Breaking: Rutgers football flips a bigtime prospect, lands Canadian edge Farell Gnago

Farell Gnago commits to Rutgers football on Monday.

Following a weekend official visit, Farell Gnago has committed to Rutgers football. The Canadian edge rusher has the size, strength and production to play at the Big Ten level.

A 6-foot-4, 245-pound edge rusher, Gnago is coming off his final season at Collège André-Grasset (Quebec, PQ).

Gnago, who had been committed to Kent State, was offered last Monday by Michigan State.

Over the weekend, Gnago was on an official visit at Rutgers along with two committed offensive linemen, Kenny Jones and Carter Kadow. Also visiting this past weekend were several other committed players such as quarterback A.J. Surace and running back Gabe Winowich.

Those players were not on an official visit but still wanted to be on-campus and watch practice.

 

Gnago will enroll at Rutgers in June.

Canada has become an important part of the Rutgers recruiting map.

Last season, Rutgers landed another defensive lineman Djibril Abdou Rahman, a three-star who had offers from Buffalo and Kent State.
