  Draft Scout by Conference









  Mazin Richards felt like he had something to prove after emerging as one of the best defensive ends at the Division II level the last two years. The former Eastern New Mexico standout will get that opportunity at North Texas. Richards entered the NCAA transfer portal this spring after being named the Lone Star Conference Defensive Lineman of the Year. New Mexico State and a host of teams that compete at the Football Championship Subdivision level quickly offered a scholarship to Richards, who passed on those opportunities to commit to North Texas on Sunday.

"I was going to visit Tarleton and a couple of other FCS schools, but when I got on campus at UNT, it felt like home," Richards told the Denton Record-Chronicle on Sunday. "The opportunity to play at the FBS level in front of my family and 30,000 fans was something I couldn't turn down." Richards, who is 6-foot-2 and 230 pounds, has two seasons of eligibility remaining. He played at Burleson Centennial, where he set program records for sacks in a game (four), a season (13) and a career (17). Richards landed at a Division II school because he was undersized as a 200-pound defensive end. He quickly matured once he got to the college level and became an impact player at Eastern New Mexico. - Denton Record
