Rylie Jeffries

to start tell us a little bit about yourself give us your name where you're from and what you do

my name is riley jeffries i'm from luther oklahoma and i'm a professional bull rider

what's your reaction to getting to play big brother oh man being a house guest on big brother this season is the freaking best thing that's ever

happen to me, man. I mean, it's like just, just thinking about it each and every single day

it's cutting down closer and closer. Just being, I mean, why did you want to compete on big brother

Being a house guest, it's, it's just everything I've always dreamed. It's everything I've always

wanted in life. I never expected to be sitting in the freaking DR right now, but here I am and

everything happens for a reason. And, uh, I'm just, I don't know. I just, I feel so blessed

I feel so blessed and, and, ah, man. Yeah. Absolutely. Yeah. I would say, I would say I'm a super fan

My mom and dad are super fans. My brother, my sister, they're all super fans

I mean, they've literally watched it from since season one, you know? And, and I just, just seeing them, it's, it's been like, everybody watches it when everybody

that watches it is like, oh, I want to go do that. I want to go do that. Like, I want to go. And like, I'm here. Right

I get a chance to actually go win this deal. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity

You know what I'm saying? I'm not going to let it slip out of my fingertips. They're going to have to try to yank it

They're going to try to pull this from me as hard as they can. All of y'all out there, to get me out of this place

it's going to be a hard time because I'm here. I'm here to stay. I'm here to win

That's the only reason I'm here. I'm here to win. what makes big brother such a successful show after 25 years it's a house and you bring different

types of individuals into it and then you put them all together and then it's like you see those

types of different people in this world can actually get along and can actually can actually

have a relationship it don't matter what race you are it don't matter what you know what you like or

what you believe in. The only thing that matters is right in that moment. You know, we can't go

anywhere. We can't do anything. We have to be, we have to be with each other. So, you know

either you're going to like each other or you're not. So you're in there for, you're in there for a couple months. So you might as well just make the best of it. You know

I'm, I love everybody. I really do, man. There's, there's not a

there not a person in this world that I don love I ain even met everybody in this world but I love everybody you know What your strategy going into the game So my strategy going into the Big Brother house is just cool calm and collective

I'm going to go in and be myself. I'm not going to be too much or be too little, you know

I'm not going to stand off and make people think I'm like a weirdo

I'm just trying to, you know, exclude myself. I want to be, I want to surround myself

I'm not like the type, usually the type of person that is a follower

But in this game, you kind of got to be a follower. You kind of got to follow, go with the flow

So I'm just going to go with the flow. My strategy is to just be myself, compete how I compete

I'm not going to, I got different types of stuff, you know

I know when to kind of just throw some competitions or whatever or to keep my safety in the house, you know

I've been watching it for so long that I've picked different pieces

and different people out of the show and took the good in what helped them out of their season

and put it into, you know, trying to put it into one person

So we'll see how it goes. We'll see how it happens. Tell us a little bit about your life in the outside world

and how that has prepared you for Big Brother. I'm from Luther, Oklahoma

I'm a small-town guy, small-town kid with some big old dreams. I wouldn't say I'm a kid. I'm 27

so but um yeah i'm my whole life i've i've just i've grown up and i've hunted and i've fished you

know and and um just a lot of stuff that you don't quit just shows you to don't quit you know and

to just keep on going after what you want even if it is that trophy buck or if it is that

trophy bass you're looking for your prs you know uh just don't ever quit with what you want that's

You know, growing up, that's what kind of my town, my home, really shows me in life

And my mom and dad, they've done the best they can to just make me into the man that I am today

And, you know, I couldn't thank them enough. My mom and dad, they've really pushed me and pushed me to just be respectful

and be, you know, appreciative of others and others' feelings. and just growing up there has really taught me really a lot

We don't have a lot. We got a Sonic and some convenience stores

two convenience stores, and we had a Walmart market, but it got taken away

so now we got a Dollar General market. We still get eggs and our groceries and stuff there a little bit

