Lawton MacArthur cornerback Michael Thomas (6-foot-1, 195 pounds) is No. 11 on The Oklahoman‘s Super 30 and has committed to play in college at Tulsa.

He was in Oklahoma City on Thursday for a scrimmage at Bishop McGuinness, but we didn’t see much of his coverage skill. The Irish didn’t throw his way much, but Thomas created plenty of his own action with his physicality.

Thomas knocked Irish receivers around, which is what Lawton MacArthur coach Brett Manning said Thomas is best at.

Most receivers can’t really handle him when it comes to blocking. It’s going to take a really special receiver that’s really physically mature to handle him.”
