Richmond starred at Boyd Anderson High in Fort Launderdale, Fla.; Moberly (Mo.) Community College; Kansas State.
Moberly was the first stop, bringing Richmond to the Midwest and to the coach who would guide his college future, Wildcats assistant Dana Altman.
“My mom really loved him,” Richmond said.
Together, Altman and Richmond landed at Kansas State, along with new head coach Lon Kruger.
But Kruger’s pitch won him over.
“We would be coming in together, and he said he’d build the program around me,” Richmond said. “I hadn’t heard that from anybody else. And he said they would perfect my guard skills.”
