Recruiting notebook: With an eye toward giving back, ex-Owl Malone picks Cornell
“I want to give back to the communities in Memphis where kids don’t really have the opportunities that have been presented to me,” said Devin Malone, seen here with his mother, LeAndrea Taylor, at an MUS game in 2019. Malone has committed to play at Cornell and he is spending this year at Phillips Exeter Academy in New Hampshire. (Coutesy Devin Malone)
When the offer from Stetson didn’t work out, the former MUS standout embraced a New England opportunity.
