Randy Moss lost his scholarship to Notre Dame for a high school fight. He then got kicked out of Florida St for smoking weed. But he did make it work at Marshall and had one of the most ridiculous statistical WR years in college history.
Talent-wise, he was arguably the best quarterback that was ever showcased on Last Chance U, and he had a really high football IQ, but his unwillingness to be coachable is what came back to bite him in the ass.
@@willardmatsaudza3101 I mean he was in a brief cameo but ya I’d say Chad Kelly was the best EMCC qb in a min! And that’s sayin a lot Malik fizzled out quicker
@@Supremeballer1776 I wouldn’t argue with that he was the best, I was jsut saying he wasn’t on the squad when the tv shows was being filmed. But apart from that yes he was the best qb at that school no arguments here dude balled out at ole miss.
Yeah I think his Dad had a lot to do with it, just in high school I think he played for 3 or 4 different high schools. That’s a sign of his dad shopping him around.
I played in high school with him for a year can confirm dude wasn’t allowed to be a normal kid. He was treated like a quasi celebrity and on top of that wasn’t aloud to date go out with friends or anything that wasn’t related to sports… it was to the point that he missed out on going to our teams end of season celebration party one of the parents had thrown for us… he literally was the only kid not there… imagine that being your life for 4+ years and then your thrown in the lime light… idk about y’all but if that was me I may be acting like a douche too…
It’s understandable that someone wouldn’t put maximum effort into a sport they really didn’t want to play. It’s entirely another thing to treat everyone and anyone like dirt. Plenty of people struggle with addiction and depression, but they don’t go around acting like a self absorbed drama queens. He simply lacks character and integrity.
Its easy to say If my dad did that I would tell him...... No telling how badly he wanted a Dad, how he saw him coming back into his life, or what he was seeking. Wont judge him for interactions with his father as a young guy. His personal interactions with people came from a place of arrogance and no respect. Having a horrible father does not create that mentality.
My new high school football coach talked about him and he made a bad decision and my coach said you work together as a team. Kid said no and now he's in prison for the rest of his life
I felt the same as everyone else but after hearing about his dad i have a little more sympathy for him. However you are always in control of you therefore you can choose not to be an a*shole
Yeah he really didn’t want to play football his father made him, he loved baseball way more, I know he is rude but I think people forget how young he was/is he was like 19 that’s old enough to make choices but at that age your still very immature and still finding yourself…add the fact his home issues he’s gonna point that anger somewhere
@@petrazibarova4725 exactly why Matt is a clown. Literally just tries to make everyone look bad without doing any real research. Fucking hate this channel and it keeps coming up on my recommended cuz of similar videos
@@petrazibarova4725 I unsubscribed to Flemón Raps simply because I didn’t think his contents were objective enough, and he always tries to find excuses for these former football losers for their poor behaviors.
Matt I live in Illinois, I love my Illini, but hey your videos are fantastic and great for life lessons. I will say you are absolutely correct on how to be a great player and not just an elite athlete. Hard Work and focus makes all the difference because it will translate into success later even if one never goes pro.
Question: What happened to Malik Henry? Answer: Malik Henry happened to Malik Henry. Extremely immature. Constantly blaming everyone and everything else other than himself. Arguing with teammates and coaches. None of that has anything to do with his father making him play football. That is his CHARACTER and his CHARACTER was absolute nuclear garbage.
Coach brown was the worst coach ever, didn’t have plays ready, put the players down meantally and never prepared for games. Just look at the team’s record when Malik was there (9-2) vs when he left (1-10). Why u think brown was coaching juco in the first place? Ik some thing Malik did wasn’t right but most was justified based off his situation and the people he was surrounded by. Stop hating bruh y’all don’t even take the time to look into shit, plus ofc Netflix is going to only show the BAD considering it brings more viewers and ratings
@sevsantana1940 so who was the problem at Florida State and everywhere else he failed? Pretty weird how no matter where he goes he fails but apparently it's all Jason Brown's fault 🤷♂️
@sevsantana1940 ha! Yeah the team went 9-2 but Malik didn't play all 11 games. He went 7-2 as the qb but he was terrible. He completed 54% of his passes for 10 tds and 8 ints that year. In his Independence career he completed 52% of his passes for 11 tds and 11 ints in 12 games. He was absolute trash
@@sevsantana1940 agree JB isn’t the coach he thinks he is, but Malik isn’t as good as he thinks he is. Should have been dominating at JUCO level and he wasn’t. There’s a reason JB isn’t coaching now and Malik isn’t playing, let that sink in.
Imo having that attitude stems from how you were raised. Seems like Malik always had tension with his dad and probably lashes out to everyone else around him because he feels like he can’t do that to his dad
Oh man rattler was the WORST teammate in high school. He prolly still is a shitty teammate now. I wouldn’t be surprised. Dude think he’s the best qb in the world but he’s just extremely overrated.
