1980 Rookie Profile: Jim Richter

Center
1st Round
North Carolina State
A consensus All-American last year, Jim won the Outland Trophy- the first center ever to win the award and only the second offensive lineman since 1969 so honored. He also brought home the Jacobs Trophy as the outstanding blocker in the Atlantic Coast Conference.
Jim is considered a prime reason why NC State led the conference in rushing yards in 1979 and finished second in '77 and '78.
