Florida football recruiting: 2019 wideout Frank Ladson commits to Gators

It had been a relatively quiet stretch for the Florida Gators on the recruiting trail after their incredible close to the 2017 recruiting class. But on Saturday, Jim McElwain threw out his customary #ChompChomp tweet to signal a commitment — and, shortly afterward, the Gators had a new recruit in the fold.

That recruit is South Dade wide receiver Frank Ladson, per 247Sports, an unranked prospect in the 2019 recruiting class who is in attendance at a Florida junior day on campus this weekend.

Ladson is listed by 247Sports at 6’4” and 170 pounds, and that is very good size for a wideout, especially considering that Florida has had a host of smaller receivers in recent years.
