The Oregon State Beavers have their starting quarterback as former Clemson signal-caller DJ Uiagalelei has been tabbed as the starter per a source.
The 6-foot-4, 252-pound junior beat out the incumbent Ben Gulbranson, who went 7-1 as a starter a season ago, and four-star true freshman Aidan Chiles to win the job.
