I think the only reason not to blame Malik is in the sense that he shouldn’t have been on the field the begin with. We all seem to know what Malik brings to the table except for Richt, Malik, and Malik’s fam.
Unfortunately Richt runs the ship, and Malik is a competitor who won’t turn down an opportunity. Most of us knew what was coming when he was named starter... That’s why it’s hard to fault him. We understand he played terrible, but not really his fault taking everything into consideration.
What’s worrisome is if Malik was really our best option.
