Rutgers CB Ruhann Peele learned value of good decisions, good surroundings during suspension

PISCATAWAY – If Ruhann Peele sounds a little more enthusiastic about playing defense now than he did the first time around, perhaps it is because he is grateful just to have a second chance with Rutgers football.

Peele missed all of last season due to a combination of injury and team-issued suspension. Shortly after being sidelined during the first week of training camp, Peele was arrested on a simple assualt charge.

Speaking to the media for the first time since the spring of 2014, Peele was asked what he learned from the incident.
