Overview
- Lagway completed 63.2% of his passes for 2,264 yards with 16 touchdowns and an SEC-high 14 interceptions in 2025 as Florida finished 4-8.
- A core‑muscle surgery, a sore throwing arm and a calf strain sidelined him for much of the offseason and curtailed his rushing threat.
- The move comes after Billy Napier’s firing and Jon Sumrall’s hire, with multiple reports describing an unproductive initial meeting between Lagway and the new staff.
- With two years of eligibility, he is projected as one of the top portal quarterbacks, and reports list LSU, Baylor, Miami, Clemson and TCU as early possibilities once the Jan. 2–16 window opens.
- Florida now faces a vacancy at quarterback and greater NIL flexibility, with Tramell Jones Jr. among the notable in-house options.
