Quarterback Austin Reed transfers from SIU to UWF
After spending the Fall 2018 and Spring 2019 season as a red-shirt freshman quarterback at Southern Illinois University in Carbondale, Austin Reed decided to declare to transfer away from SIU in April and enter the NCAA transfer portal. Austin was quickly recruited by several schools, including the University of West Florida. Thrilled to return to the State of Florida and play for one of the top division 2 teams in the country, Austin accepted the offer and will be playing as a UWF Argonaut in the Fall 2019.
The University of West Florida is a division 2 team located in Pensacola, FL. The team competes in the Gulf South Conference, arguably the best conference division 2 football. The UWF football team played for the D2 National Championship in 2017, as the school owns over 100 conference titles in all sports they compete in.
