Clemson is getting another generational talent at the quarterback position in DJ Uiagalelei, a five-star prospect who signed with the Tigers on Wednesday at the outset of the early signing period.
Head coach Dabo Swinney sees similarities in Uiagalelei to two of the best quarterbacks in school history, Trevor Lawrence and Deshaun Watson.
“He’s right at 6-4, 240-something pounds and looks lean,” Swinney said of Uiagalelei. “He’s everything that the great ones we’ve had, just bigger. He’s not 6-6 like Trevor, but none of those guys are 240 pounds. He can run like as well as anybody we’ve had.
