We’ve written about Ruth a few times since June, when I first came across him at the Future Stars Game week. Ruth was a star on both sides of the ball for team North Carolina, and it was very obvious from the first practice that he was arguably the top talent regardless of class on North Carolina. As a former defensive lineman I say this gritting my teeth, but I almost wish his athleticism wasn’t “wasted” on an interior guy. He’s so fast, quick and disruptive that I can only imagine what he’d be like as a Linebacker or Running Back. I think the best comparison I can give is NFL Hall of Famer, Warren Sapp. Certainly not the tallest at 5-foot-11/6-foot, but hands down one of the most athletic. Heck, his nickname is “Big Nasty”…you tell me how you think he plays.
