WR/RB Lamaar "Flash" Thomas (transfer to New Mexico)

[dingyibvs]

Harvin's actually 5'11 and 188, at least that's what he's listed as on UF's official roster.

The fastest recruit in this year's class is actually Jeff Demps from Florida. He just ran a laser timed 10.25 in the AAU Junior Olympics Semifinals and a 10.26 in the Finals. He ran FIVE 10.40 or under times during the track season a few months ago, winning the Florida 2A track title with a record breaking 10.37(old record of 10.38 was held by Walter Dix, this year's NCAA 100m champion). He also won the Junior Olympics in the 200m withe a laser timed 21.04.

Wasn't there a mid season period where Harvin got hurt and Florida's offense stalled?

I don't see Tress using Thomas like Harvin. Different offensive systems.
I do see Thomas as a slot type receiver who gets mismatches. (Gonzo)
Or even split out. (Santonio Holmes)

According to his Rivals profile, Lamaar will visit Ohio State on the weekend of September 22nd (Nortwestern game), and Illinois on the weekend of September 29th (Penn State game). His third official visit has not been scheduled.

I want LT badly for two reasons. Speed and versatility.

illinois having the last visit is still an uneasy feeling.

however, there will be roughly 40K in champaigne to watch psu horsewhip the illini.

That'll be a night game in a newly renovated stadium. It will be an electric environment...at least by Illini standards.

As long as we have the first or last official, I have no complaints. It's when we are in the middle when I feel a little uneasy.

Zook doesn't scare me with Thomas, based on geography and the type of role he would play at OSU. He would shine at OSU if he were to commit to us.

Zook shouldn't scare anyone when it comes to Thomas...Coach Locksley should...

Those initials alone don't hurt his cause.....

No doubt we have to over come their long standing relationship...but I think it is *VERY* doable.

However, I would not be surprised if Locksley is why the Illini will have final visit so we shouldn't sleep on their ties.....but I remains optimistic that we can pull him into Cbus!

Is he planning on rescheduling his UT visit?

 

[ryan20]

He said something along the lines that its a possibility but he didn't seem to be real set on it.

 

[Napoleonbuck]

Would it be safe to say that Ohio State and Illinois are pretty far ahead right now? He seemed less than enamored with Florida, and this can't be good for Tennessee's chances.
