RICHMOND SPIDERS FOOTBALL
PROGRAM OVERVIEW
Located in Virginia's capital city, Richmond fields a 90-player football roster competing at the FCS level within the Atlantic 10 Conference during the fall season. Founded in 1830, the University of Richmond serves approximately 3,914 students and maintains one of the smaller enrollments among FCS programs. Head coach Russ Huesman directs a program that balances competitive ambitions with the academic mission characteristic of a selective private institution in the Colonial Athletic Association footprint.
Huesman's roster operates with fewer total players than many FCS counterparts, requiring efficient depth management and development of versatile athletes who can contribute across multiple positions. The Spiders compete within a conference structure that includes programs from both the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic regions, positioning Richmond within a geographically strategic athletic landscape. As an FCS program, Richmond competes in the second tier of college football while maintaining Division I standing, attracting student-athletes who prioritize the combination of competitive football and rigorous academics that characterizes the university's profile.
