In a blockbuster announcement, star quarterback DJ Uiagalelei has flipped his commitment from the Florida State Seminoles to the Texas Longhorns. The former 5-star prospect, who had also been courted by Tennessee, Michigan, and other top programs, is heading to Austin, shaking up the college football recruiting landscape.
Uiagalelei, known for his elite arm talent, physicality, and leadership, played a pivotal role in Florida State’s recent success. However, he expressed excitement about the opportunity to join the Longhorns and their offensive-minded head coach, who has made Austin a hotbed for quarterback development.
“Texas is a special place with a passionate fanbase and a winning culture,” Uiagalelei said. “The coaching staff’s vision for my future and their ability to compete for championships made this an easy decision for me. I’m ready to bring my all to the Longhorns.”
For Texas, landing Uiagalelei is a massive victory as they continue building a powerhouse in preparation for their move to the SEC. His addition solidifies their quarterback depth and boosts their chances of competing for conference and national titles in the coming years.
