Frank Ladson Jr. gives UMass a big-bodied mismatch with real big-play upside
In the 2024 season, Frank Ladson Jr. was a low-volume but high-upside add for UMass, appearing in two games after arriving from Miami, where he posted 27 catches for 298 yards and a touchdown in two seasons. He brings NFL-caliber size at 6-foot-3, strong contested-catch ability, and proven pedigree as a former four-star recruit who flashed at Clemson and Miami. The catch: durability and availability have been the question, so he fits best if a team wants a vertical, physical receiver who can win above the rim and stretch coverage.
