Arizona safety DJ Warnell Jr. has committed to Indiana football out of the transfer portal, as he announced on social media Wednesday.
Warnell played for the Wildcats for two seasons after transferring from Pac-12 foe UCLA, where he spent two years. He’ll have one year of eligibility remaining at IU — his COVID year.
Last season, Warnell played in all 13 games for Arizona and finished with 15 combined tackles, including three sacks. He posted 26 combined tackles in 2022 with one tackle for loss and one pass breakup. Warnell recorded 11 total tackles with two pass breakups and one fumble forced in 16 games across his two seasons with the Bruins.
Warnell was a three-star recruit, per 247Sports Composite rankings, out of Dickinson (Texas) High School in the class of 2020.
Warnell joins an IU safety group that already includes Josh Sanguinetti, Tyrik McDaniel, Nic Toomer, Bryson Bonds, Terry Jones Jr., and Shawn Asbury II.
