Florida in the race for 5-star wide receiver, official visit likely

Florida is still one of several teams in the picture for five-star wide receiver Jaime Ffrench out of Mandarin High in Jacksonville.

Florida has yet to set up an official visit with five-star wide receiver [autotag]Jaime Ffrench[/autotag], but the Mandarin High (Jacksonville) recruit says it is too early to count the Gators out.

According to Gators Online, Ffrench has official visits set for LSU on June 1, Miami on June 7, Tennessee on June 13 and Texas on June 21. If Florida does get him on campus for an official, it is likely to come after the summer ends.

“I haven’t set it yet, but I know they have something for the fall,” Ffrench said. “I would look for the fall.”

Like most receivers considering Florida, Ffrench likes the idea of sharing the field with Eugene Wilson III and catching passes from DJ Lagway. Seeing Ricky Pearsall come off the board in the first round of the NFL draft is keeping Florida’s name in his head, too.

Recruiting Summary

Ffrench is ranked No. 18 overall and No. 3 at his position nationally according to the 247Sports composite while the On3 industry ranking has him at Nos. 23 and 5, respectively.

Ohio State holds three crystal ball predictions from 247Sports while On3’s Recruiting Prediction Machine gives OSU a 61.1% chance of signing him. The Alabama Crimson Tide (23.8%) and Florida State Seminoles (9.2%) trail well behind.

Ohio State predicted to land coveted 2025 wide receiver

Could it be soon? #GoBucks

Nick Sagan’s retirement set off a big domino effect across college football. Ohio State was among those to take advantage of many of the Crimson Tide’s top players and recruits looking elsewhere.

The Buckeyes were able to bring in two of Alabama’s best players between center Seth McLaughlin and safety Caleb Downs. They also landed Julian Sayin, the top ranked quarterback in the 2024 class late in the recruiting cycle after Saban’s retirement announcement.

Ohio State has been heavily pursuing another highly-coveted recruit that decommitted from Alabama after the news. That player is wide receiver Jaime Ffrench, who is ranked as top 50 player on all four major recruiting resources and is the 25th ranked player in the 2025 class on the On 3 Industry rankings.

It appears that the Buckeyes are in a good spot in the recruitment of Ffrench as on Monday On3’s Matt Parker predicted the Buckeyes to land the coveted wide receiver.

Ohio State has recruited wide receivers better than any other program in recent memory and Ffrench would be a massive addition to their 2025 class.

Ohio State will host one of the nations elite wide receivers this spring

The Buckeyes could be getting another elite Florida receiver

Ohio State football does not have a lack of talent at the wide receiver position, and that likely won’t change in the immediate future.

Already in the 2025 class the Buckeyes have a commitment from Jayvan Boggs, and more elite prospects will join him. One of those potential players is Florida’s [autotag]Jaime Ffrench[/autotag], a 6-foot, 1-inch and 185-pound star.

Ffrench has set up a few spring visits, with Columbus being one of them. He will head up North at the end of March, his only visit above the Mason-Dixon Line. The receiver is one of the best players in the country, ranking as the No. 3 player at his position and 12th overall according to the 247Sports Composite Rankings.

Previously an Alabama commit, Ffrench reopened the process when Nick Saban announced his retirement. It would be hard to rule out Ohio State, especially considering how well they have recruited his position over the last few years.

List of top Alabama recruits who have decommitted since Nick Saban retired

After Alabama coach Nick Saban announced his retirement, football recruits began decommitmenting from the Crimson Tide. See the list here.

Longtime Alabama head coach Nick Saban’s retirement sent a shock wave around college football as the sport lost not only a legend but one of the greatest coaches of all time. A key part of game planning, program strategy, and recruitment, Saban touched all elements of arguably the top program of modern college football.

With his exit, many top high school football recruits who chose Alabama are now reconsidering their decision. Five-star prospects including Ryan Williams, Jaime Ffrench and Zion Grady are among those who have announced intentions to re-evaluate the college football market and have conversations with other teams they previously passed on in favor of Alabama and Saban.

Take a look at the list of former Alabama commits back on the market. All rankings are according to the 247Sports Composite:

Elite 2025 target decommits from Alabama, highly considering Ohio State

A massive target is back on the market for the Buckeyes

Ohio State football has had no issues recruiting high-level wide receivers, and one of the best 2025 prospects is back on the market.

Florida’s [autotag]Jaime Ffrench[/autotag] committed to Alabama in July, but with Nick Saban retiring, he decided to continue to explore his options and decommitted from the program. The 6-foot, 1-inch and 185-pound receiver camped at Ohio State a month before he initially committed, and the relationship continued even though he made his verbal.

In an update by 247Sports; Tom Loy (subscription required), Ffrench explained his current status and spoke highly of Ohio State. He is closely monitoring the program through recently signed Jeremiah Smith, and told Loy “that’s important about my recruitment.”

Ffrench continued to say that his recruitment will most likely go through December as he wanted “to retake it all in and take a step back.” There are numerous other schools he’s currently considering, but the lure of joining Smith in Columbus certain has him intrigued.

He is ranked as the No. 3 wide receiver and 11th overall prospect in the country according to the 247Sports Composite Rankings.

2025 5-Star WR Jaime Ffrench has decommitted from Alabama, and the Aggies are in play

2025 5-star wide receiver Jamie Ffrench has officially decommitted from Alabama, meaning Texas A&M is in play for his talents.

Looking for more recruiting news regarding Texas A&M’s 2025 cycle? We have you covered, as it’s been confirmed that five-star wide receiver Jaime Ffrech has officially decommitted from Alabama, and after it was reported that Ffrench is “strongly considering” the Aggies late last week, head coach Mike Elko and new wide receivers coach Holmon Wiggins are now in play.

Wiggins, who served under former Alabama head coach Nick Saban from 2019-2023 in various roles, was Ffrench’s main recruiter with Crimson Tide and maintains a relationship with him to this day.

According to 247Sports composite, Ffrench is currently positioned as the 11th-ranked player in the class, the 3rd-ranked wide receiver, and the 2nd-ranked player in Florida, as the Jacksonville (FL) native recorded 1,247 receiving yards and 14 total touchdowns during his 2023 junior season at Mandarin High School.

Without a single signee in the 2025 cycle, signing a player of Ffrench’s caliber would provide a significant momentum boost heading into the summer and give Elko his first commit outside of the transfer portal ahead of his inaugural 2024 season next fall.

2025 5-Star WR and Alabama commit ‘strongly considering’ visiting Texas A&M

According to Rivals’ Adam Gorney, 2025 5-star WR and Alabama commit Jaime Ffrench is still considering a visit to Texas A&M.

Over the next six months, Texas A&M’s 2025 recruiting class will begin to take shape. New head coach Mike Elko has assembled an impressive staff with a highly successful recruiting background, including former Alabama wide receivers coach Holmon Wiggins.

This week, Rivals’ Adam Gorney revealed that 2025 five-star wide receiver and Alabama commit Jaime Ffrench is reportedly still considering a visit to Texas A&M, as Wiggins, who recently accepted the Aggies offer on Jan. 2, recruited Ffrench to the Crimson Tide.

According to Rivals, Ffrench is currently positioned as the 18th-ranked player in the class, the 3rd-ranked wide receiver, and the 4th-ranked player in Florida, as the Jacksonville (FL) native recorded 1,247 receiving yards and 14 total touchdowns during his 2023 junior season at Mandarin High School.

Without a single signee in the 2025 cycle, potentially flipping a player of Ffrench’s caliber would provide a significant momentum boost heading into the summer and give Elko his first commit outside of the transfer portal ahead of his inaugural 2024 season next fall.
