Michigan State basketball star Jase Richardson partners with Chipotle
Michigan State basketball star Jase Richardson partners with Chipotle Former Michigan State basketball star Jase Richardson has partnered with a big-time restaurant chain. Richardson posted on Tuesday that he has "Ready for the next step with" Chipotle. The post included "#ChipotlePartner" which would suggest Richardson has signed some type of advertising or marketing deal with the well-known and popular burritos, tacos and bowls chain restaurant. Check out the post from Richardson below: Richardson is moving on to the NBA after a stellar true freshman season at Michigan State this past year. He averaged over 12.1 points per game and shot above 40% from three-point range, which has landed him as a fringe lottery pick in the NBA Draft later this month. Richardson was a fan favorite during his lone season at Michigan State, and I'm sure this deal will only help boost that for those who also enjoy Chipotle. If anything, it'll at least put a little extra dough in Richardson's pockets and I'm sure result in some free burritos as well.
