5 new college football starting QBs who will break out in 2024
5. Nico Iamaleava, Tennessee
Volunteer fans have been buzzing about Nico Iamaleava since he committed back in 2022 and they will get the chance to see him as the starter this season.
Iamaleava spent last year backing up Joe Milton after coming out as a top quarterback in the 2023 class. We did get a little taste of him in the bowl game where he got the start and accounted for four touchdowns.
Quarterbacks are known to do well in head coach Josh Heupel's high-powered spread offense, and I expect nothing different from the former five-star.
