Head Coach Mitch Stewart announced the addition of Delaware State wide receiver Malik Golson for 2016 season Thursday. The redshirt senior, who receives his undergraduate degree from Delaware State this spring, will utilize the graduate transfer rule and will be able to play immediately upon arrival.
Golson, a 5-9, 180 lb. native of Dover, Delaware, played three seasons for the Hornets and finished second on the team in receiving in each of those three seasons. He racked up 517 yards as a freshman for DSU in 2013, but last season averaged a career high 14.0 yards per catch, to go along with three scores. Over three seasons, Golson caught 100 passes for 1,072 yards and nine touchdowns.
He was also DSU's leading punt returner in each of those three seasons totaling 154 yards on 20 punts for an average of 7.7 yards per return. Golson was also utilized as a kick returner during his time as a Hornet, reeling off 281 yards on 20 returns for an average of 14.1 yards per return.
Golson now becomes the 35th member of Stewarts's 2016 class and the eighth receiver.
