Richard Scott Richard Scott 5'10" | 180 lbs | RB U.M.S. Wright | 2028 State AL is an every-down back for UMS-Wright who’s landed as our #8 RB and #64 overall prospect in the class.

“Scott is an incredibly versatile back who can line up and produce on any play. He has great speed, vision, and contact balance as a runner, and a reliable set of hands he uses to consistently haul in passes all over the field. When you combine that with his physicality, it makes him a dangerous addition in the backfield.

I think what really separates Scott as a pass catcher is how explosive he is. It doesn’t matter if it’s a screen or a checkdown, he’s going to use his speed and burst to turn upfield and get the first down. I’m really excited to watch him this next season. He’s a really complete RB already as a sophomore.

I’m a big fan of Scott and look forward to his junior season next fall. He’s a really talented player with a bunch of potential. Be sure to watch some of his film below:

Scoot’s balanced production (400+ rushing and 400+ receiving yards) reflects true multi-phase utility. As a runner, he remains disciplined between the tackles, rarely drifting horizontally without purpose. He shows enough lateral elasticity to squeeze hidden yards but defaults to efficient north-south finishes.

As a receiver, his transition speed stands out. He eliminates the catch-to-run delay that often allows defenders to close space. His screen-game patience — allowing blocks to establish leverage before accelerating — shows spatial processing beyond surface athleticism. Scoot’s versatility increases play-calling flexibility, which multiplies offensive unpredictability.
