TROY, Ala. – Troy bolstered its receiving corps Thursday with the addition of three-star receiver Mark Ferrell, head coach Jon Sumrall announced. Ferrell joins the Trojans after earning all-conference honors as a freshman at Ventura College in 2019.
Rated as one of the top-30 junior college receivers in the 2020 class by 247 Sports, Ferrell elected to return to Ventura College for his sophomore season in 2021 after COVID-19 canceled the 2020 campaign. Ferrell caught 14 passes for 186 yards and a pair of scores as a sophomore after the 6-foot-4, 200-pound outside receiver caught 32 passes for 510 yards and four touchdowns as a freshman.
