The stats show Thompson  had limited playing time to play. In this era of college football the players can find opportunities to play outside of the elite college teams.  This might be the perfect landing spot for Thompson in a league such as American Athletic conference to show off his Air Raid  skill set. Sumrall may be known for his defense, but needs a QB he can trust to keep up with offenses like Memphis, UTSA, and FAU on Saturdays.

He won numerous awards that season, including the All-American Bowl Offensive Player of the Year, Maxwell Football Club Offensive Player of the Year, Ed Doherty Award and was the Arizona Gatorade Football Player of the Year.

Exciting day for the Wave. I expect Thompson to come in and compete for the starting job, and be ready to accept the responsibility of leading this team in 2024.
