Quick Getting to Know You Interview with Cisco QB Richard Lagow
Written by Ryan Wright
When National Signing Day 2016 nears that first Wednesday in February watch for the name Richard Lagow, because Division-I colleges in need of a quarterback with the potential to step in and start right away will put this Texas junior college gunslinger in high demand.
The Cisco College signal caller has quickly become one of the more inquired about quarterbacks out of the junior college ranks. Lagow threw for 2,900 yards with nine touchdowns in 2014 after signing with UConn out of Plano Senior High and a redshirt season at Oklahoma State.
We quizzed Richard on all things football previously including his most recent unofficial visit to USC but wanted to know more. In an ongoing Recruiting News Guru Q&A “getting to know you” series we asked a few questions to find out what Richard is like off the field.
