Meet the miniature motivator who brings joy and inspiration to Coach Dillingham’s world and his wife, Briana.

Who is Kenny Dillingham’s son?

Briana and Kenny have a three-year-old son named Kent who was born in October 2021. Recently, the world saw him in a football jersey during a game. There is an interesting story about the name Kent. It’s also said that if they had a girl instead of a boy, the name would have been similar to Briana and not sound like Dad’s name. Briana looks after Kent during Dad’s busy days.

She always admires her husband’s hard work and skilled job. She said, “You listen to him walk through how his brain is working and you’re like, ‘I don’t get how that adds up. He can do crazy math.” Who is Briana, you may ask? Let’s introduce you to Dillingham’s wife.

Who is Kenny Dillingham’s wife?

Before staying with Kenny through his ups and downs and being with him to get through it, Briana met him during their senior year at Chaparral High School. And interestingly, they both enrolled at Arizona State University after school. During this time, she was part of the varsity dance team when Dillingham took a job as the assistant to the ASU coach, Todd Graham.

And the days of love turned into being with each other for their whole lives. Briana has been a homemaker and supporter of Kenny. They got hitched in 2018. Talking about the husband, Briana said, “Literally, from day one, I don’t even think he was an assistant yet, and he would talk to me about it. To have the opportunity to do it now is absolutely unreal.”

As Kenny Dillingham embarks on his historic journey as the youngest Power Five head coach, he does so with the love and support of his family. Though his professional accomplishments are undoubtedly impressive, it’s clear that his greatest joy comes from being a devoted husband and father to his child.

As Dillingham navigates the challenges and triumphs of his high-profile role, he’ll undoubtedly be drawing inspiration from the tiny but mighty individuals who bring him the most joy – Briana and Kent.
