I hope he does. It would be awesome to see another Thomas out on the field.

I would love it. I hope he gets the opportunity to not just be on the team, but to vie for at least a little playing time. Regardless, I think he would be shown much love and would be hugely popular with the fans.

He would be eligible for the Bryant Scholarship.
Get some time to develop, that would be nice.

Maybe he'll "walk on" like Rashad did.

DT didn't play for Coach Bryant so Derrion doesn't qualify unfortunately.
Although it looks like he would not be on a Bryant Scholarship, doesn't a player who walks on as a Bryant Scholarship count against your 85 scholarship limit once he plays?
