Bob Ruff brings veteran edge-setting punch to Virginia Tech
In the 2004 season, Bob Ruff was a senior defensive end for Virginia Tech at 6'1" and 248 pounds, with prior seasons showing dependable production and a reputation as a steady, versatile lineman rather than a flashy stat collector. The differentiator is toughness: he was described as a dependable performer who could play multiple defensive line spots, and his profile suggests a high-floor fit for teams valuing discipline, leverage, and workmanlike consistency over pure measurables. If you want a reliable trench grinder who does the dirty work, Ruff checks that box.
