BREAKING: Georgia Four-Star QB Carson Beck Flips to Florida State. Welcome to the Seminoles!..

DJ Uiagalelei spent three seasons at Clemson, a season at Oregon State and rounded out his collegiate career with the Seminoles this year.

Uiagalelei threw for 9,384 passing yards, 61 touchdowns and 30 interceptions over the course of his career and picked up another 1,124 yards and 21 touchdowns on the ground.

He had the best season of his career in 2023 with the Beavers, throwing for 2,638 passing yards and seven touchdowns while rushing for 219 yards and six touchdowns. A coaching change led him to transfer and he landed with Florida State.

There were high expectations for the Seminoles after posting a big 2023 season and landing a talented quarterback out of the transfer portal, but things did not go as planned in Tallahassee.

Uiagalelei played just five games before injuries derailed his season. In his five appearances, he threw for 1,065 yards, four touchdowns and six interceptions, leading the Seminoles to just one win. Florida State ended the year 2-10 after going 13-1 in 2023.

Though Uiagalelei hopes the next stop in his career is the NFL, he also has another sport to fall back on.

The Los Angeles Dodgers selected Uiagalelei in the 20th round of the MLB draft in 2023, citing his high school baseball experience as their reasoning.

“Honestly, he could have been a top-couple-round guy if he stuck with baseball,” Dodgers area scouting supervisor Jonah Rosenthal.
