Class of 2023 QB Malachi Nelson (CA) TRANSFERRING TO SYRACUSE (1/16/26)

If I had to guess, he makes poor decisions

Makes sense. Hopefully not as bad as Rickie. Let's see what the coaches can do with him.

I’d be more excited if he was a 4x Texas state champion.

Fran is legendary

This is a perfect depth piece.

Watched a couple YouTube stories about him. Interesting journey. Hard to understand how he hasn't been successful, somewhere. Throws a nice ball and is athletic enough. Nice HS clips. Seems a little burnt out in his college footage.

Sounds like million dollar arm 10 cent head.

Someone tell him the rose goes in the front

8 TDs and 9 INTs last year at UTEP.
Maybe some smoke and mirrors

Beats 6tds and 10ints

From what I’ve heard about Malachi is that none of his problems are due to physical traits.

He was a 5 star for a reason… it was all mental very similar to Rickie Collins.

He had trouble processing and learning the playbook. Issues with poor decision making as well.

Hmm. Well if we give him 2026 to learn the offense, then maybe it’s possible he’ll develop into an adequate 2nd stringer next year if Odom leaves?

I have trouble processing the QB room.

Let’s just say the QB room - I’m feeling wall to wall arm talent.

Yea, i think by now we should have learned our lesson with these former 5 stars , 2-3 years out of HS who have not yet performed, especially at QB.

Please tell me what we lose here Debbie.

He looks like a quarterback. Porn stash and all

He can throw it over them mountains
