Ryan Ruane brings experience, discipline, and linebacker-range instincts to Stony Brook
Ryan Ruane is a veteran defender who has shown value as a smart, assignment-sound linebacker/safety-type piece, with a 2024 Holy Cross season of 23 tackles, 0.5 sacks, and an interception in 12 games while starting nine times. His best differentiators are versatility, communication, and consistency—he has academic-honor-roll credentials, and his background suggests a player coaches can trust to read offenses, fit gaps, and make the routine stop without drama. He looks like a strong fit for a defense that values reliability, maturity, and depth.
