Ethan Ray brings NFL-sized frame and local toughness to Youngstown State’s offensive line
In the 2026 season, Youngstown State junior offensive lineman Ethan Ray is a 6-foot-4, 300-pound interior blocker from Warren, Ohio, with a background that screams physicality and versatility. He was a redshirt in 2024, and his high-school resume included first-team All-MVAC honors, a Northeast District honorable mention, and eye-popping production on both sides of the ball, including 64 pancake blocks and 73 tackles. The appeal here is simple: he looks like a grinder with hometown edge, positional flexibility, and the kind of strength profile that fits a hard-nosed run game.
