Full Release
Richmond, Va. — University of Richmond redshirt senior offensive lineman Ryan Coll has been named to the 2024 Reese's Senior Bowl Watch List, announced Wednesday morning.
The Reese's Senior Bowl is widely regarded as the preeminent college football all-star game and the first stage in the NFL Draft process. The longest continual-running all-star game has taken place in Mobile the past 74 years. More than 900 NFL personnel, including key decision-makers from all 32 teams, and over 1,100 media members from around the country were credentialed last year. In each of the past three years, the Reese's Senior Bowl has had 100 or more players drafted and over 40 percent of the entire draft class, which are both record-setting figures for any all-star game.
All 720 position players (non-specialists) who made the list were evaluated by the Reese's Senior Bowl staff and tape-based grades were logged on hundreds of other senior prospects. Every player on this list is eligible to participate in an all-star game as either a 2019 high school graduate or true four-year player (with five or more games played in three previous seasons).
Last season, Coll and the rest of the offensive line allowed quarterback Reece Udinski to throw for 3,614 yards, becoming just the third UR quarterback to throw for over 3,000 yards in a single season. He threw 29 touchdown passes and rushed in four while being protected by Coll and the line.
Richmond's quick-tempo offense led the CAA in total plays with 990 and was second in total yards with 5,513, averaging 424.1 yards of offense per game in 2022. Richmond was sixth in the CAA in rushing yards with 1,840, while the team's 3,673 passing yards led the conference by over 200. Thanks to Coll and the o-line, Richmond's run game saw 15 touchdowns on the ground and averaged 141.5 yards per game.
Coll, a team captain, has spent the offseason raking in preseason honors including Bluebloods, Phil Steele and Stats Perform All-America as well as Preseason All-CAA nods. Last season Coll earned Phil Steele and AP All-America honors for his contribution to Richmond's best season since 2016 where he played left tackle. He was named the No. 13 returning offensive lineman in the FCS by HERO Sports in June.
Of the more than 700 players named to the Watch List, only 45 came from the FCS. The Coastal Athletic Association had seven players make the list, second only to the Missouri Valley Conference with 12 selections.
