At some point during the week Joshua Thomas will slide up next starting running back Mike Warren. The comment never changes.
Don’t get tackled short of the goal line.
Thomas doesn’t need to tell Warren anything else. They both know what happens next.
“If you do, I am coming in for a 2-yard touchdown,” Thomas said.
Meet Iowa State’s touchdown vulture. Thomas isn’t just enjoying his duties as the Cyclones’ short yardage and goal line running back, he’s making it his home.
“It’s a great role for me,” Thomas said.
He’s built for the position.
