Last Friday Coach Meyer and his staff hosted some of the top recruits in the country for Friday Night Lights. None of our writers were able to attend the event so we couldn’t put together a detailed look at what went on. So we did the next thing possible interviewed several of the top recruits who were there to get their point of view on the event and what they thought about it. Adonis Thomas is one of those guys the 6’4″ 210 lbs LBer from Lawrenceville, Georgia and teammate of current OSU commit Trey Johnson came to the event and showed why he is one of the top recruits in 2015. He has offers already ftom Tenn, South Carolina, and Georgia Tech. Adonis may not have the high ranking of other players yet but that is coming you can see it in how he performed.
Bill Greene of Scout had this to say about the young Sophomore….
Hands down 2015 Adonis Thomas is the best looking kid at OSU camp.
