Madden Iamaleava, a four-star quarterback from Downey, California, has announced his commitment to UCLA for the next chapter of his football career. Standing tall at 6-foot-3, the Warren senior’s decision to stay in Southern California has added excitement to the first-year Big Ten program and Coach DeShaun Foster. This commitment also strengthens the quarterback room for Coach Eric Bieniemy, who is known for his offensive expertise at the NFL level.
As the Super Bowl-winning offensive coordinator, Bieniemy has demonstrated his recruiting skills by securing Iamaleava. According to national recruiting analyst Greg Biggins of 247Sports, Madden explained that UCLA, being his favorite childhood school, seemed like the perfect fit for him. The opportunity to work with Coach Bieniemy, who took the time to get to know him as an individual, was a significant factor in his decision.
Madden’s younger brother Nico is also a talented quarterback and former five-star recruit who currently plays for Tennessee Vols. The brothers’ talent has garnered attention from fans and their impressive stats have set high expectations for their senior year and beyond. The SoCal area eagerly anticipates watching both brothers shine in the years to come as they continue their football careers at UCLA.
