The Nussmeier genes are really making the whole football world crazy over them. Not only is the QB sibling duo making a strong presence on their respective teams, but they are also ensuring that they stay on top. However, with recent events unfolding, Garrett Nussmeier’s younger brother has given him a reason to feel proud because of his recent achievements with his team, Marcus.
Today, Colton Nussmeier took to Instagram to share a glimpse of Marcus High School’s Friday night win of 33-32 against the Flower Mound, saying, “family tradition.” His elder brother Garrett Nussmeier was also part of the same high school, and now Colton is stepping in his footsteps. What could be a more proud moment for a big brother than seeing his younger brother shine bright in his career? In no time Garrett commented on Colton’s post, saying, “The sickest! 
” Giving a major sibling goal.
Well, Colton Nussmeier deserves all the appreciation, as the young player has slowly made his way to the On3’s top prospects ranking, suppressing his brother Garrett’s record. Surprising right? At the time Garrett parted ways with Marcus, he was recognized as one of the top 100 prospects and the 11th-best quarterback in the 2021 class. However, Colton made his debut as the sixth-ranked quarterback and is considered one of the top 50 prospects.
These rankings even assisted him in receiving early offers from several high-end universities. While Colton had offers from SMU, North Carolina, and Oklahoma State, the one that captured his interest the most was the one that also had a special significance to him. Let’s find out what that is.

Colton has not only been emerging as a promising player in his high school, but he has also caught the attention of many prestigious programs. But the most expected one was from the LSU Tigers, as it is no surprise considering that his older brother, Garrett, is already playing as a starting quarterback for the LSU Tigers. As a result, Colton also received an offer from the team.
However, the team had eyes on him since the start of the season as Tiger’s head coach, Brian Kelly, and offensive coordinator invited him to the camp in June, where they conducted a practice session with him. Finally, on September 28, Colton received an official offer from the Tigers for the 2027 recruiting class.
The young quarterback was quite excited after getting the offer and quickly took to his social media handles to express his gratitude towards the staff and also talked about the importance the offer holds in his life, saying, “It’s very special because my family is from there and my brother is the starting quarterback.” Colton even highlighted the fact that during the camp he learned a lot from OL coach Joe Sloan and also developed a good relationship with him. Well, now it will be interesting to see if Colton ultimately lands in LSU or not!
