Lincoln Riley Wife Caitlin Buckley
Lincoln Riley is married to his wife Caitlin Buckley. She is also known as the First Lady of the University of Oklahoma.
Lincoln and Riley exchanged their wedding vows on 14th July 2007. They started dating since their high school
Caitlin considers the players of Oklahoma Sooners as her own family members. She refers to her husband coaching the boys instead of the OU’s players.
The couple raises two daughters of their own, named Sloan and Stella Riley. And in addition, they also look after 115 Sooners boys.
Caitlin has always been the footballer’s wife, and hence she never had to make any adjustment when he was promoted as a coach for the team.
The player’s partner thought that he would be a high school coach while they recently started their relationship. But Riley soon got the coach position at the university in 2015.
Riley was a freshman at Muleshoe High school, Texas, whereas Caitin was a senior student of Dimmit High School, which was 45 miles away from Muleshoe. The Texas tech and Dimmit were rivals at the time.
They got married after Caitlin graduated in 2006 and Lincoln in 2005. She was a kindergarten teacher before she gave birth to her daughter. So being around kids came naturally to her.
The couple also is used to hosting players for dinner at their house. Sloan, who is 5 years now, often comes with her dad to the practice.
Their mother also brings her two kids to practice to take pictures. The family atmosphere can always be seen inside the Sooners field.
Caitlin is always there to witness how hardworking the players are. And when they lose the game, she feels bad about how they don’t reap the hard work.
We can always witness the calm demeanor of the coach even during the toughest of the time. And his partner may be credited for this. She understands how tough the work can get and is always there to support him.
We assume Caitlin has Coach Riley back when during this time when they will be facing their long-time rival.
