Not sure about Richards, but we'll focus on Vaughters. Not sure what happened there, in terms of impact. Early in the season I thought for sure he was on the Skov development curve--loved the way he undressed that Arizona RT early in the season--but he does seem to have petered out. Maybe it's an issue that we're so much deeper than usual. For example, some people were saying Vaughters might eventually bump Trent Murphy. Don't look now, but Murphy's only one sack behind Chase Thomas. So maybe there's just no room? Or maybe the coaches were speculating similarly (that Vaughters > Murphy) and ended up being surprised?

That said, David Shaw did praise his development--http://www.cbssports.com/collegefootball/rapid-reports/post/15979336--so maybe it's something we're missing.
