DJ Lagway, a former top-10 recruit, has decided to leave Florida and join Baylor. This move comes as no surprise, given his family ties to the school. His father, Derek Lagway, played running back for Baylor, and DJ grew up just two hours away in Willis, Texas.
Lagway's time at Florida was a mix of highs and lows. As a freshman, he showed great promise, leading the Gators to four straight wins at the end of the season. However, injuries and inconsistency plagued his sophomore year, leading to a disappointing season. Despite this, he still managed to throw 16 touchdown passes.
Baylor, on the other hand, is looking to rebuild after a 5-7 season. They are in need of a new quarterback, and Lagway could be the answer. His experience and potential make him an intriguing option for the Bears.
The move to Baylor also brings Lagway closer to home. He visited the school this week and was met with cheers from the crowd at a basketball game. This support could be a good sign for his future at Baylor.
Only time will tell if this move will be successful. But for now, it's a new chapter for Lagway and Baylor.
