Posted by Bho I would make some sort of a-hole comment after you called Brittany Griner a guy, but I have more class than you. Hopefully they find this guy safe.


Griner is a dude!

That being said, is he a starter?

Yes, he's made the starting lineup as a true freshman.

REC: 30
YARDS: 339
AVG: 11.3
TD: 1

T&P.

I hate to be 'that guy' but why does it matter of he's a starter? Also, the Brittany Griner stuff is irrelevant

Something came up for him to take off on a Monday. My first guess would be a female problem in Dallas. Second thought was he made a quick trip home and ended up in the wrong place at the wrong time around the wrong people.

My hope is he got overwhelmed with either personal or school issues and is with a friend/family member working through things.

The longer it goes the more alarming it gets. With publicity maybe someone comes forward to at least let the school and family know he's OK.

Couldn't agree more. I don't care if he is a water boy or JFF. He is an Aggie.

Things like this put a horrible pit in my stomach. Many many prayers for him that he is safe, and thoughts and prayers to his family while they wait. I so hope it turns out alright.

Agreed. Normally I'd be excited about a 4-star safety committing, but right now I just don't care.

I did not take it as though it mattered. Now that this situation is brought to the board's attention,the board has expressed the reasonable concern and hopes that he will be found and okay.

The question was more along the lines of learning a bit more about him.

Might he have been disgruntled by being buried on the depth chart and walked off of the team?

Had he been a starter but lost his position (same idea)


so, it was not as if he mattered more if he played. It was "could he have gotten disheartened and quit the team in a snit" Obviously, we would all rather THAT than he be in danger

Thomas Johnson is a 4-star recruit who decommitted from Texas on signing day. He is A&M's 3rd leading receiver and has started at least 2 games this year. He had 1 (long) TD catch against La. Tech and has had several key plays for first downs throughout the season.

There's nothing to be "disgruntled" about when you aren't the starter over 3 seniors and Mike Evans. Assuming that he is found and nothing bad happens, he is almost a lock to start next season.

I'm hopeful that is what it is, he is young maybe it was gf problems back home, or ran off with some girl.

Really sucks for aTm, I bet CS was riding high since Saturday sucks for something like this to break up the party.

Hope he is found and safe.
