North Texas’s all-time rushing machine still sets the bar
Jamario Thomas’s North Texas profile is defined by instant-impact, game-breaking rushing: he finished with 3,496 career rushing yards and 27 touchdowns, ranking second in school history, and in 2004 he led the country with 180 rushing yards per game while piling up 1,801 yards and 17 scores. The big differentiator is his home-run ability and volume-driven toughness—he delivered six 200-yard games as a freshman, a rare burst that screams feature-back upside. If you want a back who can tilt a game with one carry and carry a heavy workload, he fits.
