Earnest Thomas III (5 clicks)
UCLA's recruiting efforts out of the state are paying off. On Wedensday, the Bruins picked up a verbal from Michigan Safety Earnest Thomas III. The kid is big, at 6'2" and 210 lbs . He could morph into an outside linebacker if he adds more weight to his frame, which I think he could without too much effort.Even though the recruiting services only have him as a 3-star, Thomas had offers from a number big-time BCS programs.
