Well.... Bye

I mean we weren't expecting him back anyway. Whatever. I feel like they were trying to blame his draft stock falling on Howland, which I think is so stupid.

Maybe he can go to Scooba tech. Be a much better fit for him. No defense and stay outside and fire away.

Wish him the best. But we dont need a "me" on a "we" culture we have at Mississippi State. Honestly he has never looked good and it isnt a big loss at all. Weatherspoon and the incoming class make this a solid bubble team.

Sitting out a year makes zero sense in helping him get to NBA. No guarantee he is allowed to play PG at Kansas, UNC, or wherever he transfers.

My concern is that he is used against us as a cautionary tale when we recruit against high profile schools in future.

But, but, but Gene Swindoll said..........

In an exclusive interview with Horatio that Malik would be a bulldog next year. Way to go Swan. Doug Buckles all over again.

Tough for the vision to materialize if you're not starting.

Don't think he liked the roster competition next year.

I posted about this during the year and was called crazy by most who responded. I heard several months ago he was looking at Kansas and I'm still hearing this. However, western Kentucky is in play too.

For all I know, you might be right...

I see a .500 team. Hope I'm wrong.

But we won't go from a good season to .500 or below because we lost Malik. Surely that's not what you were getting at.

When did MN tweet this?
A) After his demotion to 6th man?
B) After he declared for the draft?
C) After he declared his intent to transfer?

Yeah that's not happening. Would only make Newman look like a victim and MSU look bad. Just let him go.

We're way past MN looking like a victim. Sad that people can't figure out that you don't burn the bridge until you're safely across on the other side.

saw Newman is transferring. Can't blame him for getting the hell out of Starkvegas. Elitedawgs is probably hilarious to read right now. Gotta love Staters.

(saw this on a different message board
