Lincoln Riley will be in charge of USC as they look to regain national prominence. There is a 0:41

Five-star USC commit Malachi Nelson is taking a visit to Texas A&M this weekend, sources confirmed to ESPN on Thursday night.

Sources say that Nelson informed USC head coach Lincoln Riley and the program that he would be visiting College Station, Texas. Jimbo Fisher was the head coach at the time.

After USC hired Lincoln Riley away from the Sooners to be their next head coach, Nelson decided to switch his commitment to USC. Multiple decommitments from Oklahoma, including Nelson, who immediately committed to Riley and USC, were caused by the move.

Nelson was committed to Riley more than he was to Oklahoma, which made the flip more or less a formality.

Nelson visited Texas A&M this week but is still committed to the USC and Riley.

Nelson is expected to headline Riley's first full recruiting class next year and arrive on campus as the likely quarterback of the future for the USC.

The first report of Nelson's visit was made by Tex Ags.