The whole violation of team rules thing not leaking out isn't all that surprising look at another Netflix football star, Spencer Rattler, has anyone actually found out what happened to get him to miss the remainder of that season?
At the end of the day every man is human. In life he could have messed up a million times. People never talked about the come back even if its the 11th time doing so. Still was a show favorite and still rocking wit Malik till this day
So my bro played the same year he was on the team. Malek was a coke head and he came to practice high every other day. Boy argued with his qb coach every meeting.
FSU fan here. That was the rumor (not really a rumor though if you know what I mean) when he was in Tallahassee. I followed his recruiting as well because he was a special talent. The true FSU recruiting insiders stated all the red flags all over. From transferring to IMG Academy and abruptly leaving and so much more. In the end they were correct.
It's honestly sad, dude was a great athlete. I was one of the people who actually liked him, I wish he wouldn't have wasted his opportunity to grow though.
I'm good friends with a guy that was booted off a JUCO Baseball, JUCO Basketball, and TWO DIFFERENT college football teams. But he had a lot of fun and tons of life experience.
If you watch last chance u you would know he got kicked off of Florida State cause he wouldn’t go to class. There were also episodes in last chance u when they were on his behind cause he wouldn’t go to class
Unfortunately I'm a recovered addict that had a problem with zannys and pain pills after a bad car accident. The drugs made me depressed because I knew I was doing wrong. I was scared of the withdrawals but it never made me cocky. I think that's a personality problem this kid has. Drugs just ruined him but he would have been a punk regardless
I don’t know you but I am a addict in recovery as well. Please hang in there and make sure you have a good hobby to keep busy…I game a lot and try to give my 5 year old son better. If you ever need someone to talk to just let me know
@@adamkostowicz7289 Thank you very much and bless you and your son. I'm doing very well, I work 10-12 hr per day 5 days a week. I paint cars, tour busses, boats on the side as well to keep myself busy. I have a 12 year old new years day baby girl and she was my reason for rehab. I should have said recovering in my prior comment instead of recovered because I am an addict and I believe you are always one and it's up to the person to get clean and stay clean. You are very kind for your words and the offer for a voice if I need it. I hope the absolute best for you and child. Thanks again friend, Allen J, CBus Ohio. 🙏
If he was that good at football for that long.. He most likely had people telling him that his whole life and he thought he was a god amongst people. So when someone told him he was doing something wrong, he would take it the wrong way. Not everything is someone elses fault someone turned out how they are. His dad sounded like he was in it trying to catch the gravy train, hopefully he turns his life around and can take criticism.
Well, i can't speak for your experience with your son. And maybe anytime your son was suspended for 'violation of team rules' it was because of banned substances(& i mean no offense). But that certainly doesnt represent every player who was suspended for violation of team rules. It's generally just used as a catch all term by coaches to spare the player/team/staff the embarrassment of explaining specificities to the public/press.
Dude transfered in high school from Westlake HS in the LA area to Long Beach Poly his Sr year but later became ineligible and cost his team a shot of the playoffs.. I didn't like him from then on
Probably fear. Fear that if he disagreed or stood up to his father he’d leave again. Fear is one of the best tactics to keep someone in line. He’s basically a grown man in appearance only but a little boy emotionally. The tantrums included. That’s what I’m getting from this video anyways.
The Back to the Future analogy is closer to an acceptable illustration of the Butterfly Effect than the first one you gave. The theory stems from the idea that a butterfly flapping its wings in say Germany can cause a hurricane in say Florida. It’s not about “what if’s”, it’s about a chain reaction of cause and effect triggered by seemingly unrelated actions.
Dude just balled out for my arena team in NC last night with 6 tds. I missed the game but checked it out on youtube. I was like,"wait that name sounds familiar." Then i checked and yeah, watched this vid about a month or so back
Lol... why would he be desperately trying to play football literally anywhere that will take him if he doesn't like football and doesn't want to play? He's 24, failed at football the last 6+ years and he's still trying to play? Pretty sure he wants to play.
Dude just seemed to me, like a rich kid (no idea if he was or not) who’s parents paid a bunch of coaches and trainers in high school to tell him he’s the best there is and when he got to Florida state he was expected to work for and earn his spot and he thought he was above that.
Malik would not listen to the quarterback coach and told others not to listen to him. So the QB coach said "screw this" and left. Probably this was just what Malik wanted. The guy is probably poison in the locker room.
Some people make excuses for horrible behavior based on a not so subtle reason. Which is also another huge difference between this kid and Johnny manziel.
Hold up!! You speaking double talk. First you say you have no idea why he got released from FSU. Then you come back and say he was released because he was too cocky and had a bad attitude. Wth
It’s an extremely questionable decision to use your platform to paint someone as a possible drug addict/dealer based off one Reddit post and a few tweets.
