When Rodney Thomas was at Texas A&M in 1994, he was the recipient of the Aggie Heart Award. The award, voted on by teammates, is presented to a senior who completed his eligibility and shows effort, desire, determination, competitiveness, leadership, and courage. The award is the highest honor for an A&M senior player.

According to Sports Illustrated, when Thomas was a student at Texas A&M, there was a malfunction in a vending machine in the athletic dorms. Because of the malfunction, cans of soda were dispensed without cash being inserted into the machine. Thomas, hardly made of money, took his own change and replaced all the money for the drinks that had been taken.
