I watched the entire meet. As noted above, Malone missed out on the all around title by messing up several skills on the P bars. 

5th year senior Thomas Lee missed out on the rings title in his last meet with a 0.5 deduction on his dismount, almost falling. Teammate Riley Loos took that title.

I doubt Malone comes back next year. He would have to pay a lot of money to do so. Gymnastics gets only 6.3 scholarships for 20 guys. He's better off getting paid by USA Gymnastics to train for the Olympics.

Brandon Briones should be back next year after recovering from injuries. He'll take the burden from Malone. 

Loos will be back. He was underutilized this year.

The best junior gymnast in the world will be at Stanford next year - Asher Hong. He may overtake Malone as the best gymnast in the country. He is already on the USA national team. He's the first high school kid on the senior national team in a long time. He likely gets whatever scholarship money Malone was getting.

According to this article, Malone is trying to figure out a way to come back for a fifth year from a finance standpoint. https://gostanford.com/news/2022/4/13/fe...amily.aspx

Trying not to graduate until spring. Interesting. He would have to get need based aid apparently. He does have a single dad (mom died of cancer I believe) and several siblings. Here is where the NIL situation is incredibly uneven. He's the top male gymnast in the country. You would think he could earn 100K. But no one knows who he is.
