When Malik Newman signed this past spring to play for Mississippi State basketball, I was a little concerned something like what we are witnessing would happen. He’s been really good as a Bulldog, but he hasn’t just lit the world on fire. Now, there are a lot of Bulldog fans who think he will be back for one more season.
It isn’t happening.
Things haven’t gone as well for Newman as he nor the Mississippi State Bulldogs would like. He started the season off with a turf toe injury, and he was severely hampered in the first few games of the season.
