i hope this is a sign of many good things to come for Thomas based on his performance today...i still remember Taurian Washington having a huge spring game and having high hopes only to be crushed when Washington didnt live up to that hype

Thomas just looks ready, though. Great route running, great hands, quick feet. It's going to be fun to watch him the next few years.

I agree with you...kind of wondering( I understand he was catching) why Braxton was so locked on him? The Grey team seemed to have some guys that could catch the ball too. Who are the starting 3 receivers? Thomas, Smith and Brown?

The thing about Thomas is he has an intense desire to be great. He works out with former pros (Keyshawn, TO) in the offseason and wants to be great. I'm not sure ever had the same level of dedication Mike does.

Starting 3? I'm not so sure that will be relevant in Urban's offense. He wants as many looks at every skill position as he can. That being said, we can't forget about Spencer, Fields, and Reed.

Vannett looks like he's really going to benefit from playing in Meyer's offense. Not only that, but if Stoney and Vannett are on the field at the same time, there's mismatches all over the field.

Hyde looked great, Smith looked great, Dunn looked great. We are spoiled at the RB position this year.

O-Line played great today. A few mistakes here an there, but most importantly, no boneheaded false starts, holding calls, or illegal blocks. Huge improvement already in that department.

After watching the spring game I have no doubts we will be national championship good in 2013. The offense will be loaded. Also to anyone who thought Urbans offense was a one trick pony they would be DEAD wrong. What we saw today (even though they didn't show much) was much more power game oriented then what we was saw the last few years at UF. Also a lot more ball control passing...

I think we're gonna be OK! :biggrin:

Thomas is a stud and will play a lot.
Dunn is a stud. He can even catch the ball.
Rod Smith got his pads down and was running over people and dragging them.
Vannett looked good.
I worry about the offensive line, though....

Chris Carter? You are reborn hard!
Crowell looks like a player.
Luke Roberts is under rated.
Lots of players on D!
