CINCINNATI — Early signing day has passed, and the Bearcats are staying busy with offers in the 2024 class.

They sent a pair to four-star running backs starting with Kevin Riley, out of Tuscaloosa County (Alabama).

According to 247Sports Composite, Riley is the 256th-ranked recruit nationally and the 21st-ranked running back. ESPN has him ranked 214th and 20th among running backs.

He holds 10 offers from schools like Auburn, Georgia, and Arkansas. UC head coach Scott Satterfield offered him while at Louisville, and On3 had them as the favorite to sign Riley on their last update.

The 5-foot-11, 195-pound spark plug can make something out of nothing in the hole. He is a patient runner that can cut on a dime—with good not great speed. The acceleration is his most impressive trait and helps him get through muddy holes that would normally be tackles.

Check out some highlights of the versatile back.

The other running back offer went out to David Enziomume out of North Cobb (Georgia).

According to On3 Consensus, Enziomume is the 259th-ranked player nationally and the 26th-ranked athlete. He holds 15 offers from schools like Illinois, Clemson, and Auburn.

He is another player that Satterfield offered at Louisville.

At 6-foot, 200 pounds, Enziomume is a similar build to Riley, with even better receiving chops. The junior is a powerful downhill runner with great hands and nice route-running skills for his age.

He has all the makings of a good outside zone runner and can split wide in dynamic packages. The receiving matters less than the running though. Satterfield hasn't had a 20-plus catch running back in the past three seasons.

Enziomume thrives on outside rushes and likes to lower his shoulder and blast through people in the open field. He does a great job of timing the edge and cutting back for ideal extra yardage. Both players would be great additions to the 2024 class.
