Prior to his time in Birmingham, he worked as a student recruiting assistant at Ole Miss from 2020 through his graduation in 2023. He earned a degree in business administration from Ole Miss in 2023.

"We're excited to have Brayden Curry join our Player Personnel staff on the offensive side of the ball," said General Manager Andrew Bevill. "Brayden has a great eye for talent and knows our footprint well. He brings a lot experience from working at UAB the last two years and creating a base in the state of Alabama. I look forward to working alongside him and helping bring in talented players to our program."

Galpin comes to Statesboro after one season at Kansas State as the program's Assistant Director of On-Campus Recruiting. In that role, Galpin assisted with all official and unofficial visits to Manhattan, collaborating with various departments within K-State Athletics, the K-State campus and the community. In addition, she also assisted in the on-boarding process and transition to K-State for all incoming high school freshmen and transfers.

Galpin spent the previous two seasons as the Director of On-Campus Recruiting and an Operations Assistant at the University of West Georgia where she directed and supervised all planning of official and unofficial visits to campus. She also helped plan and execute football camps, prospect days and junior days, while she helped transitioned incoming players both athletically and academically.

Galpin earned her undergraduate degree in mass communications from the University of West Georgia in 2021, while she obtained her master's degree in sports management from West Georgia in 2023.

"We're excited to have Riley Galpin join our recruiting staff and bring her back home to the state of Georgia," Bevill said.
