Maliek. Does he stay or does he go?

At this point who cares. We need to start from scratch.
 
I'm sure it depends on what the league says as far as where he projects to go.
 
If I was him I'd follow the money. Unless you truly believe things will turn around year 2 for MR and help your draft stock.
 
Going pro will be solely determined by his draft stock, not our head coach or record.
 
If he goes, I don't think he goes as high as he could. I think he's still scratching the surface and could use a little bit more time. Whichever way it ends up, Maliek has to do what's best for him and I wish him the best.
 
As of now there are a couple mock drafts having him go in the 3rd round to St. Louis. I wouldn't if I was him. These next four games will tell the story. He stays and he will be a 1st rounder next year fo sho barring injury of course.
 
I'm going to guess he is a 2nd round guy, early 3rd at the latest. You want to eat when the food is good.. I think he goes.
 
He is having a good year. If he is projected to go in the first 45 picks, he should go to the NFL. He has a young son and finances are a big concern. Football is a very tough game. The body can only take so many hits. Each level upward becomes more of a body abuser. Go while you're relatively healthy. I would like him to stay, but staying at NU seems risky and not a wise move.
 
I don't know but he is very good.
I'm not an expert but I'm not seeing the type of explosive, dominant play from him that being a high round draft choice requires. Reminds me of the overhype at he beginning of the year for a certain safety on the team.
