East Lee County DL Eric Thomas using size to his advantage

Standing at 6'5" and over 300 pounds, East Lee County junior defensive lineman Eric Thomas uses his size to his advantage.

When you’re looking at the East Lee County defensive huddle, it’s impossible to miss No. 99 defensive lineman Eric Thomas.
“I’m 6’5″ 310,” Thomas said.

Thomas, who’s a junior, has always been the tallest kid in school. Right now, he rocks a size 20 shoe! He knows what his size brings.

Must be something in the Florida water - 6-5 305 and a HS junior? Young man goes through the OL like a hot knife through butter. Impressive film.

Eric,

[OttosDad]

No inside info but just a gut feeling that this kid, Elijah Crawford, and Gillians are ours. Not to mention the WR out of Georgia who cancelled his NC St visit. Fran hasn’t gotten a commit in the class of 25 in a while. I’m feigning

 

[cusefan88]

This guy is the 6-4/320lbs DT that we've been unable to get with regularity in the past. Already has requisite size.

[CbusCuse]

Massive, strong DT with good ability to shed and is fairly agile for his size. Would love to get this guy. DT's like this make it a lot easier on the rest of the defense. It all starts with them.

Thomas, listed at 6-5, 325 pounds, chose the Orange over Georgia, Georgia Tech, Kentucky, Missouri, Ole Miss, South Carolina USF and others. He took officials to Syracuse, Marshall and South Carolina before making his decision. Thomas put SU on top after his trip to Central New York and other schools were unable to surpass the Orange.
