Mountaineers head coach Neal Brown asked Malone what he was thankful for, to which Malone answered, “I’m thankful for my family, all of you guys included, and being able to represent West Virginia. Being here growing up and wearing the jersey.”
Assistant head coach Matt Moore followed by telling Malone he forgot one thing to be thankful for. It was then Malone’s picture was displayed on the endzone video board, saying “Nick Malone, You’re on Scholarship”, igniting a cheer from the Mountaineer players.
