 Max Richardson, Boston College, Player News


  Last January, Max Richardson decided to forgo the NFL draft and return to the Heights for his fifth year of eligibility, citing his absence from Boston College's bowl game due to a hamstring injury as his reason for staying. With the full 2020 season under his belt, Richardson chose to make the jump to the pro level, announcing on Tuesday that he would be declaring for the 2021 NFL Draft. The announcement came via Richardson's Instagram account. Richardson was a mainstay of the Eagles' defense over the last three seasons, ranking in the top three on the team in tackles all three years. He finished his BC career with 315 total tackles and 32 tackles for loss. His 2019 season was particularly prolific, as he racked up a team-leading 107 tackles and 14 tackles for loss. Both marks were team highs that season. - The Heights

  When Boston College linebacker Max Richardson decided to return for a fifth season, he never could have imagined the last year of his college career playing out in a pandemic. The first time he stepped on the field at Alumni Stadium was in 2016. There was an announced crowd of 22,728 on hand to watch the Eagles beat Wagner. The stands were empty Saturday for Richardson's final game as an Eagle, a 34-27 win over Louisville, but he was no less appreciative. "I've done a lot of self-reflection these past couple of weeks and it's been a completely interesting journey for me," Richardson said.

"I really appreciate what has happened in the past. Looking back to my first game and Alumni and looking at all the yellow T-shirts in the student section, it's really special that I've been able to go on this long journey here and I really appreciate all the fans and everything that goes into a game and Alumni. "Of course, this year's have been a little different, but there's been some great memories." Richardson was one of a group of 18 seniors who were honored before the game. He returned to the Heights after putting together a season that earned him All-ACC second-team honors a year ago. - Boston Globe

  Max Richardson and Isaiah McDuffie fuel the defense: When McDuffie was out last season, the one person who probably missed him the most was Richardson. The two linebackers are the glue that binds the defense together. They wreak havoc and play with an aggression that Hafley wants to see. They combined for 12 tackles against Georgia Tech. Last year, Richardson finished third in the ACC with 108 tackles. This season, he's third in the conference, averaging 9.7 per game. One spot ahead of him is McDuffie at 9.8. - Boston Globe

  Max Richardson established a dominant presence on the football field last season and secured a place alongside the outstanding Boston College linebackers in this century. Richardson, a 6-0, 230-pound, redshirt junior weakside linebacker from Duluth, Georgia, led the ACC with 72 solo tackles, was third in total tackles (108) and 30th nationally with 14.5 tackles for a loss. He had five games with 10 or more tackles and was voted All-ACC second team. Richardson thinks he can do better next season after learning the new system instituted by new head coach Jeff Hafley. "The most important thing to my development last year was focusing on the details and all aspects of the game," said Richardson.

"That, with working hard to be bigger, stronger and faster. I had a great linebackers' coach (Bill Sheridan) who really taught me the mental aspects of the game and I was playing with a great bunch of linebackers. It was a great experience and I'm hoping to build on that next year." New linebackers coach Sean Duggan played the position at BC from 2011-2014 and came from St. Xavier High School in Cincinnati - the same institution that produced All-ACC backers Luke Kuechly and Steven Daniels. Through Duggan's initiative, Richardson has made a case study of Kuechly, that rare individual who competed at the highest levels of the NCAA and the NFL through intellect and brute force. - Boston Herald
