Report: Malik Zaire to delay commitment until mid-April

One Power Five program will receive a graduate transfer commitment from a talented southpaw this off-season, but we’ll have to wait a bit longer than expected to find out which one.

According to Scout.com’s Pete Sampson, former Notre Dame quarterback Malik Zaire will delay his decision to commit to a program as a graduate transfer until mid-April. Sampson spoke with the signal caller’s father, Imani Zaire.

It had been noted that both Wisconsin and North Carolina were the frontrunners for the talented quarterback, especially the Badgers as head coach Paul Chryst recruited Zaire prior to taking the head coaching job at Pitt after the 2011 season.
