Funny story about Malik

[Marian Hinton]

Before I tell you, let me preface this by saying I know it sounds really silly, and it's information handed to me by my 9th grade nephew, but today was College Day at Poteet and Malik was wearing a Texas shirt. The coaches visited there today, so that could explain why he chose to wear that, but the funny part is that he and my nephew were in class (an elective, don't worry, he's not taking 9th grade classes) and one of the teachers said, "Texas? You should go to A&M." Malik said, "Why would anyone want to go there?"

Again, who knows--this is from a 15 year old, but one that I love and trust. I know it's supposedly between us and Aggy, so not sure why he would knock them, but take it FWIW. 

Anyway, just thought it was funny, if true.

I really like Malik, it has nothing to do with his football talent either. Seems like a genuinely good kid.

It all starts with his strong family upbringing.

How is his mother doing?

I hear Malik's momma really likes Coach Strong, so we've got that going for us.  It's looking good for UT.  \m/

Funny thing is, there's a 3-page meltdown on OBs about these two tweets:

Laugh out loud.

Most kids would be excited about a helicopter ride. Doesn't mean he'll go to college there.

This one will come down to dec guys and gals. Mom is in our corner that's a great thing. I would be more afraid of Baylor then ag right now though.

Now that is interesting. . . .

Care to share some more on that?
