Last month, Kansas football coach David Beaty landed a pretty big prospect in three-star wide receiver Reggie Roberson from Mesquite, Texas.

Beaty recently sent Roberson a video that shows he is cooler than any other coach in America — Beaty was riding a hoverboard. Roberson was only too happy to share it on Twitter.

Many other people thought Beaty’s video was awesome.
