That’s intriguing! Michael Thomas III’s connection to Mohamed Sanu adds an interesting dimension to his commitment to Rutgers. Mohamed Sanu is a notable figure in Rutgers football history, having played under head coach Greg Schiano during his first tenure with the Scarlet Knights. Sanu went on to have a successful NFL career after his time at Rutgers.
Thomas’ relationship with Sanu suggests a potential mentorship or influence that could have played a role in his decision to commit to Rutgers. This kind of personal connection and mentorship from former players can often be significant in recruiting, as it provides recruits with insights into the program and its culture from someone they trust and respect.
It will be exciting to see how Thomas develops under Rutgers’ coaching staff and potentially follows in the footsteps of Mohamed Sanu as a standout wide receiver for the Scarlet Knights.
