Jeff Thomas, the electrifying former Miami Hurricanes receiver who was dismissed from the team Thanksgiving week, has conveyed interest to the University of Miami in returning to the school, two sources said Saturday.
Coach Manny Diaz will decide whether Thomas will return, and it’s unclear what that decision will be.
One player on last year’s team said he was left with the impression that Thomas will return to the team. But it’s unknown if Diaz has given authorization for that.
It is believed Thomas had no legal or other issues that would preclude him from returning if UM chooses to bring him back.
