**FAYETTEVILLE, AR** – Highly touted quarterback Madden Iamaleava has announced his commitment to the University of Arkansas, choosing the Razorbacks over a host of other top programs. The four-star prospect from Long Beach Poly High School in California is considered one of the nation’s top quarterback recruits in the class of 2025.
Iamaleava, a 6-foot-3, 200-pound signal-caller, had a stellar junior season at Warren High School, throwing for over 3,600 yards and 43 touchdowns with only four interceptions, leading his team to an 11-3 record and a CIF-SS Division 3 semifinal appearance. He was named the Gateway League’s Co-Offensive Player of the Year.
While rankings vary slightly across recruiting services, Iamaleava consistently ranks among the top 250 prospects nationally. ESPN ranks him as the No. 142 overall prospect and No. 12 pocket-passing quarterback, while Rivals places him at No. 207 overall and No. 6 dual-threat quarterback.
His commitment to Arkansas is a significant coup for the Razorbacks. Iamaleava’s impressive skillset and athleticism, combined with his impressive high school statistics, make him a highly sought-after recruit. He follows in the footsteps of his brother, Nico Iamaleava, who currently plays quarterback at the University of Tennessee. His decision ends a recruitment process that saw him consider offers from schools including UCLA, Arizona, Auburn, and numerous other Power Five programs.
