At 6'4”, he possesses the frame and wingspan that college coaches look for in modern outside linebackers. Ruffin moves extremely well in space and shows the ability to run sideline-to-sideline in pursuit of the football. His athletic traits allow him to drop comfortably into coverage and match up with tight ends and running backs. When attacking downhill, he flashes burst that helps him close gaps quickly. Ruffin also uses his length effectively to disrupt passing lanes and contest throws over the middle. As his physical strength continues to develop, he has the potential to become a disruptive force on the edge. His blend of size, range, and mobility makes him a linebacker prospect to monitor in the <strong>2028 class</strong>.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:html --> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Check out Sophomore Highlights by Omar Ruffin on <a href="https://twitter.com/Hudl?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@hudl</a> <a href="https://t.co/DTRK9Fwo19">https://t.co/DTRK9Fwo19</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/hudl?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#hudl</a></p>&mdash; Coach Josey (@Coach_Josey) <a href="https://twitter.com/Coach_Josey/status/2033729615848493433?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">March 17, 2026</a></blockquote> <!-- /wp:html --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2102591"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69b949db31df4"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Andre Westry is a young defensive back who already gained valuable varsity experience as a freshman at William Penn. On film, he shows quick feet and natural change-of-direction ability that allows him to mirror receivers in coverage. Westry plays with impressive confidence for a young prospect and is not afraid to challenge routes at the catch point. His instincts stand out when the ball is in the air, as he quickly reacts and closes space on receivers. He shows solid hip mobility which helps him transition smoothly from backpedal to pursuit. Westry also competes well in run support and does not shy away from contact despite his size. With another offseason in the weight room, his physical development should elevate his playmaking ability even further. Heading into next season, he is a strong candidate to lock down the <strong>#1 defensive back spot</strong> for William Penn.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:html --> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">A couple clips from my freshman season 🎥🏈 <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/StudentAthlete?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#StudentAthlete</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Football?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#Football</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/NextUp?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#NextUp</a><a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Moretocome?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#Moretocome</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/DB?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#DB</a> <a href="https://t.co/PRRZSBQgct">pic.twitter.com/PRRZSBQgct</a></p>&mdash; Andre Westry (@AndreWestry) <a href="https://twitter.com/AndreWestry/status/2033619587120382164?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">March 16, 2026</a></blockquote> <!-- /wp:html --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
