I think Maalik's most likely time to see the field is probably 2 seasons down the road. Quinn could start this fall and the next season before leaving the job open in 2024. That's Maalik's most likely opportunity to seize the job. I don't think Ewers really impacts Maaliks chance for a future starting job.
I think we are too quick to determine a Maalik's true development time map, what are we basing these guesses on, just a hunch; I see lot's of posts that he is "2 years out" or a "project"; no one knows squat LOL
Thats true. Maalik needs work on certain aspects of his technique. How long that takes to develop is largely up to Maalik himself. Foot work can be corrected rather quickly with a receptive player. It all depends on the brain we're working with. So far, Maalik checks all the boxes though.
It seems to be what a lot of talent evaluators have alluded to. He doesn't play in a big time high school program. I know he has done a lot of work already with big time QB trainers but not a lot of high level on field reps. You are right, I don't know squat, just putting together the general gist of what most people who know at least some stuff have said.
