Nicholaus Iamaleava received scholarship offers in volleyball long before he picked up his first offer in football. Iamaleava is ranked by some volleyball analysts as the top high school volleyball prospect in the country. He played varsity volleyball as a freshman at Long Beach Poly – one of the top high school teams in the country. Iamaleava transferred from Poly to Downey (Calif.) Warren before the start of his junior season. His older brother, Matt, was a high school All-American in volleyball at Poly and is now at Long Beach State. His sister, Nicaylah, is playing volleyball at Cypress College. Overall, Iamaleava has seven siblings, and all are standouts at one level or another. His parents are Nic and Marleinna Iamaleava. His mother was diagnosed with stage four breast cancer at the end of 2020 and the community rallied to raise thousands of dollars to support her fight against the disease. Iamaleava plans on majoring in business. He lists his hobbies as playing video games and training his dogs.

Like Justin Herbert, Nico Iamaleava is a taller, big-armed quarterback with some of the better natural physical tools we've seen from a quarterback in the last few recruiting cycles. Both check in at over 6-foot-5 and have big arms with the ability to drive the football to all levels of the field. They're also gifted athletically, with the reactive quickness to make plays with their mobility.
