When you're 34 years old, single, and bear a resemblance to movie star Ryan Gosling - as Texas Tech head coach Kliff Kingsbury does - chances are, you're going to attract some attention. 

Appearing on the Dan LeBatard Show on Tuesday, Kingsbury revealed that his good looks have also attributed to his success on the recruiting trail. 

Asked if any of his recruits' single moms had ever flirted with him, Kingsbury replied: "Yeah, yeah that's kind of... you've got to play to your strengths. So I kind of encourage that a little bit. It's part of the deal, man. So, yeah."

Kingsbury also offered his thoughts on the Gosling comparisons.

"I'll take that one," he said. "It can be worse, for sure."