What are you bringing to the show that nobody has seen before What will I bring to the show A bull riding son of a b that means business baby I don know if y ever had a bull rider on this show but you know I mean business

I know what I want. So that's what I bring to the show. I bring the damn determination, baby, the grit, and I ain't letting go

They're gonna have to try like hell to get me out of this damn house

I promise you. It ain't gonna be easy. why will you win big brother yeah i just i think i have what it takes to win big brother because i

have the mindset i've ridden bulls for 15 years and what doesn't kill you makes you stronger i've

been thrown been bucked off i've been thrown down broken legs jaw twice you know and i haven't quit

i'm gonna go into the big brother house fully as myself and i'm not hiding anything at all

What are your biggest weaknesses? Some of my weaknesses. A pretty woman coming in and just making me believe everything she says

I don't know. I believe people until they give me a reason not to believe them

So you could literally just sit here and bullshit your way through me, and I'll believe you

Until I get that reason to not really believe you. Would you be open for a showmance

love knows no boundaries man i mean if uh if a woman comes in and my heart

sees what it sees and loves what it loves and feels what it feels uh you know that that's that's

for time to tell that's for the bb house to tell you know i don't know what's going to step in that

door so i don't know what kind of women are going to be out there but i know what i'm looking for

i'm you know i'm looking for for the same amount of genuine love and care and just you know what i

have to give what I bring to the table that's what I expect in return I know nobody's perfect I know

not everybody's the same or whatnot but just like me and just like you and just like everybody else

out here in the world they they know what they deserve they know what they want will you be more

of a hero or a villain in the house I'm a hero I think I'll be a hero I don't want to I'm not like

I said I'm not a I'm not a mean person I'm not a the type of guy that's like to go out and just

you know get my revenge or get like this or get like that like man just be happy you know like I

want everybody to succeed I don't like I want everybody to win in life I want everybody to

succeed I want everybody to win in life you know that's just the type of person I am so yeah I'd

see myself as a hero what will be your secret weapon in the house beer you can be as mean as you want I gonna kill you with kindness I gonna smile on your face your face I going to love you while you hate me So yeah I going to kill them with kindness and smile my way through everything

even through my pain, even through the freaking slop and the dang

anything I get put up on, you know, I'm going to smile my way through. Because, honestly, I'm just blessed to be here

This is an opportunity of a lifetime. Just even being right here in front of that little small camera right there

like, I'm just blessed. what's on your big brother bucket list my bb bucket list to just yeah to just go in there and

have fun and just be myself and you know i don't i don't want to try to just make i don't want to

try to just go in there and make enemies at all i want to go make friends lifetime friends

this opportunity of a lifetime you know i want to i want to actually walk in here and show people

who riley jeffries is and and what i'm about and how much how much you know love i have in my heart

how much I really appreciate people. I'm not a bad person. You know, bull riders might seem like a little bit of hard butts or whatever

but I got a soft heart, man. I'm a people pleaser. I love people

I love helping people. I love helping kids. Yeah, so that's the way I am, man

I just want to make everybody proud. I've met, like, a lot of people, and they're just like, man

I've never met a guy like you before in my life, you know. And I'm just trying to be myself

I got a lot of energy. I got a lot of positivity I don't like negativity

I don't like negative I like being just positive I like smiling if there's ever like an argument in the house or something

I'll probably start laughing because it's just funny to me you know

I just I don't like negativity I don't like I don't like sad or harsh moments

I know there's gonna be a lot of that because I can't control anything by any means

but um yeah I don't know I'm just a happy person all the time really

I like to think I'm a happy person What are some standout moments for you from the past 25 years of Big Brother

Some of the best moments are just seeing the people win, you know, just seeing the people who really strategize and compete to the very end because they know what they want

That's some of the best moments to ever see, you know, like especially winning the competitions whenever they need to be won and just seeing the people go up into the HOH room and getting to see like, you know

pictures or their family or or just you know reading certain things i love that those type

of moments are the most heart-filled moments and that's kind of what i live for i live for the

heart-filled moments life life isn't as serious as we make it but it is what we make it if that

makes sense you know
