thomas has gone juco
Chipola Junior College
Seems like it is pretty much a juco sports factory
From Wikipedia:
while the men's basketball program was once home to Auburn standout Chris Porter, Oklahoma State player Mario Boggan, Missouri's Stefhon Hannah, and Indiana's JaMarcus Ellis and DeAndre Thomas.
The men's basketball program has won more state basketball championships under one coach (7 for Milton H. Johnson) and in total (9) than any other junior-college basketball program in Florida, and in the 2003-04 and 2004-05 seasons finished fifth and third in the nation, respectively, and in 2005 received its first-ever No. 1 national ranking.

If anybody is wondering how he ever got admitted to a juco while he is a HS junior (which is probably everybody) i found this.
The High School Dual Enrollment and Early Admission Program, authorized under Florida Statute 1007.27, is a cooperative effort with Chipola College and Calhoun, Holmes, Jackson, Liberty, and Washington school districts and select private schools to provide enhanced learning opportunities for qualified high school students through effective use of college programs and resources.* The program allows qualified high school students the opportunity to enroll free of charge in college courses to earn both college credit and credit toward high school graduation.
A couple of the requirements he probaby got around b/c he is good at basketball b/c as I see no other way.
Be enrolled in a public high school*located within the college’s five county district. (his last HS was in conn., this school is in FL)
Have written approval of the high school principal. (he presumably isn't enrolled in a hs so getting a letter from the principal could be tough)
There are also a bunch of academic requirements that I have a hard time believing he could possibly meet gong to 4 HS's.

This only makes sense, this whole enrolling in a JUCO thing under what appears to be a strange provision is hardly going to make him qualify for "real" college.
Beyond the Arc has a nice article on Thomas today. Confirming Goose's comments about him likely declaring for the 2013 draft.

Any new news on this guy?
correcto says rivals. Interesting.
Very interesting. To get into Xavier he must have scored well on the Ivan Drago punch power meter.

How is his right jab and left cross?
Didn't look like it was likely for CU to get him, despite their being the comment in the Daily Camera about his close ties to Billups.
Think he's probably one and done anyways, so might not be the type of player Boyle is going after. Hope the kid does well in Xavier.

I hope he does well at Xavier. Good luck Chris.
I think Kevin Durrant went to something like 7 different high schools, incluing prep schools, and he came out alright. Good luck, Chris.
This is a confusing ass thread.
This is a confusing ass recruitment.
Now going to Marshall.
