Former Clemson WR Frank Ladson commits to ACC school

CLEMSON — Frank Ladson originally left his hometown of Miami to go to Clemson. Now the former Tigers receiver is leaving Clemson and returning home to Miami.

Ladson committed to Miami on Saturday after entering the transfer portal last month.

The junior missed most of the 2021 season with an injury, appearing in five games and recording 4 catches for 19 yards.

Ladson started four games this past season and eight during his time with the Tigers.

He finished his Clemson career with 31 catches for 430 yards.

Ladson was rated as a four-star recruit and one of the best receivers in the country coming out of high school, but drops and injuries kept him from reaching his potential.

He certainly has the speed to be an elite playmaker, and the Hurricanes hope they will get that version of Ladson at Miami.
