Florida near the top for this class of 2025 wide receiver

Florida’s early efforts with 2025 wide receiver Jayvan Boggs are paying off, and he’s planning a return visit later this month.

The Florida Gators offered Cocoa High (Florida) wide receiver [autotag]Jayvan Boggs[/autotag] back in June and is one of three teams standing out for the class of 2025 pass catcher a month later, according to Gators Online.

“There’s really no favorite right now but Penn State, Ohio State and Florida lead the way for me,” Boggs said. “It’s very close between them three schools.”

Florida has kept in contact with Boggs since offering, with assistant coaches checking in at least weekly. He’s planning to return at the end of the month for the Gators’ Grill in the Ville cookout.

Despite the Division I interest Boggs has garnered, he doesn’t have a grade on any of the four major recruiting services. He’s only a rising junior, though, which means he has at least 17 more months until he can sign a letter of intent.

Plenty could change over those 17 months, including his top three and star ratings.

In-state 2025 wide receiver has Florida among top 2 schools, sets return visit

Gators make the final two for this in-state wide receiver target who plans a return visit this month.

The primary focus last month for Florida’s football recruiting efforts was on hosting members of the 2024 class making their official visits to Gainesville before the July quiet period kicked in. However, Billy Napier and Co. also put some time into cultivating the next class at their Friday Night Lights event to wrap up the month.

Among those in attendance was unranked 2025 wide receiver [autotag]Jayvan Boggs[/autotag] out of Cocoa (Florida) who made his first trip to the university’s campus after making contact with the staff prior. The 6-foot-1-inch, 175-pound pass-catcher made the most of his first face-to-face meeting with the Orange and Blue, earning an offer for his efforts while also getting a deeper look at what the Swamp has in store for him.

“It was good,” Boggs told Swamp247 in regards to the visit. “Getting to compete and have some fun on the campus. Getting to learn from their good coaching they had for me. I didn’t get to see all of the facilities and stuff like that, because it was more of a camp than a visit. I got to hang out with them though, and loved talking with Coach (Billy) Napier and Coach (Billy) Gonzales, and Coach (Joe) Hamilton and the others on the staff. It was nice.”

As a result, the rising high school junior has Florida among his top two preferred schools midway through the summer months.

“I could say they are in my top two right now,” he also told Swamp247. “No lie, they are top two right now. I would say it’s Florida and Ohio State right now. They both are building wideouts historically. Ohio State has made a lot of great receivers, and Florida has done it in the past. Florida… and Ohio State is up there too. Florida is in the best conference in college football and they have been developing.”

The in-state wideout plans to make his second visit later this month for the program’s Grill in the Ville recruiting event on July 29, which will give him even more time with the staff as he continues to assess his suitors.

Boggs is currently unranked according to the 247Sports composite and the On3 industry ranking. On3’s Recruiting Prediction Machine has Florida holding a narrow edge over Ohio State for his commitment, 43.8% vs. 38.3%, respectively.

Ohio State left a positive impression on 2025 wide receiver

The wide receiver pipeline isn’t slowing down anytime soon #GoBucks

There is an extremely valid argument for [autotag]Ohio State[/autotag] being named Wide Receiver U.

Multiple first round NFL selections with big time production at the next level, and more on the way (see Marvin Harrison Jr. and Emeka Egbuka). Just that alone will get recruits attention, and even more, when they call Ohio State their dream school.

That’s exactly what’s happening with Florida’s [autotag]Jayvan Boggs[/autotag]. The 6-foot, 1-inch, 175 pound receiver was offered by the Buckeyes earlier this month, and according to the Silver Bulletin, Boggs was impressed with a multitude of factors that Ohio State has to offer at the next level.

Boggs has yet to be ranked but expect that to change once the 2025 class has a rankings update. The connection that he has made early with the Buckeyes could pay dividends down the road.
