Well, well, well. This Nico Iamaleava fiasco already has a spin-off story in quick development. The Tennessee QB is already dealing with the brutal aftermath of his daredevil decision to leave Knoxville. Now, it seems like the apple truly doesn’t fall far from the tree.
Nico’s brother Madden Iamaleava also followed in his footsteps and ditched Arkansas. In fact, it seems like Madden was playing hopscotch with UCLA and Arkansas this whole time. The younger Iamaleava was initially committed to UCLA, saw more money offered by Arkansas, and jumped camp. Now, without ever playing a game for the Razorbacks, he’s saying ta-ta to them to go back to UCLA. But now, programs have had it enough.
Arkansas AD Hunter Huracheck had announced the program would be going after Madden for violating their agreement. The program now demands a compensation of $600,000 for his antics, reports On3‘s Pete Nakos. Someone’s got to draw a line for these brothers.
Nico has already damaged what was looking like a great career at Tennessee. Few would’ve questioned him moving if it wasn’t so evidently clear why he did it. Now, as his brothers join hands at UCLA, it shows that NILs cannot be running the show in college football.
