Noel Thomas

[Palatine]

Eh. He's alright. OT but I have a feeling that we're going to be reading about Beals transferring in the offseason. He's never involved in the offense and I was really impressed with him in the first half of his freshman campaign. So bizarre. He definitely has skill, but Diaco is pushing him out the door.

The plays for Beals are eaten up by QB sneaks.

My Norwalk guy!

Met his Dad at a BBQ this summer really cool dude as well.

Oh god, how much would you pay to have Edsall back and to actually win games?

Evidently you don't know TDH.

He would prefer a four win season if we put up 400 passing yards a game to what we did in 2010.

Edsall jokes are funny but he was better than than this clown.

You know I'm missing him big time.

 

[MilliniumPrince]

Marcus Easley? He did more, but otherwise agree about Thomas. Needs a better QB.

I think Geremy Davis was better than both, but it is a very close race.

When I think of Davis or Thomas, I think hands.

Agreed.

When I think of Davis or Thomas, I think what could have been if they had a great QB and an OC/HC with some swagger and balls.

I pray for the day our offense is so explosive that we never see a 4th member on this list.

I agree that Davis had great hands. Probably the best in program history.

But Noel has a drop almost every game. And he doesn't always execute the tough catch. Good hands not great hands.

I'll always remember Geremy Davis going up the sideline against Michigan and making a diving catch in the endzone that left me floored. It got called back because of a penalty at the LOS, but man that was a heck of a catch

You could not be more wrong. He has a very few drops and you must have been getting a beer every time he makes those acrobatic catches. If he can get his hands on the ball he usually catches it. He's human and dropped a few but very few catchable balls are dropped by Thomas.

eh he has good hands but not sure hands. He usually has a bad drop or two every game.

I will add this that Noel Thomas will end up being the highest draft pick at wide receiver at UConn ever.
