RELATED: 2016 JUCO DT Mychealon Thomas Commits to Texas Tech
Scouting Report: Thomas was a 3-star defensive tackle coming out of Skyline, but he couldn’t qualify, so he off to the great state of Kansas where the level of JUCO play is top-notch. Unfortunately, we don’t really get to see any of Thomas’ JUCO film, just from his senior year of high school. Thomas needs to work on that baby deer skin, or getting rid of it. Seems like he’s carrying weight that isn’t beneficial and causing him to lose some quickness. There’s a good athlete there, but not as good as he could be right now. The best thing is that he doesn’t get pushed around. At all. So, despite being slow off the snap, he’s really strong and he does a good job of using his hands
