Ricky Guss, highly decorated 2018 WPIAL player headed to RMU

[GoRMU]

Ricky Guss who led Quaker Valley to a State Championship is headed to RMU. Guss had signed with Youngstown State and apparently spent part of the summer at YSU. He has decided to come back closer to home. He may redshirt this year. Great athlete, I do not know his 40 yard dash time, bench press or other stats, I do know that he can help a team win.

He's not a college quarterback, even though his stats are impressive. He's a good athlete though. He was going to play linebacker at YSU and would be a good athlete there for RMU.

I could also see him in the backfield as a bigger running back or h-back.
