Jalen Warley — a 6-foot-7 senior transfer guard from Virginia, has committed to Gonzaga. Warley will redshirt and compete for Mark Few next season.
“I enjoyed the family atmosphere and culture they have built there that allows them to be one of the premier programs in the country,” Warley told ZAGSBLOG. “I will bring a versatile skillset that can run a team and create for myself and others.”
Warley entered the transfer portal after Tony Bennett announced his retirement as the head coach of Virginia in October. This is the second time he’s entered the portal in his career.
The former top-35 prospect out of high school will join the Bulldogs after three years at Florida State. Warley has not played a minute this season for Virginia. Last year at Florida State, he averaged 7.5 points, 2.6 rebounds and 2.8 assists.
