WATCH: How to pronounce Clemson quarterback D.J. Uiagalelei's name |
National news was made on Thursday night when it was announced that Clemson quarterback
Trevor Lawrence tested positive for COVID-19 and would be out for Saturday's game with Boston College.
As Clemson says, next man up. Former 5-star quarterback D.J. Uiagalelei will likely get the start on Saturday against an upset-minded Eagles squad. Uiagalelei's father gave best wishes to Lawrence on a full recovery on social media. "First and foremost, our prayers going out to Trevor for a speedy recovery, he's the leader of the team, and he's been a great mentor to DJ. All I'm going to say is this. I have Faith that my son is ready to step in and help his team win." Also, he helped fans with the much-needed pronunciation (oo-ee-AHN-gah-leh-lay) of how to say their family's last name. If your wondering how to say DJ’s last name, I was teaching a class on how to say our last name at the Abernathy...?????? pic.twitter.com/srhJjn1iah ????
