Rendering a verdict on Texas A&M football 2023 portal entries: Colton Thomasson

One of the most outspoken members of Texas A&M's 2023 class, Thomasson has nothing if not the requisite size to play offensive line. The rest of his game needed some development, though, and when the new staff came in, it began to seem as though he wasn't quite what they were looking for in an OL.

An in-state kid, he stayed close to home by heading out to Baylor. It looks like he was a backup this year in Waco. Thomasson is still just a redshirt freshman, though, so he's currently on track at this point to contribute going forward.

Verdict: TBD
