Ok all you. There is an article about MR and him being "College Football's Sneakiest Cool Coach". This quote from Bookie should calm a few fears.

“He's a man of morals and principles,” Brendan Radley-Hiles‍, a Nebraska commit and one of the top cornerback prospects in the country for next year’s class, said of Riley. “When his guys, in which he cares a tremendous amount for, put in the work and deserve praise, he has no problem with saying or showing his appreciation towards them.

“He simply values being a genuine, caring human being more than just a head ball coach. It's what separates him.”

Here's a link to the article from Hail Varsity. Good read.

Bookie to me is as N as they come. The fact he wants to play with his cousin, his relationship with Donte, known since he was 10 I believe. He is also close with Riley and his wife. He had some good talks with coach Milt before he passed. Show me another school that can offer any of what he has here. Not worried, never was. GBR

This is a good article and hopefully more recruits and their parents will give weight to the character issue. A sneaky cool guy isn't necessary. A good character guy ought to go a lot farther.

There are a lot of good character guys out there... the sneaky cool factor adds to the Riley mystique! :)

The fact that Bookie thinks he's both is awesome!

Hope it becomes sneaky cool clear to other recruits as well...

If I was in the kids position I would take all five visits and get all the butt kissing stroked upon me as I could because once you hit the school its all what have you done for me lately. It reminds me of my army recruiter. They kiss your butt and lie their a$$ off and once you hit boot camp the DI tells you, "Your recruiter isnt her any more girls, your A$$ is mine!"
