Always nice to read something during the off season.

Love having a highly ranked kid with the attitude he has. He won’t be a cancer on the team if he doesn’t start, talks a lot about doing the little things, is a winner, works hard etc., etc.
Great addition that should help out a lot as a freshman at both the 4 and 5.

I took a look at 247 to refresh my memory as to where Malik ended up being ranked. Once the ball is rolled out the rankmgs don’t mean squat but I found a few things interesting.

Malik ended up ranked 28th ( very high 4 star) and is the 3rd highest rated PF in the country. JHS at 22 and Malik at 28 are the 2 highest ranked BT recruits. Clowney ended up falling to 72nd and the 11th highest ranked PF. Things seemed to work out for us, in regards to landing a PF, and it will be interesting to see how each of them do.

Friggin Duke. Their 2022 class consists of 3 of the top 4 recruits and 5 of the top 26 (and they already have 4 of the top 23 2023 kids). Unreal. It is, however more surprising to see Arkansas land 3 of the top 18 players.
