Daniel Thomas brings home-run speed, workhorse volume, and proven big-play juice for UVA Wise
In the 2025 season, Daniel Thomas flashed legit star power for Virginia-Wise, piling up 815 rushing yards and 8 touchdowns despite an injury-shortened year, including a program-record 256-yard explosion against Catawba and second-team All-SAC honors. He’s the kind of back who can carry a game when the Cavaliers need toughness and tempo, and his 5.6 yards per carry plus 136.2 rushing yards per game showed real efficiency. If you want a physical, high-motor runner with proven upside and a “give me the ball again” mindset, Thomas is absolutely worth your attention.
