De'Anthony Thomas 2012 Highlights

All of De'Anthony's best plays from the 2012 season including the 2013 Fiesta Bowl. One of the most dynamic and electric players in all of college football.

[@TheExtra40414]

i really miss your highlight videos of every duck game. Thanks for all your hard work.

[@Gixxer7Kawi]

He's only a junior! This guy still has time to get bigger and faster for the NFL! His cuts are CRAZYY

[@TTVBunnyDougie]

An absolutely exceptional human being. Such talent.

[@kingnas775]

Yes!! Been looking forward to this video, must have watched his '11 highlights video 30 times. Thanks Mike!

[@joziahjesse3912]

Instablaster

[@pendleton123]

Great to see you back Mike!!

[@CPAClass2010]

That Kansas St fan's reaction to the return is timeless. Epic moustache-glasses combo.

[@jordylee1034]

i am excited to see him in the next level

[@UGAfan85]

A lot of the time people have great angles. He's just so fast and quick. My gosh

[@GhettoWook]

Been waiting for this video since football seasoned started

[@Killahpg777]

yes Indeed thanks Mike! This has me excited for next year!

[@2Shainzz]

his sprinting technique is perfect

[@Wolfy2821]

I loved how pumped those four linemen got when they recovered the fumble

[@harlemkiid149]

DAT is a role model for all the youngsters particularly in LA. He's successfully made it out of the hood/Crenshaw High and he has taken advantage of his free education and his athletic opportunities in Eugene. Good for him bcuz he's played with so many talented guys that had NCAA looks particularly from Crenshaw High but those guys were caught up in the street life/gangs/females etc and DAT managed to make it out and he's handling his business. Really Proud of DAT

[@jcchrissmith0007]

Great video AGAIN Madmike. Thanks so much....GO DUCKS

[@jtking1009]

My fav football player

[@sammybrown7185]

De'Anthony is awesome

[@Arimus66]

Awesome video mike!

[@dreadrollin]

great video!!!!

[@johnvaughn7131]

Thanks for your work Mike, definitely makes it easier to follow the ball on the read option.De'Anthony has a confirmed time of 4.38 in the 40 yard dash, I believe. Goodwin at 4.34?

[@LayzieinFlesh]

Great Vid.

[@Vincejg84]

Thomas is a straight up Beast

[@madisoninglett6573]

He is awesome

[@iLiKeCeRe]

when de'anthony gets to the nfl draft, im betting he'll be able to pick any team he wants with the speed and breaking tackle skills he has

[@madmike1951]

Thanks!

[@madmike1951]

No, just wildly diverging tastes... (and from years of experience with highlight videos...I know what folks like) GO DUCKS!

[@8MoneyIzmyMission8]

This dude is already very very good. He could be an every down back in the NFL. He has the fastest juke I have ever seen. Just shake, shake, and he's got somebody coming out their shoes. He has better change of direction than Reggie Bush when he was in college and that's saying a great deal. If he filled out like you said he'd be unstoppable. LSU has a RB/WR coming in that's 5'10 180 and runs a 4.32 (track timed) who also played on D in high school. I'm looking for him to be DAT 2.0

[@xNIKEGOLFx]

I love how he finishes his runs at 100% thru the goaline. SWAG.

[@hokala3]

One of my favorite Oregon performances all year was DT in the Civil War.

[@madmike1951]

Very welcome...

[@Thero559]

He is a underestimated rb .. Others rb aren't universal like him ..

[@joemorifrancis7594]

That's my boy right there speed kills oh killer

[@TheCJSChannel]

To people who say he goes down every time he gets touched, I have watched every oregon game since he came to the team and have never seen him take a big hit. It is because he is quick enough to force an arm tackle that he will most likely break. He is ever going to truck anyone but who says he ever needs to.

[@lockdown2321]

Underrated

[@OvSpP]

Bullets are jealous of how fast this guy travels!!!!

[@ansenkater8852]

Kid is doing work putting on muscle this offseason. This is just a preview of what's to come.

[@melchezadeklong]

Tavon Austin and De'Anthony Thomas are the quickest in football !

[@XXkirboeXX]

I love seeing CJ run he's smooth af. CJ rarely runs at full speed (rarely needs to) so it's hard to tell.

[@MrBlacknosugar]

Yes indeed.

[@55KLewis]

I keep forgetting this man is only a junior this coming year can't wait #TeamDucks

[@madmike1951]

My pleasure John...thanks for the nice comment... GO DUCKS!

[@healthyandyoung]

i'll be honest. I have jumped on the oregon bandwagon. How could you not root for these guys? its the funnest team to watch by far. I just hope they dont change their schemes without chip kelly

[@RJBuildsPcs]

I cannot imagine which NFL team snatches this guy up man, too good of a player lol.

[@XxM1KeXxTYSONXx]

Best athlete in the country, maybe even the world

[@Umatilla23]

Punt return vs CO was bad azz!

[@bacmaj]

Thanks for the video, and extra thanks for not setting it to some abysmal rap song.

