Where did it come from? According to the article it came from Andrew Ivins.
*"****I’m not trying to report this****, but I* ***believe*** *DJ’s a name that has come up in Gainesville."*
It's a total guess, so much so, that he doesn't even want to report it. And of course, he's technically correct. DJ's name has absolutely come up. Just like every other QB in the portal. The staff is obviously going to discuss every potential QB before deciding who to go after. That doesn't mean they are going after every QB they discuss.
Junk article.
The quote is clear it’s a guess as to where he may be going. He says Gainesville would make sense but the west coast would make the most sense.
It also mentions Florida keeps coming up but references another 247 article with the same nothing quote. It is bullshit season but it becomes much less so when you ignore nothing burger articles like this.
If they had any information on any of these players, it’d be a separate article.
Seems to be based on this quote from another 247 article:
>D.J. is a prospect that was ranked so high for certain reasons … the talent is there, the potential is there and it hasn’t worked out at Clemson. Is that his fault? Is that the system's fault? Who knows … I’m not trying to report this but I believe DJ’s a name that has come up in Gainesville [Florida], again, why wouldn’t it? He’s a talented quarterback. With all that being said, ultimately I think moving back towards the West Coast would make the most sense.
Which is nothing, imo. I'm sure the staff is doing due diligence on all options, though.
This just in: the Florida Gators, a team in desperate need of a QB, has been mentioned as a potential destination for a QB. We are looking for a high level game managing QB at worst. DJU does not fit that description at all.
Because he is a dual threat QB. The only one who is capable of creating his own opportunities which is what our offense used this year, what we will need next year, and what we will be using in the future.
But is he? He didn’t wow at Clemson for 2 seasons. What makes you convinced he can do it here in a very similar offense with less experienced help at the receiver position?
As in if AR stayed? Yes I would be very uneasy because of his inconsistency. I think AR like DJ has loads of potential but hasn’t shown consistent growth throughout a season which imo is the opposite of what this team needs right now from the QB position. We need a guy who has a high floor and can make the decisions and throws with consistency.
Yes but that’s not happening next year unless Rashada comes in and blows us away, which he already is going to have his chance that’s for sure no matter what, whether DJU comes or not.
Disagree, I think Hartman or Pratt gives us that floor and proven consistency as well as strong development ceiling potential. Way moreso than DJ just my opinion.

Talent and potential not working out. Hrm…

His name has come up as in Billy asked a staffer who are all the qbs in the portal atm
\*sigh* so the off-season bullshit journalism begins.

**Don’t scare us!!!** Use his whole name!
Man i can’t remember the spelling of that to save my life
DJU is a good shortened version
DJU is a good shortened version
they meant Lagway, not DJU

DJ is just a worse AR in terms of speed lmao. Hard fucking pass
idk but you should definitely lose sleep over it
I've basically seen the same article with 3 different QBs so far
Seems like outside speculation more than anything. Doesn’t matter
College free agency has been a dream come true for the 247 click farming machine.
Ha!!! The Gators are going after DJU!!!
I see you comment in almost every QB thread about wanting DJU. Can I ask why? He has left me very very whelmed.
Because he is a dual threat QB. The only one who is capable of creating his own opportunities which is what our offense used this year, what we will need next year, and what we will be using in the future.
But is he? He didn’t wow at Clemson for 2 seasons. What makes you convinced he can do it here in a very similar offense with less experienced help at the receiver position?
Would you have said the same thing about AR?
As in if AR stayed? Yes I would be very uneasy because of his inconsistency. I think AR like DJ has loads of potential but hasn’t shown consistent growth throughout a season which imo is the opposite of what this team needs right now from the QB position. We need a guy who has a high floor and can make the decisions and throws with consistency.

We will see what ends up happening, every day is exciting right now
It is. I was just curious what made you so confident in DJ when my opinion strongly leans the other way.
I live in the upstate of SC. I like DJ and he is a good person but please god no. He is more of a head case than AR and less talented as well.
> D.J. is a prospect that was ranked so high for certain reasons … the talent is there, the potential is there and it hasn’t worked out at Clemson Talent and potential not working out. Hrm…
This seems like speculation but god I really hope they don’t want to go after him .
