The following quote from the Syracuse.com article about Spruill stood out for some reason:
ESPN draft analyst Todd McShay said he's a "run-and-chase linebacker who will continue to get bigger and stronger."

Marquis Spruill was listed as 6' 1"/220 lbs. as a freshman (http://rivals.yahoo.com/syracuse/football/recruiting/player-Marquis-Spruill-103097)
Marquis Spruill is currently listed as 6' 1"/224 lbs. (http://www.suathletics.com/roster.aspx?path=football)

How is it possible that he didn't add more weight in four years?

On the SU Athletics roster from his freshman year I think he was listed at 6'3"...unfortunately, he shrunk over the following summer.

I guess he led with his helmet too much.
