In a shocking recruiting shakeup that has sent ripples across college football, five-star quarterback DJ Lagway has officially decommitted from the Florida Gators and announced his flip to the Tennessee Volunteers. The highly touted prospect, widely regarded as one of the top-5 players in the 2025 recruiting class, had long been considered the crown jewel of Floridaโs future under Billy Napier. His sudden decision marks a dramatic twist, especially with powerhouse programs Georgia and Alabama also heavily pursuing him until the very end.
Lagwayโs recruitment has been one of the most closely watched sagas in recent memory. Initially pledging to the Gators, he was seen as a potential program-changing figure who could restore Floridaโs dominance in the SEC. However, with the Gators struggling on the field and Napierโs future uncertain following mounting criticism, Lagway reassessed his options. Both Georgia and Alabama made late pushes, promising championship-caliber rosters and immediate contention, but Tennessee ultimately won him over with their dynamic offense and vision under Josh Heupel.
For the Vols, this is nothing short of a blockbuster victory. Landing Lagway sends a clear message that Tennessee is serious about challenging the traditional SEC elite. His blend of size, arm talent, mobility, and leadership is tailor-made for Heupelโs high-powered attack, and Vol Nation is already buzzing with anticipation of what he could bring to Neyland Stadium.
Meanwhile, Florida faces a crushing blow. Losing a cornerstone recruit of Lagwayโs caliber not only raises questions about the trajectory of the program but also leaves the Gators scrambling for answers in an increasingly competitive recruiting landscape. With Georgia and Alabama looming as constant threats, and Tennessee rising fast, the SEC recruiting wars have just reached a new level of intensity.
