Five-star Texas WR commit Jaime Ffrench taking Florida official visit this weekend
Five-star Texas WR Jaime Ffrench is taking an official visit to the University of Florida this weekend.
Ffrench, a 6'5", 195-pound wide receiver from John Paul II High School in Plano, Texas, is considered one of the top wide receiver prospects in the country. He is ranked as a five-star recruit by 247Sports and Rivals and is the No. 1 wide receiver in the state of Texas.
Ffrench has been committed to the University of Texas since June 2022, but he has been taking visits to other schools in recent weeks. He visited the University of Alabama last weekend and is scheduled to visit the University of Georgia next weekend.
Ffrench's visit to Florida is a significant development in his recruitment.
The Gators have been one of Ffrench's top schools since the beginning of his recruitment, and they have been making a strong push to flip him from Texas. Florida head coach Billy Napier and wide receivers coach Keary Colbert have been in regular contact with Ffrench, and they have made it clear that he is a priority for their program.
Ffrench's visit to Florida will give him a chance to see the school up close and to meet with the coaches and players. It will also give the Gators a chance to make their case for why Ffrench should choose Florida over Texas.
It is unclear if Ffrench will make a decision on his commitment this weekend, but his visit to Florida is a sign that he is considering his options.
If Ffrench does flip from Texas to Florida, it would be a major blow to the Longhorns' recruiting class. Texas is currently ranked No. 1 in the 247Sports team recruiting rankings, but Ffrench is one of the most important pieces of their class. His commitment to Florida would also be a big win for the Gators, who are looking to build on their success from last season.
