Ricky Spence brings proven pass-rush production and disruptive upside to Morehead State’s defensive front
Spence enters 2026 as a junior defensive lineman for Morehead State with a real track record of disruption: in 2023 at Birmingham-Southern, he posted 54 tackles, 18.5 tackles for loss, 11 sacks, four quarterback hurries and a pass breakup, then followed with five games at Huntingdon in 2024 and six tackles, two sacks and 2.5 TFLs.[4][7] At 6-foot-1, 240 pounds, he profiles as an active, effort-driven edge presence who wins with burst, leverage and backfield urgency rather than pure size, making him a strong fit for a scheme that values motor and penetration.[1][5][12]
