Fri Dec 13 14:50:00 UTC 2024: **Top-Ranked QB Malachi Nelson Enters Transfer Portal Again**
**Boise, ID –** Former five-star quarterback Malachi Nelson, once considered the nation’s top high school prospect, has announced he will enter the NCAA transfer portal for the second time in less than a year. The news comes after a season at Boise State where he failed to secure the starting role.
Nelson, who transferred to Boise State from USC in January, saw limited action this fall, appearing in three games for the Broncos. He lost a closely contested quarterback battle to Maddux Madsen, who led Boise State to a College Football Playoff berth. Nelson’s college career hasn’t lived up to expectations despite his impressive high school record. He holds three years of remaining eligibility.
Boise State head coach Spencer Danielson has yet to comment publicly on Nelson’s decision. Nelson’s manager, Justin Giangrande, confirmed the transfer to ESPN. The highly sought-after quarterback is expected to draw considerable interest from numerous programs.
