Pinkerton Academy LB Malik Thompson Weighs Transfer Options
Pinkerton Academy Astros senior linebacker Malik Thompson is reportedly considering a transfer from the D-I program following the departure of head coach, citing a desire to play for a new staff. Thompson's potential departure would deal a significant blow to the Astros' defense, which is already thin at the linebacker position. With only a handful of seniors returning in the unit, losing Thompson's experience and leadership would be a significant loss. According to sources, Thompson has received interest from programs in Massachusetts and New York, including top Div-I programs in the region. The Astros will look to fill the void with younger players, but Thompson's potential departure would be a significant setback for the team's pre-season aspirations.
