Overview
- Lagway finalized his move to Baylor over a week after a Jan. 8 commitment, signing on Jan. 18 according to multiple reports.
- He continued exploring options before signing, visiting Ole Miss and drawing mention in Duke discussions as portal movement unfolded.
- At Florida in 2025, Lagway passed for 2,264 yards with 16 touchdowns and 14 interceptions after taking over the starting role as a freshman in 2024.
- Redshirt freshman receiver DeBraun Hampton, Lagway’s Willis High School teammate, entered the portal this week and committed to Baylor, with his scholarship status there unconfirmed.
- Baylor retained coach Dave Aranda after a 5-7 season, and Lagway is widely viewed as the likely 2026 starter in a system seen as a better fit for his skill set.
