If you have watched any of Season 3 or 4 of Last Chance U, that featured the Independence Pirates… You know the name Malik Henry.
He was a DI commit out of High School to Florida State. After things didn’t work out there he went the JUCO route and coach Jason Brown took him under his wing at Indy.
Their relationship was a rocky one but Malik absolutely showed flashes of why he should be playing at the DI level. He has a cannon for an arm…
Connecting for a BOMB of a touchdown on his first pass of the season during LCU season 4. He can control an offense and read a defense as well.
After things didn’t work out last year with Coach Brown and Indy, Malik got an opportunity with Nevada, and it seems he has taken full advantage of it.
