Ruffin, who entered the transfer portal earlier this week, averaged 12.6 points and 3.4 points per game as a freshman before a knee injury limited him to just 14 games.
Ruffin was a local Jackson high school star playing at Callaway, where he was the No. 52 overall prospect in the Class of 2021, making him the second-highest-rated signee in Ole Miss basketball history.
