I'm feeling more comfortable with Riley sticking with this class knowing he has family in OH(mom is from Cincinnati, graduate of Princeton)


And vote for Riley on the Whataburger Super Team

I seriously think he is our next great LB and exactly what we need on defense. And Whataburger...that is what I need in my stomach, that place is so good.

Just realized I didn't have Riley in my class review somehow. Aside from Lowe based on need at OT, Riley might be the most important commit we had in '24. It's been a bit since we've had a truly elite LB and I think this kid is the next one (disclaimer that I am stoked about Lee and Alford as well).

“You always look for guys who can see the game at the second level,” Laurinaitis told Eleven Warriors at Rose Bowl media day. “I think one of the hardest things to project in recruiting are edge rushers who are playing off the ball and things are moving really fast with motions, shifts all that. It takes a really unique, really God-given ability to see the game because there’s a lot happening every play. So that, plus his speed, his work ethic, everything his coaches said about him and the way his tape looked really made you feel like, OK.

“You always gotta try and figure out if guys are going to fit your culture and the room that you have. I think all three of our (linebacker signees) were perfect fits.”
