Saw David Drew Tweeted the following:

@Drew_on_WMU: Hearing that former #Rutgers sophomore DB Ian Thomas will transfer into #WMUFootball program & will be eligible next season.

Rutgers owed us from the DB we just gave them 16 months ago. Player to be named later...

Looks like he was recruited as a WR. Three star ranked... wonder if he didn't want to play DB at Rutgers. Word was he wasn't fitting in well and left the program multiple times due to "home sickness"... Interesting.

And will you look at that - DD is able to get a scoop. Good job DD!

His offer list out of high school was really impressive. Bring him in and let him take the year to compete and adjust.

He was a four star according to 247 sports. I read a lot of Rutgers comments about the kid. Most seemed to think he could play, many expecting him to start at CB this year, but there is some red flags. Kid left the program, Rutgers took him back, and now he has left again. Obviously, Fleck has talked to the kid so I imagine he has at least convinced PJ he is committed to playing football.

I'm a bit skeptical.

With both the guys he brought in late will hopefully be plug in and play starters after we lose 3 after this year. (This guy and that stone guy)

Agree with this a lot.
