Quarterback Malachi Nelson, ESPN's No. 1 overall recruit from 2023, will take an official visit to Boise State in the upcoming days, sources told ESPN on Thursday.

It will be his first visit since leaving USC, where Nelson spent his freshman season in 2023 before entering the NCAA transfer portal in December. The trip to Boise State will mark his first official visit, as he's received interest from myriad high-profile programs.

Boise State looms as the favorite as Nelson, sources told ESPN, looks for a blue-collar program where he can blend in and prove himself while growing up with a strong team.
