I don't get the lack of offer to Thomas either. Add to everything that Duane said the fact that Dymonte and Brionte are related and want to go to the same school. Oh, and last thing.....He is now favoring TSUN.

A couple of questions for you Duane, 1) Is Green better than Thomas and is the fact that Green has an offer the reason Thomas doesn't? 2) Do you think Thomas and Timmons get offered as athletes/safeties? 3) Totally unrelated to the first two, what is your top 5 positions of need next year for our Buckeyes? Mine are OT, LB, DE, WR, & CB in that order.

I would give a slight advantage to Green because I think he is a more natural back. I think Thomas may be like Timmons, and Mike Doss before him who was a 1600 yard rusher as a senior, in the fact that he is a great athlete playing running back. He is so good simply because he is the best athlete on the field.
I think Thomas does. I would wait on Timmons. As impressive as he is most of his film is as a running back, and I am not really impressed with the Springfield Central Catholic schedule. I would like to see him in camp first.
Let me think about your third question.

The ONLY back that is a must get is Green out of Virginia. This kid is the real deal. Va. Tech is putting the full court press on him. Kid is not only a stud but was responsible for us even getting a shot at Curtis Grant. He is the MUST GET!

I would love to see Thomas in scarlet and grey. I think he would be a safety and possibly a return guy. He is great in the open field.
