Dilfer is using his connections to get quality players from all over to Lipscomb. They are a top 10 overall team in the state right now, and 3-4 yrs ago they were horrible.
This kid is really good.......and his backup already has D1 offers (class of ‘24)

He was impressive last night against a decent BGA team. You can see his talent flash

Anybody have stats on this kid?

His passing numbers through 10 games are phenomenal: 189 of 228 (82.9%) for 2,433 yards, 34 TDs, and just 1 INT. He's also rushed 29 times for 113 yards & 3 TDs.

His spectacular numbers are a direct result of the preparation and drive that his coach insists is better than anybody else he’s ever been around — including NFL Hall of Famers. “His preparation has been second-to-none,” Dilfer said. “I’ve said it since this offseason. There’s not a player in America, at any level, that has invested more into getting better each week than Luther Richesson. I don’t know where that’s going to take him, but there’s not one. I’ve been with Ray Lewis, Shannon Sharpe and John Lynch. I could go Hall of Famer after Hall of Famer. I’ve never seen anybody attack getting better than Luther. And it shows up in his game… His process is flawless. He’s on a mission, and we’re trying to give him the tools to be the best he can be.”

Quarterbacks, more than any other position in sports, are products of their pedigree. Sons of quarterbacks or of coaches often have such a distinct advantage having grown up around the game and benefitted from unique insight and perspective into the job and the game of football. Few, though, have a pedigree like the 6-foot-3, 210-pound Richesson. His dad, Luke, a former Kansas linebacker, was a longtime NFL strength coach who helped the Denver Broncos win a Super Bowl, which enabled then-12-year-old Luther to have a front row seat watching how Peyton Manning practiced and led his team.

“There was a lot of greatness on that team,” Luther told The Athletic. “Peyton was really great to me as a kid. He would throw the ball with me in between stations and talk to me. I was just too young to fully understand it, but being able to see how he led and what leading looked like, how everyone listened to him when he talked and when he broke down the weight room every time — everyone gathered around him and there’s a lot of great lessons to be learned from him.”

Richesson’s mom, Anita, is a former Olympic swimmer who set a world record in the 200-meter breaststroke when she was 15 years old. Being raised by parents whose careers have been so rooted in diligence and discipline certainly can create quite the framework for an aspiring quarterback. “Growing up, discipline actually wasn’t a thing that my parents mentioned a lot,” Richesson said. “It was more about, if you’re going to go for something, you better go like hell and go get it. They didn’t care if that meant being a doctor, being someone in sports, being a teacher, being a veterinarian. They just said: ‘One, if you want to go to college, you’ve got to get it paid for. Two, if you’re going to go for something, go all in.’ They also taught me that your word is everything. Don’t ever let someone question your word.”

I don't pretend to be someone who can dissect all the footwork and stuff like that, but he "jumps" out when he's on the field. Watching D2AA closely for years, I watched guys like Wilhoite (sp) from FRA, Patterson from CPA, Izuchukwu from DA, Brant Lawless from NCS.................and this kid is different. Tons of talent on the team and played great against #25 Oakland earlier in the year (a game Lipscomb should have won)

I wouldn’t be mad if we brought him in with Jackson to be our QB’s of the future. I still think we should try and take a portal qb to even if it’s just for depth. We need guys who aren’t scared of competition. Having to go out and compete for your job everyday is what brings out the best in players.

Would be a perfect qb to bring in alongside taven this year with HB leaving. Hope we make the kid a priority and can get him without losing taven!

His RB is going to BC and TE going to Stanford.
Been told that he doesn't have a real favorite right now. That just came from a parent at Lipscomb. Who knows???

I like this kids game better than Jackson's.....he's also being coached by a former Superbowl winning quarterback...this kids got a leg up on the competition. We better throw our hat into the ring early because this kid is not gonna stay unnoticed for very long.

Impressive read. One of the underrated qualities about Peyton Manning was his work ethic and insatiable desire to learn and improve. Combined with his pedigree, I would not be upset if we offered. I have a feeling he’s going to blow up.

Next season is Hendan’s last possible season of eligibility…so not a factor. If Milton stays, then he would have one season to compete. No matter who lands Davis, he’ll have other QBs on the roster.

If Davis is scared of competition then we don’t want him.
