Clemson’s quarterback room grew by one on Sunday when five-star quarterback DJ Uiagalelei reported to campus with the other midyear enrollees in the Tigers’ 2020 signing class.
Uiagalelei is expected to jump right in and play the role of LSU’s Joe Burrow as Clemson’s scout team quarterback ahead of the Jan. 13 national championship game in New Orleans.
“It’s going to be cool. It’s going to be awesome,” Clemson quarterback Trevor Lawrence said of Uiagalelei mimicking Burrow. “Obviously he’s a great player, and really excited for him to be here. I haven’t even seen him since he got here yet.
