Jai'Den Thomas averaged 7 yards per carry last season, ran for 1,000 yards, and scored 12 touchdowns. Only five running backs in the entire country who carried the ball 100+ times matched that yards-per-carry number. So why isn't anyone talking about him? In this video, I break down exactly what makes the UNLV running back such an exciting player: the lateral agility and vision at the line of scrimmage that sets up everything else, the open-field elusiveness that makes him impossible to get an angle on in the second level, and the straight-line acceleration that turns good runs into home runs. I also cover the one thing Jai'Den Thomas needs to clean up in 2026 — finding the balance between patience and decisiveness at the line of scrimmage — and why fixing it could push him into the national conversation. Remember, a Mountain West running back finished second in the Heisman not too long ago. 00:00 Introduction 00:25 Line of Scrimmage 1:22 Second Level 3:20 Area for Improvement 4:15 Wrap-Up Know an under-the-radar college football player I should cover?
