Welcome to Warchant TV or JCS Overtime. How about that? Right? Just got off the air and away we go with news. Got to talk about it, Tommy, as Malik McLean, who we were just discussing on today's Jeff Cameron show. You can check out the Jeff Cameron show on the Warchamp podcasts and on Warchant TV, along with all of other great programming like Seminole headlines and Wake Up Warchant. And of course, you could always go to the website, Warchant.com. For now, let's talk about it. Malik McLean has decided to enter the transfer portal. Malik McLean, you'll see, I think, here in just one second, Tom, and three, two, one did exactly this last year. 17 catches, 206 yards, three touchdowns. Real upside to that young man,

I think, in that sense that you're sad to see him go. And the other sense, you could argue

he was the fifth choice wide receiver as this group is currently constructed. And maybe he thinks

he can do better. We are in the world in

which kids do have opportunities and hear from other universities on the regular about

NIL possibilities. And this is the stuff you're going to have to deal with. Yeah, I'd say,

you know, this is a situation where maybe both sides could be right. Malik McLean had shown

enough towards the end of the

season last year where you think about the Syracuse game. There's a one-on-one situation. He shows

the toughness, shoves a kid into the ground on the way to a touchdown. He made a really tough

catch and also ran type game late in the season, but a really tough adjustment. Good film for him

to show hands, breaking back on a football. And then over the top in the season, but a really tough adjustment. Good film for him to show hands breaking back on a football.

And then over the top in the final regular season game against Florida on a deep post.

So you've got a combination of strength, hands, and speed, and just those three plays.

And it sounds so minuscule, but when Florida State has five and six legitimate targets in its passing offense, you're not going to get the ball a whole lot.

So this is something where I thought maybe spring football would be the time in which, you know, the decisions are made about the two deep.

And maybe you'd see some kids enter the portal after spring camp.

This one just happened to predate the beginning of spring camp. So Malik McLean is looking for better options. And he might very well be right. This is a loaded wide receiver room for Florida State. One of the frustrating things is that I think when you accrue talent, you get to a place where like Florida State's at, is that you will lose guys. And you just have to now know that is part of the equation with the ability to transfer, with the ability to get NIL offers from other schools because let's not kid ourselves.

That's happening all the time.

People trying to pluck your roster for kids just like this, who they see upside with and then they know has to be unhappy without being the guy or maybe not enough footballs to go around,

as you just noted, and maybe they can lure him off your roster.

I don't know what happened here, but it is not a surprise.
