The nation's top-ranked JUCO quarterback D.J. Gillins announced his verbal to SMU Tuesday evening.

Gillins previous stop was Wisconsin, where he was a four-star recruit out of Ribault High in the Sunshine State.

I'm excited about my next step towards my future. Finally committed to SMU!!!!! #PonyUp Gonna be… https://t.co/BxnDjCcKlp — DJ Gillins (@BlessedWhereIAm) October 12, 2016

Gillins signed with the Badgers in the 2014 class after throwing for 2,371 yards and 22 touchdowns as a senior while adding another 775 yards and 13 scores. He suffered a knee injury early in his career at Wisconsin and when Paul Chryst came in to replace former head coach Gary Andersen who bolted for Oregon State, Gillins left after a change in offensive philosophy.

247Sports ranks Gillins as the No. 28 ranked JUCO player overall.
