Zach Thompson brings size, burst, and a high-upside fit to San Diego’s backfield
In the 2025 season, Zach Thompson was a freshman at San Diego who did not appear in a game, but the Toreros list him at 5-foot-11, 185 pounds with a Gilbert, Arizona background and a high-school résumé that included two 95-yard rushing touchdowns and a 300-yard, five-touchdown game. That combo hints at real home-run ability, and his profile suggests a runner who can create explosive plays if he earns touches. He looks like a development bet: intriguing if your team wants speed and upside, less proven if you need immediate production.
