More consistent production
Top 10 Recruits with something to prove
1. QB Malik Henry
ESPN 300 Rank: 15
Committed: Florida State
Breakdown: Henry's skillset and ability level have very few question marks, but he is between schools and his next landing spot will be his third school in the last 15 months and he needs to settle into a leadership role and continue to develop and make strides as a senior. There was a lot of speculation at the time of his departure from IMG last spring as to why he was no longer with the program, but that's in the past now and he needs show he can lead a program week in and week out and maximize his physical and mental talents.
