  Draft Scout by Conference









  There's something to be said for stability, particularly at the quarterback position. The Central Michigan football team has it in 2022 in Daniel Richardson, the clearcut starter who is referred to by teammates as QB1. He's a sophomore in his fourth year - he redshirted in 2019 and the COVID-shortened 2020 campaign did not count against his eligibility - and now a veteran who last year led his team to nine victories and a win in the Tony the Tiger Sun Bowl. "I think the first thing you like about him is just his love of the game, his love to compete," first-year CMU offensive coordinator/quarterbacks coach Paul Petrino said. "He's really smart, he has great knowledge, he's easy to teach, very coachable. "He's really accurate, he's got a strong arm, he can make all the throws."

It's not as if Richardson - D-Rich to his coaches and teammates - was anointed when he came to Mount Pleasant in 2019 after a brilliant high school career in Miami, where he put up eye-popping numbers playing against some of the best prep competition in the nation. He bided his time behind the veterans early on before claiming the starting job in 2020. An injury ended his season after four games and then in 2021, he found himself coming off the bench early in the Chippewas' 'first four games. The breakout moment came in the fourth quarter of the Chippewas' fourth game of 2021, a 31-27 victory over Florida International. Richardson came out of the bullpen to toss three fourth-quarter touchdown passes and rally his team from a 27-10 deficit. Richardson started every game for the remainder of the season, completing 60.4 percent of his passes for 2,633 yards and 24 touchdowns against just six interceptions. - Central Michigan football
