Surprising but maybe he wasn’t ranked that high or no future spot in lineup at OSU
Angelo Ferrari puts on a clinic vs World Champ Joe Sealey, major decision 10-2 with over 2 minutes of riding time… WOW! #1
160, yeah Angelo, the youngest of the Ferrarri brothers… we were on his list, what’s our chances?? He’s going to be a stud
The question is, does that come with him? Cut from the same cloth? He looks like a talent. I'm guessing his brothers have worn their welcome in a few different circles. So, who is willing to take the chance and at what costs?
If he wants to wrestle here it’s a no brainer.. praying for a good visit
Don’t want him. Do some due diligence.
Respectfully, everything that has come out has been about the two other brothers. I haven't seen anything around the youngest.
Not fair to take his brothers issues and put them on him. He’s a different person.
I would gladly take him. Say what you want about the family and his brothers history, but one thing you have to agree on is their round the clock workhouse training. The Ferrari's are athletically gifted and tough as nails. I watched middle brother physically manhandle D1 athletes before his senior year. Angelo might be the best of the group. I would think if there are life lessons to be learned, his brothers have certainly given him some. I say give the kid a chance.
When the news of the brothers broke, my response to where they would land was "Yes, the best deal from the best wrestling school that is willing to lower its moral and ethical standards". I believe the family and their behaviors travel with the son. Definitely, the father. Not to worry, he'll find a better deal at another school more desperate and with more money.
Goody is the perfect person to coach the Ferrarri Brothers
Angelo will be visiting so let the banter begin.
That's a great idea. I'm glad we have this forum to discuss the pros and cons of situations such as this though.
I'll go out on a limb and say he's just taking his visits and enjoying the recruiting process. I'd be shocked if he didn't come here, as he's been with SKWC and training with Coach Pollard forever now, and his brother is here. He's coached by Ashnault at CBA and Rivera(s) at Elite. Oh, and Sebastiano Nini Builders sponsored a golf cart at the SKWC golf outing. I'd guess we'll be his last visit and secure that "official" commitment then

Great question with his last OV mid-July, but have we ever landed a commitment from someone that didn't take an OV?
...Agreed. I’m not too concerned but weirder things have happened especially when it involves the Ivies. It’s tough to pass up no matter how connected you are to RU.I'll go out on a limb and say he's just taking his visits and enjoying the recruiting process.

Nini was at SKWC practice yesterday. Visits were schedule before hiring Pollard. No worries.
I'm hearing its Rutgers or Michigan
With his freestyle aspirations I don't like Rutgers chances if this is the situation.
You have to wonder how much NIL money comes into play for this level of athlete. We know there can be bidding wars for the true elite of elite. For wrestlers who are among top in their respective weights but not necessarily at top of P4P rankings, I’m guessing we’re talking about a strong packages but not out of control money.
I know the coaching staff tried but we really haven't brought anyone of high caliber in (or anyone really) for him to workout with. Every hire has been in the lighter weights.
Someone at the golf outing said that the SKWC has more than $700,000 in the bank. If this is true, can we use this money to hire resident athletes? How can we learn how much money we have.
I still don’t know how an online team store doesn’t exist. Shouldn’t be too hard to make a bulk purchase order and store clothes in an office somewhere ready to ship as orders come in.
Don’t even need to store in an office. Most large scale screen printers have fulfillment centers and drop ship anything. All you need to do is create the designs and select a minimum run and they take care of the rest.
Jimmy Lawson was at practice yesterday.
That's dope. I know he's training MMA, maybe he's interested in working out w the big guys long term!
