Ruiz opted for Bama over offers from Arizona, Arizona State and Tennessee among others.

"It feels awesome," Ruiz told BamaOnLine. "Alabama is everyone's dream."

The Arizona native broke down how he received the offer, and when he decided to ultimately commit.

"I went to their camp last Saturday and I was one of the top four finalists there," Ruiz said. "And Coach Saban is really strict about offers and stuff, so he went back and looked at some film of all of us. Then yesterday I got a text saying to call him, and he offered me and I committed right there on the spot."

Ruiz talked about why he ultimately chose the Tide over his other offers.

"Four years ago when I started kicking I probably would have laughed if someone said I was going to Alabama," Ruiz said. "Alabama has always been a dream for me. It's a place that'll push me to be the best that I can be."

The 5-foot-10, 165-pound kicker has no interest in looking elsewhere going forward.

"I'm going to shut it down," Ruiz said. "I'm all Alabama."

Last season, Ruiz went 12 for 16 on field goals, including a game-winner long of 51 yards. He was also 55 for 59 on touchbacks.
