He was definitely in. TWash and him switched up as the #3 WR throughout, though that's easy to get overlooked.

Gotta be honest, I am really disappointed with this one. I still think Lamar could have been great here, but you can't blame him really, he didn't get much of a shot. I just remember being so excited when he committed and had a big AA bowl :(

I agree, he really loved it here and his teammates, sad to see it not workout. But, he needs to do what he need to do, I hope for nothing but the best.

I agree RB..

He just didn't fit in with what we do on offense. Nobody is to blame. Just saying that in our offense he had to develop into a pure wide receiver to make any impact. Flash was always more of a hybrid RB/WR who was going to work better in an offense like Florida or Oregon's.

Exactly. I remember when he committed thinking that it was an amazing get for the Bucks because those types of players don't usually commit to us. I'd have loved to see JT figure out how to use him, but alas...it's just not what the Bucks do. I guess JT thought he could just turn him into a WR and that was that.

Well, anyway, best of luck to Flash wherever he ends up. I think he could be a dynamic player in the right offense.

Looking back maybe he should have been brought in to play CB..

Also, makes you wonder what will happen to Corey Brown from this yrs class. The guy he's drawn a ton of comparisons to is Flash Thomas. Maybe he should play CB.
