Richmond originally committed to Ole Miss in September, but decommitted from the Rebels last weekend while on his official visit to Tennessee. He’s the 22nd member of the Volunteers’ current class, and joins four other offensive tackles in the class, including two early enrollees.

Richmond, a Memphis, Tenn., native, and Oakland, Calif., native Jack Jones are the two highest-rated tackles in the class, both ranked in the top 10 in the class at the position.

Tennessee allowed more sacks and tackles for loss than any other team in the SEC in 2014.
