Hoping he'll answer....

This is a random guess. Think he would be potentially transferring to play for Clausen at Bishop Alemany?

Gotta wonder if Riley has an impact on this guy now. I know it's been said that he wants to head south, but LR may change the narrative back in Cali

He has his QB for the '23 class.

Hes already got a QB for '23. Nelson I think.

Lol is this gonna be like Henry to’oto’o all over again with, I think it was, Kevin Simon?

 

[vols 30]

I might as well get used to it. I'm gonna be seeing it for a while.

Obvious, but this is a program changer, right here.

Here's a September article about Lamaleava in the local paper. Sounds special enough for an all out effort similar to Stu Aberdeen's pursuit of Bernard King ( Downey Embassy Suites < than a mile away) More seriously, I imagine Lincoln Riley will be on this kid like a fly on chit. It's only 16 miles from Downey Warren HS to the USC campus. But then again, a lot of LA quarterbacks have recently gone east.

Riley already has his QB for that class. Iamaleava wants to play is SEC

What do you think the over/under is on the number of times that will need to be said before signing day '23?

Getting this kid because of his actual talent would be great, but I think the greater impact is that it would send a message to the rest of the country that once again UT is recruiting nationally, and at a high level. We have to get that swagger back…

Getting a 5* QB in the boat early isn't just huge for the obvious reasons. It's also huge for perception of other top recruits.

 

[SpaceCoastVol]

Go Voles? Well, there's time to work on that if he commits.

Perception is one of the obvious reasons

Not for everyone

INFINITY?

 

[COOKEVOL]

Hope we’re recruiting him for ILB.

 

[BondJamesBond]

INFINITY?

I'll take the under.

I feel like if we get Nico in April/May and Carnell Tate is still undecided, that would really help us there

 

[buckfama]

Lawd this kid can spin it.

Getting Nico and Tate early would give us some ridiculous momentum going into the summer official visits.

 

[reVOLution33]

I think there's a lot going in our favor here.

I think he's the best QB prospect in the class, and I think a lot of other programs are going to spend a lot of time and resources in the Arch sweepstakes and we could benefit from making this kid the priority.

I think Dante Moore is better but "Iamaleava" at that.

Honestly, though I'll be happy to get either one.

I actually think Dante Moore is better from an immediate impact perspective cause he’s built better and Nico needs to gain a bit of weight, but I think Nico’s ceiling is higher

Disagree, look at Trevor Lawrence. He was a rail at Clemson his freshman year and was fine. This kid is 210-215 right now so he'll probably be 220-225 by the time fall of 2023.
