Maliki Crawford brings SEC-caliber length to SJSU’s secondary
In the 2025 season, Maliki Crawford arrived at San Jose State as a former four-star recruit and USC transfer, then played in two games while giving the Spartans a rare 6'4" cornerback frame with upside in press coverage and matchup flexibility.[1][10][14] His profile screams projection: elite size for the position, verified recruiting pedigree, and a clean runway to develop into a disruptive outside CB, though his on-field college production is still thin, so he looks more like a high-upside fit than a finished product.[1][7][11]
