#61
Another day, another lineman. The Hoosier Huddle countdown continues and as is the theme through the first half of the countdown, we hit on another offensive lineman. The next player we break down is Nick Ramacca.
Nick Ramacca (Redshirt Sophomore)
- Height: 6'2"
- Weight: 283 pounds
- Hometown: Bohemia, NY
- Position: Offensive Line
Nick Ramacca, a former walk-on, steps into this year as a player who may not be on many people’s radar. However, with a new offensive scheme in the works there are spots to be won and a clean slate to start out on.
Ramacca redshirted his first year on campus and despite limited playing time, proved productive when called upon in 2016. Ramacca’s only appearance of the season came at Rutgers, in addition to being named the scout team player of the week leading up to the Wake Forest matchup.
A three-year letterwinner at Connetquot High School, this could be Ramacca’s best opportunity to break through for extensive snaps with a chance to impress a new coaching staff throughout the summer, especially with uncertainty at the center position. He has 61 days until the opener to prove his worth and work his way up the depth chart.
Check back with the countdown tomorrow and every day through the offseason as we inch closer to opening day against Ohio State!
