Confirmed: Shaq Richardson verbally commits to UCLA

Los Alamitos cornerback Shaquille Richardson – scout.com’s No. 31 cornerback – has committed to UCLA.

Here’s his profile: Shaq Richardson

All reports on the kid are positive, and he had solid stats this year, finishing with six interceptions.

Don’t forget, he’s also the cousin of Serra wideout Paul Richardson, a four-star prospect. Could be a tandem deal coming up.

UPDATE: An inside source at UCLA just told me of Paul Richardson: “He’s close but he’s not ready to pull the trigger. I think he just wants to go on a couple of trips.”
