At least in my mind it does. Like you say, we need more of that kind of suck. He hasn’t stuck in the NFL. He’s played in like 3 games. He’s a practice squad guy. If that validates a 5-star guy that was a third round pick, I feel sad you apparently forgot 1998-2010.

August 31, 20223 yr Just now, jimmyjazz said: He's played in 34 games. No he hasn’t. You’re looking at the games he’s dressed for, where he hasn’t been on the PS. Him having 16 total tackles (9 solo) should be a huge tell tale he hasn’t played in 34 games.

Him having 16 total tackles (9 solo) should be a huge tell tale he hasn’t played in 34 games. Uh, no. Ultimately, I don't really care -- a HS player eventually banking several $M in the NFL is not some kind of embarassment. By the end of his tenure at Texas it was pretty obvious he wasn't a top-tier NFL prospect, as evidenced by his draft selection. He's hung around. Most college players, even plenty of blue chip HS prospects, would be happy with that. Nobody is saying he's gonna be All-Pro.
August 31, 20223 yr Sorry Malik fucked your woman, Porterhouse. What a failure collecting an NFL check for 5 years. Must suck to know you're eligible for an NFL pension. Edited August 31, 20223 yr by Deej
August 31, 20223 yr He’s been a disappointment since his freshman year and the personification of Texas football over this dreadful stretch. Maybe he can go shine in the CFL like his twin Jackson Jeffcoat. I’ll never understand this board’s inability to candidly evaluate this guy.
August 31, 20223 yr A little food for thought: 63.8% of 5-star HS players were not selected in the top 3 rounds of the NFL draft (2002-2008). Almost half of them (47.8%) were not drafted at all. 5-star recruits & the NFL Edited August 31, 20223 yr by jimmyjazz

He was a great ambassador for the program at a time when one was sorely needed. Sadly he was one of many over the past decade plus who regressed over his years here. Seems like for whatever reason football never clicked for him. I wish him well in his future endeavors

I wonder what the pension eligibility rules are. If you’re a PS guy for much of that period, are you still eligible? Regardless, he didn’t make much money. First, NFL players don’t, across the board, make that much. At most he made $4mm over his career and it’s probably closer to $3mm.

Regardless, he didn’t make much money. First, NFL players don’t, across the board, make that much. At most he made $4mm over his career and it’s probably closer to $3mm. A season is 3 games played per year in the NFL. Malik has eclipsed the 3 years necessary to make the NFL pension program (and the tuition reimbursement program) and with one more season of at least 3 appearances he'll be qualified for the Player Annuity Program as well. There are other programs that he may be a part of that also increase your retirement portfoliol. It's not set-for-life or fuck you money, but the guy has made enough money and has enough retirement padding to live well in his retired years with an even average income going forward, so anything he makes from now to 55+ is just adding to that QOL. (** assuming he hasn't amassed a mountain of idiotic debt as many guys do)

Yes, we'd love for every Horn to be an All-Pro and Super Bowl MVP, but comeon....calling him out when other muthafuckas are completely cut, is just childish, since you ran to this thread immediately.

I heard he was cut this morning. I came over here to find a bunch of apologists. He was a part of Texas’ worst stretch ever and y’all follow him like he’s meaningful. I don’t get it. And I’m simply returning negs. I have nothing against you.
August 31, 20223 yr Popular Post Dude was a Longhorn and seemed to be a pretty stand up guy. Did he live up to the hype? No. Does that mean UT fans should shit all over him? Nope. That's just you.

August 31, 20223 yr How many people can move to a second career with potentially $1M+ in the bank while still in their 20s? Assuming he saved well, he’ll be fine if he decides to hang it up.
