Just talked with Thomas Lucas. Said he told Diaco after the bowl game he’d be leaving. Loved school, coaches but wanted more PT #UConn

Lucas didn’t know where he’d be transferring to, but said his decision should come in a few days. Story with quotes going up now. #UConn

>>“The coaches are great,” he said. “I never really had a problem with them. It was just I had a lack of playing time. I wasn’t getting the exposure that I thought I should have. Great coaching staff…loved the team, the players on the team. We all bonded together. They’ll do great for the next couple of years.”

Lucas did not know where he would be transferring. He said he would sit down with his parents and find a school that suits him best.

Lucas said he told coach Bob Diaco of his departure after the team’s 16-10 loss to Marshall at the St. Petersburg Bowl.

“We kind of had like a family talk,” Lucas said. “The coaches…I learned a lot from them. They turned me into the gentleman that I am now. I realize that college is a business, especially D-I football at that level. It’s a business. I just took it for what it is and hopefully I find a school that benefits me.”<<
