Didn't realize Ruffin was a football player for Troy before coming to NT. Anyone know if he still has aspirations of playing on the gridiron?

Ruffin was a DB at Troy. He lead the state of Nebraska in inteceptions and was allstate two years. He also was one of the top basketball players in the state at that time ( the only athelete to start in football and basketball as a freshman in Nebraska's history). He attended the same high school as Ahman Green and Gale Sayers. I lost track of him as of late.

Ruffin's picture is on the wall at the "five star" camp in Pittsburg along with Labron James, Michael Jordan, Kareem and others. He was the one-on-one champ that year. Evidently he was a star at one time.

We need to win the conference tourney, otherwise there is no at-large bid for us.

NT will need to pull their fam base together in order to do big things. NT fams seem to be waiting on the train instead of being a driving force like Duke and others.

Wonder how UNT was able to get Ruffin as he played for Troy in football and received letters form: Nebraska, Iowa, Iowa State, Colorado, Oklahoma out of HS. Guess we never hold our own in recruiting! Oh well, I guess DD and JJ just ring their hands together and give up.

GO MEAN GREEN!!!
