Texas quarterback commit Dia Bell announced on Instagram that he will not be playing the remainder of the 2025 season due to a minor procedure. The decision brings an early close to his high school career, but Bell’s words reflected gratitude, maturity, and excitement for his next chapter in Austin.

Bell described his last five years on the field as a dream come true, calling it an honor and privilege to play alongside his teammates. He referred to them as “brothers for life” and praised his coaches for believing in him even when the path wasn’t easy. “It wasn’t always easy, but it was always worth it. Thank you. I consider you all family too,” Bell wrote.

The quarterback admitted he was heartbroken to miss out on another chance at a state championship but expressed full confidence in his teammates to finish the job. He welcomed new leadership stepping in and urged them to lead the program toward another ring.

Though this chapter ended sooner than expected, Bell made it clear he’s eager to get to Texas. “As disappointing as the ending of this chapter is for me, I am even more excited about being 100% healthy and starting the next chapter in Austin! To my new family, my Longhorn family… see you all in January!”

For the Longhorns, Bell’s announcement is a reminder of why he’s such a valuable addition to the program. His leadership, poise, and resilience stand out as much as his physical talent, and his focus has already shifted to preparing for life on the Forty Acres.
