Texas transfer wide receiver Jaime Ffrench, Jr. has committed to Michigan.
Ffrench is a 6'1", 185 lb. receiver who played in four games this past season, making 1 catch for 6 yards against Sam Houston State in a 55-0 blowout. He retains his redshirt and has four years of eligibility left.
Ffrench was a 4-star, the #9 wide receiver, and #44 overall in the class of 2025 when he was coming out of Jacksonville (FL) Mandarin. His transfer portal ranking is a 3-star and the #66 wide receiver, but how do you rank transfer players who basically haven't played at all in college?
Texas had some quality receivers this past season in Ryan Wingo, DeAndre Moore, and Parker Livingstone, so it makes sense why Ffrench wouldn't have played much. It is at least slightly concerning that he didn't have more of an impact, but outside of the Sam Houston State game, Texas didn't really have a lot of blowout, garbage-time opportunities in 2025.
Going back to Ffrench's senior film from the 2024 season, he shows some excellent change-of-direction skills. He has decent size at 6'1" and has adequate but not great long speed. If we're going by talent, Ffrench should be the #2 receiver at Michigan in 2026 behind Andrew Marsh. He probably won't create a ton of big plays with his speed, but I like his catch-and-run ability to be able to tack on an extra 10-15 yards after the catch using his shiftiness in open space.
