BREAKING: Five-Star QB DJ Uiagalelei Decommits From FSU, Flips to Texas Longhorns
In a stunning development, five-star quarterback DJ Uiagalelei has decommitted from Florida State University and announced his commitment to the Texas Longhorns.
The news comes as a significant coup for Texas and a major loss for the Seminoles, who had positioned Uiagalelei as the centerpiece of their future.
Uiagalelei, widely regarded as one of the top quarterbacks in the nation, took to social media to share his decision, stating, “After much prayer and reflection, I have decided to decommit from Florida State and commit to the University of Texas. I believe Texas provides the best opportunity for me to grow on and off the field.”
The flip follows a recent visit to Austin, where Uiagalelei reportedly connected deeply with head coach Steve Sarkisian and his vision for the program. Known for his ability to develop elite quarterbacks, Sarkisian played a key role in Uiagalelei’s decision.
At 6’4” and 250 pounds, Uiagalelei brings a rare combination of size, arm strength, and athleticism to the Longhorns. His commitment elevates Texas’ 2025 recruiting class and bolsters their aspirations to return to national prominence.
For Florida State, the loss of Uiagalelei is a tough setback, leaving the Seminoles scrambling to fill the void at quarterback.
