'07 FL WR Deonte Thompson (Florida signee)
'07 FL WR Deonte Thompson
Belle Glade (FL) Glades Central Height: 6-foot-0 Weight: 180 pounds 40-yard dash: 4.4 seconds GPA: 3.0 Scout Profile Same HS as Santonio Holmes and Albert Dukes. Good one to keep an eye on. Considered by many to be the fastest football prospect regardless of class. Ran three straight 4.28 forty times at the Scout.com Jacksonville Combine on Sunday April 17, 2005. Apparently ran a 10.38 wind aided 100m. Last edited by osugrad21; 10-11-2006 at 08:38 PM. |

It's way too early to get hung up on anything, but do you know anything about his childhood favorites or where he might be looking as of now?

I have heard rumors that he likes Florida but they are just that, rumors. Until I hear it from him I won't consider him a UF fan. It is way too early to think about him but he is just a name to pay attention to in the future.

Lets hope Santonio and Albert help us land this kid- not only is he from the same hs, but they play the same position, so I'd think there has to be some type of relationship b/w those kids.

Only, when Deonte starts his visits, Santonio will probably be playing in the NFL, so I am not sure if they will be in contact. Though, Mr. Dukes will still be there, probably dominating the Big 10.

If santonio is in the pros, stopping by the sidelines as a pro star certainly won't hurt our chances when/if Deonte visits. Kind of like how Michigan will probably bring back Edwards when they try to land Hornsby later this year.

Deonte recently ran a 10.56 in the 100 meters in the State Finals.
Look at Event 18-Boys 100 meter dash http://www.fhsaa.org/track/state/2_results.asp |

Rivals$
From Rivals Top100: The schools he is looking at right now are Florida, Ohio State, Miami, Florida State, Alabama, Auburn and West Virginia. Already has offers from Florida, Miami, West Virginia and Auburn as a wide receiver. Prefers wide receiver but would play DB. Talks about being a Florida fan and grew up watching Fred Taylor play there. Also talks about Ohio State. Says he is close with Albert Dukes, who are cousins, and knonws a little about Santonio Holmes. Says there is a little mini pipeline going to tOSU. |

Fred Taylor is from the same school as well. If he grew up an UF fan it might be hard to pull him away from UF because all 6 of the top 6 UF WRs(Chad Jackson, Andre Caldwell, Dallas Baker, Jemalle Cornelius, Gavin Dickey, Kenneth Tookes) will leave by the time he gets to UF, so it'll be a pretty favorable depth chart he'll be looking at.

While this is true they are in on some big WR's this year like Jammere Holland, Vidal Hazelton, ect. I'm sure there are more and G8erBait could tell us who all will be around most likely.
