re: Current Draftable LSU DBs Pre-Combine Training

I have a friend that coached him (Dwayne Thomas) for a year or 2. IIRC, it was just 1.

Anyways, he played football at a smaller, now FBS school (1-A when he played). He said he ran a 4.5-4.55 himself when he played at Safety back in the day and that DT was faster than him.

Where that stacks up for DT, I don't know. Whether DT even ran that fast or if my friend was just excited for DT and just pumping his player up, I don't know. Just passing along what he told me.

I hope for Thomas' sake it is true and he runs fast and shoots up draft boards. I think he can ball and has a much higher ceiling than a lot of others that may be in his current draft range.

I think he can be a late bloomer like someone as recent as Jalen Collins.
