Diamond Stone, Malik Newman package deal not a certainty
Posted Jun 19, 2014
There's been much made of a potential Diamond Stone-Malik Newman package deal, but according to the father of five-star center Stone, it's not a certainty. Bob Stone told InsideMDSports.com that the two will team in college if their respective recruitments work out that way, but a package deal isn't -- no pun intended -- set in Stone. "Our objective is to put Diamond in the best position to meet his goals and be successful and I'm sure the Newmans feel the same," the elder Stone said.
