He led the Beavers to an 8-4 campaign in 2023, going 180-for-315 (57.1%) for 2,638 yards and 21 touchdowns against seven interceptions. He also added 68 carries for 219 yards and six touchdowns on the ground...
"I want to start by thanking the Beavers' passionate and unbelievable fan base and how supportive you've all been with open arms. I am grateful for the opportunity to grow as a football player and a person with this program. My brothers, I am forever thankful for the relationships we've built since I've been here," Uiagalelei said.
"I want to thank Coach Smith for believing in me, Coach Lindgren, and Coach Boyer and the rest of the coaching staff for developing me into a better football player.
