Florida Gators sophomore quarterback DJ Lagway joined head coach Billy Napier and teammates Caleb Banks and Jake Slaughter at the 2025 SEC Media Days in Atlanta, Georgia. It’s rare to see a sophomore quarterback take the stand at SEC Media Days, it’s even rarer to see one handle it with as much poise and confidence as Lagway did.
The Willis, Texas native found significant playing time throughout his freshman campaign at UF, tossing for 1,915 yards, 12 touchdowns, and nine interceptions. Most importantly, Lagway went 6-1 as a starter and 6-0 in games he started and finished, turning around Florida’s 2024 season after a dreadful 4-5 start.
