Ryan Houston: Battering Ram Lite Posted Aug 11, 2010 Ryan Houston stepped foot on UNC’s campus in the summer of ’07 carrying a hefty 273 pounds on his 6-foot-2 frame. Houston sat out spring ball last March and April due to academics, but returned to training camp last week with even less weight on his frame – down to 235 pounds. “I wasn’t even planning to lose weight,” Houston said.
