He'll be in AA this weekend. His HS coach is the older brother of UM's LB coach. Also a teammate of UM commit Jordan Morant. Has mentioned that he would like to play both football and baseball in college.

Malone is a big-time baseball prospect, first and foremost. He is ranked the No. 1 first baseman in the class of 2021 by Perfect Game. He plays first base, third base and pitcher, and hit .330, 4 home runs and 27 RBIs as a freshman playing freshman baseball. He also closed two games as a pitcher.

I’ll go in the other direction. I know UM didn’t look good, or relevant for that matter, but that can be used as a tool to make him believe he has a path to early playing time. Sounds as though he has solid internal connections to UM as well. Looks like the type of recruitment that one game will have little impact on. But, one positive we have is Larry Johnson. UM has no one on their staff capable of refining a defensive lineman like coach Johnson. Maybe that wins out in the end.

Top contenders:
Ohio State, Rutgers, Texas A&M, Ole Miss, Notre Dame

Recruiting outlook: Malone’s recruitment has not changed much since the beginning of the year. There are a lot of schools involved in Malone’s recruitment but Ohio State has s strong foothold. Rutgers is building a lot of momentum in the state, so that will be something to keep an eye on. More SEC programs will be in the mix once the recruitment dead period is lifted and Malone can start taking visits.

Farrell’s take: I’m going with the Buckeyes here as they are just recruiting at the next level compared to everyone else.
