Andrew Ruffin is already a tone-setting tackler for West Georgia
In the 2026 season, West Georgia linebacker Andrew Ruffin opened with a team-high 9 tackles against Chattanooga and has quickly shown up as an active, downhill run defender who can finish plays. He was a third-leading tackler for Albany State in 2025, which points to reliable production rather than a one-game flash. At 6-foot-0 and 211 pounds, he looks like a sturdy, experienced junior with good pursuit energy and enough playmaking juice to matter on Saturdays. If your team wants a physical, assignment-solid linebacker who plays with urgency, Ruffin is worth a serious look.
