Richardson on his commitment to A&M
Chase Richardson went in-depth on his commitment to Texas A&M with Rivals.
“A big thing for me was Coach Bucky and the Texas A&M staff. I think Coach Bucky can really develop me as a point guard and I will be great in his system with how fast he wants to play because I think it fits the way I want to play point guard. Another thing is the academics at A&M I have an opportunity to get into the Mays Business school which is huge. I also want my family and friends to be able to drive and watch as many games as they can.”
