Bio
2018 Second-Team Academic All-Big 12
Massive offensive lineman who was a starter in 2018 before losing the final four games of the regular season to injury.
2018 (Senior): A second-team Academic All-Big 12 honoree ... Played in eight games before injury took away the remainder of his regular season, though he did return to action in the Cowboys’ Liberty Bowl victory over Missouri ... Started the Missouri State and South Alabama games at right guard and the Iowa State, Kansas State and Texas games at right tackle ... The Cowboys averaged 205.8 rushing yards in the games that Richards started ... Served as a game captain against South Alabama ... Helped pave the way for one of the best team rushing performances of the Mike Gundy era (2005-present), when he opened up holes for a 431-yard rushing day for the Pokes in the season opener against Missouri State.
2017: Redshirt.
2016 (Junior): Saw some spot duty in four games as a junior.
Junior College: Played for coach Joe Forchtner … A key contributor on an offense that ranked 11th nationally with 4,759 yards during his sophomore season … That mark is more impressive when noting that it improved from No. 33 during the year prior with 3,153 yards on the season.
High School: Played for coach Darren Ward at Crescent Heights … Three-time Calgary HS All-Star at offensive line … 2012 Crescent Heights Lineman of the Year … Also played basketball and competed in track and field.
Personal: Shane Richards was born June 4, 1995, in Kingston, Jamaica … Son of Daniel and Opel Richards.
