Ladson announced his commitment via Twitter:
The 6-4, 170-pound receiver from Miami is the Tigers’ seventh commitment of the 2019 class, and their first five-star prospect. He wasn’t the only recruit from the 2019 class to commit, either: Four-star dual-threat quarterback Taisun Phommachanh, the No. 1 player in the state of Connecticut, announced his commitment to Clemson on Saturday as well.
The Tigers’ 2019 class now ranks 13th nationally and third in the ACC, a year after their 2018 class — ranked seventh nationally and best among ACC schools, respectively — pulled in five five-star recruits and the top player from five different states.
