Oh, I believe he is going to prison.
I don't know much about Ruggs but he was just 22 years old and had signed a contract close to $200 million. It boggles my mind that a football player could command that much money in his first year of pro football.
Too much too soon in my opinion. The kid wasn't prepared to handle that kind of money as evidenced by his tricked out car with bells and whistles that only an immature high school kid would bother with - I mean, "kandy" painted brakes! Who thinks up that stuff except some overgrown kid? And a car that goes 200 m.p.h. on city streets - that's just irresponsible at any age.
Ruggs is going to end up having his name mentioned in NFL rookie camps for the next 20 years at least - as in, "Smarten up kid, you don't want to end up like another Ruggs."
