The Ashbury Park Press features UMass recruit Tyler Thompson in this article dated today. (fixed link)

I've blogged about Thompson before.

Quote from the article:

"So after rushing for 1,478 yards as a sophomore, Thompson returned as a senior to rush for 1,572 yards and 21 TDs, as well as catching 17 passes for 286 yards and two TDs. He finished his career with 4,866 yards rushing and 52 TDs."

This article from 2015 talks about Thompson's rehab after his severe injury in his sophomore year.

This article reports Thompson chose UMass over offers from UConn, BC, Old Dominion, Syracuse and Virginia.
