Noah Ruggles, Ohio State, Player News

Just over two months after Ohio State ended its season with a College Football Playoff semifinal loss to Georgia, kicker Noah Ruggles sent out a final message to Buckeye fans. As time expired against the Bulldogs in the Peach Bowl, Ruggles missed a 50-ya rd field goal attempt wide left to secure Georgia's place in the national championship game against TCU, beating Ohio State 42-41. "If there is one thing I have learned from my journey it is no matter how dark life seems at times, moments of adversity ha ve provided me an opportunity for unimagined growth, humility and appreciation," Ruggles said in an Instagram video Sunday.He went on to share his gratitude to his coaches and teammates who "inspire him through my own trials," his family who has s acrificed, loved and supported him, and the people behind the scenes who "serve others selflessly." "I've witnessed the truth of Romans 8:28 and I'm humbled by how God rewards all things for the good of those who love him, but have been called according to his purpose," Ruggles continued. "From my very kick as a Buckeye to my very last, I put my faith in God, praying to give him all the glory. So I may not see what he is going to do next, but I've learned to trust him with all of it. I'm a Buckeye for l ife." Ruggles, a former North Carolina transfer, is one of the more decorated kickers in Ohio State history. He has the No. 1 and No. 3 kick scoring seasons in school history, setting the single-season Ohio State record with a field goal percentage of 95 .2%. - Columbus Dispatch

Ohio State kicker Noah Ruggles has returned to the team after sitting out spring practice. "He needed a little time away," coach Ryan Day said Friday afternoon, "but he's back." After transferring from North Carolina last summer, Ruggles made an immediat e impact for the Buckeyes with his accuracy. He hit 20 of 21 field-goal attempts in 2021, including the game-winner in the Rose Bowl victory over Utah, a level of precision that made him one of three finalists for the Lou Groza Award as the nation's top kicker.Special teams coordinator Parker Fleming referred to Ruggles' absence from spring practice as "kind of a personal thing." "It wasn't a big deal," Fleming said. "It was nothing bad. It was just kind of a situation the head coach and I had, a nd that's the direction we went." Though an unusual situation, Ruggles' experience has kept Fleming at ease. Next fall will be his sixth season in college, and he wasn't with the Buckeyes last spring, either. Ruggles spent several months in the transfer portal before enrolling at Ohio State in June. "He's an older guy," Fleming said. "He's mature. He can take care of himself, and that's something he was doing the entire time he wasn't with us." - Columbus Dispatch
