Riley Leonard & Benjamin Morrison First Teammates to Sign with Rhoback
Notre Dame is one of college football’s biggest brands and Rhoback knows it.
And now Rhoback U has made some history.
The activewear company has signed Notre Dame quarterback Riley Leonard and All-American cornerback Benjamin Morrison, the first time two teammates have signed deals with Rhoback at the same time.
Rhoback U is also debuting its officially licensed Notre Dame gear with Leonard, who enters his first year with the program after playing his first three seasons at Duke.
"We're thrilled to partner with Riley Leonard as his official apparel sponsor,” stated Rhoback. “As the Notre Dame QB and the new face of Rhoback U, Riley will lead the program this fall, bringing a fresh wave of enthusiasm to collegiate sports. His tenacity and infectious personality made him an obvious choice for us, and we're eager to showcase his strengths in our upcoming 'Earn It' campaign.
“Stay tuned for exciting content that highlights Riley's incredible versatility, talent, and humor. He'll also be unveiling our new licensed Notre Dame collection. We're proud to be on Riley's team as he elevates Rhoback U to new heights."
Leonard is also extremely pleased to be part of the Rhoback U family.
"I am so pumped to work with Rhoback as my official apparel sponsor and become a leading face of their Rhoback U program,” said Leonard. “It's easy to see why their presence in college athletics has grown so much and they continue to be one of the fastest-growing activewear brands in the country.
“Rhoback has the most comfortable gear I’ve ever worn and their media house continues to set the standard with engaging content. I’m a big fan of everything they’re doing in the Notre Dame community — from their social content to their gear. I am grateful to be a part of Team Rhoback and to help lead Rhoback U this season.”
Signing an All-American was also an easy decision for Rhoback, but Morrison’s character made it a perfect fit.
"We're fired up to join forces with Benjamin Morrison as his official activewear apparel sponsor,” Rhoback stated. “As one of the top defensive players in the country, Benjamin will be a central part of Rhoback U, leading the program this Fall.
“From the moment he caught our attention, Benjamin's warm personality and deep love for football set him apart. We're eager to finally introduce him to the Rhoback community. This will be our fourth season collaborating with a Notre Dame athlete, and we're excited to highlight Ben’s remarkable talent as he helps propel Rhoback U to new levels. Be on the lookout for Benjamin’s strong presence in our upcoming 'Earn It' campaign."
Morrison, who has tallied 64 tackles, nine interceptions and 14 passes defended in two seasons at Notre Dame, will be the fifth Notre Dame student-athlete Rhoback has signed.
"Excited is an understatement,” said Morrison. “It’s been my dream to partner with Rhoback since seeing Kyle Hamilton, Michael Mayer and Audric Estime all work with them. It's awesome to have Rhoback as my official activewear apparel sponsor and become a leading face of their Rhoback U program.
“By following in their footsteps, it's easy to see why their presence in college athletics has grown so much and have remained as one of the fastest-growing activewear brands in the country. The team has made me feel like family and I can’t think of a better group to partner with. There’s so much engaging content coming and I am pumped to be a part of Team Rhoback and help lead Rhoback U this season."
A year ago, Rhoback U released weekly videos with its collegiate athletes, as well as weekly videos with former college head coach Ed Orgeron.
Texas quarterback Quinn Ewers was announced earlier this week as another face of Rhoback U for the 2024 season.
