Sad News For Oklahoma Sooners Star Player Including Michael Hawkins Jr For A….

Not many around Elijah Thomas have accomplished what he’s set to accomplish. Each day, he gets closer to realizing a dream of playing college football, something he doesn’t take for granted.

“It feels really good, knowing that I’m going to be the first out of my school, my family, getting to do this,” Thomas said. “The journey has been amazing, just trying to be the best that I can be, my support circle has been awesome. They’ve always been there for me, through the ups and downs.

Thomas has put in plenty of effort to get to this point, emerging as one of the better receiver prospects in the region. This was reinforced when Thomas was named the Wide Receiver MVP at Under Armour-Dallas.

“I feel pretty great,” Thomas said. “They picked me as one of the best in the country, competed against some of the best in the country, but it’ll be good to take this into school ball and continue to do what I can do.”

“I just take everything my coaches tell me along with me,” Thomas added. “They come out, work with me even when they don’t have to, it’s helped me a lot.”

Thomas feels this is still part of a greater process. He continues to work on becoming the talent he feels he can be.

“I’m proud of my aggressiveness and my hand-eye coordination,” Thomas said. “I feel like I’m good at catching the ball… Off that, been working on routes. My steps, muscle memory, things like that.”
