The father of a top college football quarterback had no time for fan criticism of his son on social media.
DJ Uiagalelei is set to begin his first season with the Florida State Seminoles following three years at Clemson State plus one year at Oregon State. One of the top players in college football will take over the offense from Jordan Travis, who was drafted in the fifth round (171st overall) by the New York Jets.
DJ’s father, “Big Dave” Uiagalelei had a problem with a fan disrespecting his son in an X/Twitter space. The elder Uiagalelei went off on the fan and even threatened to beat him up in the heated exchange.
