About DeArian
Expert Analysis
Cooper Morreale | Prep Redzone Scout
DeArian “Juice” Riley is a dominant threat outside who’s found a ton of success at Sylacuga the last two seasons.
“Riley is incredibly athletic. At 6’2 185, he possesses a ton of speed and elusiveness. He’s a monster after the catch, if he hits the open field- good luck stopping him. He can completely separate from opposing defenses with how well he accelerates and moves with the ball in his hands.
I love watching Riley attack the ball. He does a great job using his size and hands to fight off DBs and bring it in. I’m really impressed with how he can make plays through contact- he’s a strong wideout who doesn’t shy away from big hits. You can see it on tape, he’ll do whatever it takes to come down with the ball. It’s awesome to watch.”
Riley was unstoppable this past year and has been picking up significant collegiate interest as a result. I’m excited to see what he’ll do this upcoming fall. I think he has a massive senior season ahead of him.

It’s a fitting nickname for Riley, who does indeed have plenty of juice in his game. Has the size and athleticism to impact each segment of the field, but it’s his playmaking skills with the ball in his hands that stand out to me. He is a broad-shouldered, strong athlete who can stay on his feet through contact and power through weak tackling attempts. He accelerates to his top speed quickly, helping him shoot past tackling angles and separate. He has tacked on a few D1 offers this month, but still someone worth tracking.
