Mark Ferrell brings size, stretch-the-field upside to UAB’s WR room
Ferrell profiles as a long, vertical receiving threat with a strong deep-ball fit: at Ventura JC, he led his conference with 510 receiving yards on 32 catches as a freshman, then added 186 yards and 2 TDs in a reduced role the next year; at 6'4", he gives UAB a bigger target who can win downfield and create mismatches. The catch: there’s limited publicly available 2026 production on him, so the intrigue is more about frame, contested-catch potential, and depth value than proven star power.
