Very very happy about this. We needed this position badly, and I know we hear this about seemingly every Buff commit, but this guy is a legit under the radar prospect. One of the top players in Texas.

Welcome, Dustin!!!!

I'd heard his shooting was better than most thought, but 48%? From 3? How big of a sample size are we looking at there Yung?

seriously. what kind of league? 14 Rebounds per game? :wtf:

“Coach Pri started recruiting me and then eventually Boyle called me,” Thomas said. “Pri was always texting with me and I talked to Boyle too. I love his personality.”

Good stuff YgC. Also, good move by Tad in moving Pri to the recruiting trail. Allsome!

Kind of typical of the kind of guy Tad goes after. Players who are not finished products but rather developing with very high ceilings. This guy could be a star, at worst he should be a solid all-around player who can contribute to a winning program.
 
I guess these stats would explain why he's in the Texas Top 10! Thanks for the clarification YngC. All I can say is Wow!!!

Welcome Dustin and Go Buffs!!!
 
Well, it's been said by several others already, but this kid sounds like an absolute steal. Once some video of him gets out there, I wouldn't be surprised at all if he pushes for a spot in the top-100 when it's all said and done.

If he gets evaluated as a Top 10 from Texas (as it seems he might), he's definitely 150 and maybe 100 nationally.
 
From the Rivals article that Snow linked above:

"Today is the day in 2006 my sister passed away. That is why I wear No. 13, that is how old she was when she passed away from a rare blood disease," Thomas said. "I just felt like it was a way to honor her. She is the reason I play the game. So to make my commitment to Colorado today was something I wanted to do."
