Jake Weingarten: Top-50 sophomore Malachi Moreno at Cincinnati today for an unofficial visit. No source. He’s here. His brother just played for Eastern Kentucky. Moreno was already a major target for the Bearcats. Got to see his brother and a team going after him.

@jakeweingarten: West Virginia, Kentucky, Cincinnati, Purdue, Indiana, amongst the programs that are going to watch Top-50 sophomore Malachi Moreno this weekend, he told @Stockrisers. I’d say he’s on all of those programs radars heavily in 2025.

“Coach Miller’s pitch is that I need to continue to push through with adversity and not shy away from the competition.”
