... named The Sports Networks’s Offensive Player of the Week after running for 178 yards and three touchdowns versus nationally ranked Coastal Carolina and garnered I-AA.org National Weekly All-Star accolades following performance against Georgia Southern ... broke the 100-yard rushing barrier six times in 15 games (178 vs. CCU, 208 vs. GSU, 109 vs. Chattanooga, 102 vs. Western Carolina, 171 vs. Lafayette, 105 vs. Furman) ... fell just one yard short of rushing for 100 yards in all seven home games (ran for 99 yards in national quarterfinal victory over Southern Illinois) ... averaged 139.9 rushing ypg at home and 57.6 ypg away from Kidd Brewer Stadium ... found the end zone in 11-of-15 contests ... topped 100 all-purpose yards 10 times ... averaged 5.4 yards per rush and 10.7 yards per catch.
2004: Emerged as one of Appalachian’s top rushers after entering fall camp as a relative unknown ... ranked second on the squad with 347 rushing yards, but led the Mountaineers’ with 4.9 yards per rush ... also caught 16 passes for 118 yards ... finished the season with 465 all-purpose yards (42.3 ypg), good for fourth on the squad and second to only wide receiver/kickoff returner Dexter Jackson among ASU freshmen ... saw action in all 11 games and made one start ... ran seven times for 48 yards in collegiate debut at Wyoming ... scored first-career touchdown, a nine-yarder, in romp over Eastern Kentucky ... amassed season highs with 13 carries for 56 yards in triumph over The Citadel ... racked up season-high 67 all-purpose yards (34 rushing, 33 receiving) at nationally ranked Northwestern State ... picked up 53 yards on just eight attempts at No. 2 Georgia Southern ... broke open a season-long 53-yard rush in rout over Elon.
High School: Rushed for 2,225 yards and 36 touchdowns during prep career at East Bladen High School ... garnered 2A all-state recognition as a senior, as well as first-team all-region and all-conference accolades each of his final two seasons ... named East Bladen’s MVP ... coached by Lennon Fisher ... in addition to three football monograms, lettered three times in track and field and twice in baseball.
