The No. 1-ranked pound for pound wrestler in the 2020 recruiting class has committed to Oklahoma State.
AJ Ferrari out of Allen, Texas is ranked No. 1 overall by FloWrestling, Intermat, and pretty much every other wrestling ranking outlet available. The Cadet World Bronze medalist and folkstyle National Champ projects as a college 197 or could potentially bulk up to heavyweight. He is expected to compete at 220 for his upcoming senior season. He picked OSU over Penn State, Ohio State, Nebraska and Rutgers.
Ferrari has had a close relationship with John Smith over the years and credits him as a person he idolizes, not only in wrestling, but in life.
