A three-star Kentucky OL target out of Florida, Daughtry Richardson is headed to Florida State. This is the second recruiting battle that ‘Cats have lost to the ‘Noles this week. On Wednesday, four-star Tennesee quarterback Chris Parson committed to FSU as well.

top-500 prospect in the 247 Sports Composite, Richardson plays for Miami Central High and has had plenty of college suitors. The 6-foot-4 offensive tackle took visits in June to Arizona State, Florida State, Kentucky, and Miami. After his commitment to the Seminoles, FSU is trending towards a top-15 recruiting class as the rebuild continues in Tallahassee.

Kentucky still holds steady with 11 verbal commitments. The Wildcats currently have seven top-500 prospects in the fold and are in the running for some quality offensive line talent. Even with three current commitments — Kiyaunta Goodwin, Grant Bingham, Nikolas Hall — expect the Wildcats to add up to three more players in this class at offensive line. Richardson was one of the prime candidates.

However, four-star Ryan Baer and high three-star Drew Bobo are also players Kentucky is on the hunt for. Meanwhile, top-125 prospect Aamil Wagner remains a possibility.
