Football isn’t MSU linebacker Riley Bullough's only passion. Current State’s Scott Pohl talks with Bullough about his country music dreams.

One of the rising stars of the MSU football team is junior linebacker Riley Bullough. His football pedigree is well known: his grandfather Hank Bullough played at MSU in the 50s; his father, Shane, was a Spartan in the 80s; his brother Max was here through the 2013 season, and another brother, Byron, is a redshirt freshman at MSU. Beyond that, his other grandfather, Jim Morse, played at Notre Dame, and three uncles also played college football.

Last spring, Current State’s Scott Pohl talked with Riley Bullough about his other passion: music. With football season underway now, we thought we’d revisit that conversation and hear a bit of his music.