I was a D1 Player (football) His father, new he was better at football rather then baseball. My favored spot was hockey, and I was good at it, and loved the game. But football I was like a fish to to water. So Instead of going to collage for hockey, I knew my best chances at a career in spots, was football. I made the smarter choice, play football. This kid, was an A-hole and thought he was better then he was. Don't blame his father for coming back into his life. He's mother is the one who gave him the mess-up attitude. Stop blaming the Man for it! it takes more than a year for some athlete to have that kind of attitude. The truth is his mother probably ran his dad off when he was young.
@@AdamB34 arrogant jerk gigantic douche you got all this from a T.V. show? The feds must be beating your door down for you to be a profiler. The point is the kid didn’t want to play football and was forced to he loved baseball. You think having your absentee father show up out of the blue when you’re getting noticed/press for sport, then dude tells you give up your love to play his love is good for a kid?That kids biggest problem was his old man trying to live vicariously through him after being a dead beat dad for the better part of a decade.
@atex6175 hahahaha!!! Read your original comment where you base your opinion of him entirely on a TV show 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. "Bro, watch the show"- you Fyi... he was an arrogant douche since high school and didn't get along with numerous coaches, teammates and teachers at every level he played. This isn't something that just happened on the show, it's been his downfall since high school. Also... stop pretending that not playing baseball was some abusive thing that made him a jerk lol. I loved football but my parents wouldn't let me play after junior high because of concerns about head trauma. Oh well, I just played 4 other sports and didn't become an insufferable prick that thinks I'm better and smarter than everyone else in the world. Half of marriages end in divorce, most kids grow up in split homes, lots of successful people only had 1 parent... stop blaming everyone but him. You act like he grew up poor and abused but he grew up upper class and spoiled lol. You clearly don't know anything about him.
@@AdamB34 if you watched the show the grandmother his father’s mother said flat out the father fucked the kid up. I’m basing my opinion off what someone close to the situation said not my assumptions on a situation I’m not personally involved with.
@@AdamB34 not playing baseball wasn’t a punishment? He was ripped away from all his friends and everyone he grew up with to be a free agent high school qb. He was getting looked at in both sports why rip the kid away from a situation he was obviously thriving in? Also he didn’t get along with the coaches? That was more his father meddling and filling his head with shit. Obviously you’ve never coached and had to deal with the parents of “super star” kids
I think he was a great player talent wise he just was cocky if from someone that has been to a juco you have guys all over that are d1 athletes that just didn’t have the grades to get into a d1 out of high school that are at a juco that think they’re better than the coach it’s a pride thing
I bet Malik was upset they kept giving him chances! He didnt want to play, thats obvious. He was like how many times do i gotta get kicked out of college for people to stop wanting me to play football for them!?!?
A little more research and you would have found that Henry played in seven games during the 2021 season for the Frisco Fighters of the Indoor Football League where he posted pedestrian stats: 76/140 for 778 yards, 10 TDs and 5 Ints.
No coach would kick you off a team for having a drug problem unless it’s weed any good coach who knows a player has a drug problem would try and get them help not send them home with another reason to do drugs
He wasn't a horrible player or anything, but like you said it was definitely obvious after watching LCU that his dad cared more about football than he did. It always seemed like his dad was trying to live his football dreams vicariously through his son. Malik probably would've been better off playing baseball
Dude the butterfly effect is if you go back in the past and killed a butterfly that even something so small could cause huge changes to the future. Nothing to do with people saying what if. Lol
Ummmm. What if means, what if I went back in time and changed something, would i have altered my future for the better? That's the same thing as the butterfly effect
He wanted his dad to stay around, to please him, and to love him. But, the juxtaposition of that internal disappointment and anger and dispair intersected EXTERNALLY to cause a constant angry attitude. If his dad had said: I love you son, and I want to help you achieve YOUR dream. If you want to play baseball, that's great, I'll help you any WAY I can. He would have been happier , and less angry. Probably still have the ego, though.
Honestly why doesn’t he just go back to try baseball I don’t think it’s too late he clearly doesn’t have passion for football and that’s fine but it’s clear from watching Last Chance U that he loved baseball way more
Yeah it stinks when an absentee or dead beat father just shows up out of nowhere and tries to force their pipe dreams on you for their own vicarious living 🤦🏻♂️
Good job by the FSU coaches who wouldn't tolerate Henry's BS and sent him packing. By contrast Texas A&M tolerated Manzel's disrespect of every opposing team and their fans. Just disgusting behavior by Manzel AND the A&M staff and University officials who did nothing. Who would want to send their son or daughter to a school like that????
I dislike his dad more than Malik, I just felt like he was doing something he didn't want and acted out bc of that (not condoning some of the things he did). I actually think he had a real high football IQ, I think he'd be a good coach if he wanted to one day
