"'You need to get your butt back to campus and trust that things are gonna work out. You can't walk away from school  you've come this far. It's time to stick it out '"  Pelini  said  he  told Richmond during the visit.
Richmond and his legal guardians spoke with  Pelini  and YSU President Jim Tressel about joining the team after he enrolled.  Pelini  researched Richmond's past before meeting him  then said he made no promises and told Richmond he'd have to earn good grades and stay out of trouble to be on the team.
"He stuck with it "  Pelini  said. "He went over and above. He knew he had no room for error."
Richmond began practicing with the team as a defensive end after Youngstown State's loss in the Football Championship Subdivision title game in January.  Pelini  said Richmond  a walk-on player with no scholarship  showed talent but was a "work in progress."
