Malachi Toney might have dropped a small hint about his future at Miami on Sunday night.
The Hurricanes wide receiver was sitting courtside at the Heat game when he was recognized during a break. The broadcast caught Toney on the big screen, and moments later he was gifted with a Miami Heat jersey. The number on it was No. 1 with his last name on it.
There’s been no word from Toney or the program about a jersey change heading into next season, but No. 1 isn’t exactly random. That’s the number Toney wore in high school at American Heritage, and it’s also a number usually worn by the top players in the program.
It’s also worth noting that new Miami quarterback Darian Mensah wore No. 10 at Duke — the same number Toney currently wears. If Toney were to switch, going from 10 to 1 would make a lot of sense.
Could it mean nothing? Sure. Could it mean something? Also yes.
Either way, it’s something to keep in mind. Don’t be surprised if Malachi Toney looks a little different when Miami takes the field next season.
