Ronald Thompson?

I see where he ran for 362 yards the other night against West. I've searched the recruiting data bases & can't find anything about the kid.

Does anybody know anything?

Based on the extremely limited amount of info I have, I'd have to say this is likely.

Re: Ronald Thompson?

Have heard he's not the brightest kid.

Very good RB. Not sure Iowa would even have a spot for him there, though. We sit very well with at least 3 much higher rated RBs. If you count Malloy's scholly, there just won't be any room.

Re: Ronald Thompson?

The next week Thompson goes for 234 yards on 23 carries against Xavier. Last night, he burns Kennedy for another 238 yards on 29 attempts.

Yet, apparently, he has no offers. His grades & test scores must be atrocious. What a shame!

Grades aside, Paki O'Meara put up better numbers his Jr and Sr years and high school, only difference is those Washington teams werent even playoff teams.

Any kid that gets caught smoking weed in his HS parking lot a few days before the state championship game might not be someone that has the best judgement.

Fail.

At no time did Paki run for over 1,000 yards in 5 games.

Complete BS.

There is no bs to it, he opened his senior season with a school record 349 rushing yards. Your trying to tell me he couldnt average 160 yards a game the next 4? He was the entire offense on that team.

This could definitely be part of his problem. The KGYM radio guys were discussing if the outcome of the 4A Championship Game would have been different last season, if Thompson would have played.

Got to see the game live. Thompson and City High's offense was bottled up in the 1st half, only leading 6-0. Kennedy's defense was up to the task. City High broke it open in the 3rd quarter with TD runs of 39 and 36 yards by Thompson.

I want to see documentation, with yardage numbers and opponents, or else you're completely full of S***.
