UTEP LB Victor Thomas is a young, physical defender with upside
Victor Thomas enters the conversation as a freshman linebacker for UTEP (2024 roster listed him at 6-foot-1, 220 pounds), which usually means upside is the headline before the stat sheet catches up. He does not yet have published UTEP season statistics, so the appeal is more about projection: a sturdy build, developmental runway, and the kind of linebacker frame that can grow into an impact role if his processing and consistency come along. If you need an immediate star, he is not there yet; if you want an athletic, moldable LB with long-term value, he is worth watching.
