Florida hosted New Haven (Ind.) High wide receiver Mylan Graham, a class of 2024 commitment to Ohio State, on an unofficial visit Monday, he shared via Instagram.

The trip to Gainesville marked Graham's first as a recruit after earning an offer from the Gators' coaching staff on March 28. 

Although he has been committed to the Buckeyes since April 4, Graham's pledge hasn't prevented him from checking out what other programs have to offer. Graham also unofficially visited Miami on May 13, according to On3 Sports.

Graham, 6-foot-1, 170 pounds, is considered the No. 4 wide receiver and No. 19 overall prospect in the class of 2024 according to the 247Sports composite rankings. He's hauled in 73 receptions for 1,496 yards and 15 touchdowns in 17 varsity games dating back to his freshman season at New Haven. 

Graham is not the only Ohio State pass-catching pledge Florida has taken an interest in recently. Consensus No. 1 receiver Jeremiah Smith, of Opa Locka (Fla.) Chaminade-Madonna Prep, visited the Gators unofficially on March 23 and will officially visit UF from June 2-4. 

Florida currently possesses one wide receiver commitment in the class of 2024, from Tampa (Fla.) Carrollwood Day's Izaiah Williams

With just eight scholarship receivers on its roster, including anticipated summertime enrollee and class of 2023 prospect Eugene Wilson III, the Gators aim to stack talent at the position in the coming months to pair with prized quarterback commit and 2024 Willis (Texas) High product DJ Lagway in UF's future offense.
