Could see him on offense or defense for us. Dymonte is just a player and the name freak of nature fits well

I really hope to get his speed on defense. Our safety play really the entire 2000's and much of the 90s was atrocious. Getting kids like him and Jarrod Wilson in every class back to back to back to back will fix that in no time.

I really like his play. His build is weird, seems top-heavy. Not bad, just different.

Next Charles Woodson if he gets some time on offense. Ballhawking safety and could see some time at WR with that openfield athleticism and shiftiness.

Very impressive, good thing Wilson is a ball-hawk because Dymonte is a hard hitter.

Dymonte is skinny in the legs but wrestles at 185lbs and is really good. Sounds like he is plenty strong for his frame.

Like the college version of having Ed Reed and Antoine Bethea in the secondary

Damn straight. I've watched Bethea for the last couple years and he lets interceptions slap off his chest but he lays the lumber

That he does. I'd prefer Bob Sanders, but he's as durable as an egg...

I would kill for a safety that plays like Ryan Clark of the Steelers. I love watching him play.

Let's not go too crazy over the kid........
He's still a Junior in high school, and has never played primarily on the defensive side of the ball yet.

I'm not sure if this is correct.
I recall someone saying that Thomas has amassed over 100 tackles this season from the safety position. I can't confirm this but I'm hoping that someone in the know can either confirm or deny it so I thought I'd pass it along.

Anyways, I just rewatched the highlight vid and I hope Coach Hoke gives Thomas the opportunity to play as a RB if Thomas wants it.
If Thomas does play in 2 (or 3) phases of the game and excels, then he will have a chance to follow in Howard's/Woodson's footsteps.

Thomas played S that was in the box like a LB. He has played a ton of defense. He has had to share carries on O with Alden Hill who is going to Tenn.