[@calvinmichael1281]

A huge shot

[@8MoneyIzmyMission8]

That was before he came into the league. Wear and tear will lower your speed after a while at the RB position. Hell Trindon Holliday ran an unofficial 4.21 a couple years ago.

[@MCxCoronax]

I see this guy being the league's successor to Darren Sproles. Diminutive stature but fast and powerful. He's going to make an offensive coordinator very happy.

[@AISK9]

After watching both Tavon Austin and De'Anthony Thomas, I believe that Austin is more elusive while Thomas is faster. However, both players are amazing and are a whole lot of fun to watch!

[@madmike1951]

I have a great following of Duck football fan subscribers, been doing this for quite awhile and make straight forward, no-nonsense videos with no music... those are the main reasons I am guessing... GO DUCKS!

[@TheBookOfKenny]

That mans face at 10:54 says it all about how opponents feel when facing this man.

[@Keandrehollis]

he snappin

[@lalodub]

When Snoop Dog gives you the nickname Black Mamba, your nickname is Black Mamba.

[@madmike1951]

Considering the 2011 version is at 633k I would agree... GO DUCKS!

[@DealerCamel]

Damn, that was ridiculous.

[@DTWM2]

How about that kick off return... I was at the game... and the atmosphere in the duck section was electric

[@madmike1951]

Thanks pendleton123... GO DUCKS!

[@danmarino420]

Please come to the Charlottle Bobcats WE NEED YOU!!!

[@braindamagedhorse123]

He goes down if somebody touches him. Proof is all of those 3 highlights against Stanford, the only team in the PAC with a legit defense.

[@kylecox5501]

This guy and tavon austin are both my role models

[@lilvinnyfufu]

OU jersey's were on point last year.

[@xavierdegrate4191]

he is cold

[@jiggy7928]

Just imagine if DeAnthony Thomas and Tavon Austin on the same NFL Team...once DeAnthony Thomas goes into the NFL Draft (most likely next year)...every corner and safety would be on their toes at all times..that would be something!!!

[@317MaseX]

i hope he plays for the colts next year!!!

[@OregonFB6]

I see where you are coming from that is very real possibility that he runs a 4.31, but i think is acceleration is what will put him over the top.

[@calvinmichael1281]

sanddollarscholar, he WILL make the NFL. Even though he's small.

[@SamKNC15]

5:09 i was amazed when i saw that live

[@MrSuperdelicous]

this videos gunna get 250k views easy

[@RJBuildsPcs]

This guy is Chris Johnson, Deason Jackson, and Devin Hester all in one person lol

[@Pilotdave96]

@pixelsoul @levi moniz it's probably cause of the fast paced offense organ ran and he's trying to get back to the huddle as quick as possible

[@madmike1951]

Miss doing them for everyone...wish the Pac-12 would just ease up for all the Duck fans out there... GO DUCKS!

[@shawkimoore875]

He is the RB/WR in the country

[@conormcdermott2718]

Look at that speed!

[@nakearidders2758]

deanthony thomas is a very gifted individual and all football fans should look forward to seeing him play in the future go ducks

[@pseudonym3640]

Have you ever heard of DeSean Jackson or Darren Sproles or Chris Johnson?

[@themane20101]

How do u get so many views on your videos?

[@CoriifromThe713]

Best team in America

[@kohlanderson7276]

5:10 is a change of direction clinic

[@belarushok]

6:40 greats defender!!!

[@dajhaew7835]

De anthony Thomas is so fast I can't even see him running

[@dewayneshorter1270]

it was tavon austin doing dat in college but now de athony thomas has a chance to win the heisman trophy.go ducks and and have a good season.

[@MrAnthonya20]

They are both best at their positions. But Thomas gets the edge cause he's a better return man

[@earthwormmega]

Jason Barrett I agree

[@SouljaxSwagx]

Does anyone know how he got so fast/quick??

[@dogman1disturbed1rok]

Can someone explain why he isn't playing nfl? Serious question...

[@shoeboiXxX]

If he plays better each year, not only will he be the best player in oregon history by his senior year but he could win heisman...except its always quarterbacks who win

[@That8oySimba9302]

You're joking right 0.o? Tavon Austin ran for 344 yards and 2 TD's vs Oklahoma in 2012. He ran through, and around the entire defense. And his position first and foremost is Wide Receiver, yet he played Running Back that game vs Oklahoma. De'Anthony Thomas is nice, but show Tavon Austin respect man. And spell his name right TAVON.

[@mahuna10]

The screen pass at 8:52, DAT makes one little cut around 8:56 and the guy immediately runs right by him without even realizing it. lol

[@madmike1951]

Very welcome... GO DUCKS!

[@JoshDuckfan]

@AzraelX561 sadly he doesn't have choice and if he does the he gets a high contract who wouldn't take that?

[@8MoneyIzmyMission8]

They are about the same. Barring any injury, DAT will run a 4.34 or better at the combine.

[@oskArtist]

how did that work out for you

[@orancoo]

Would have loved to see him at USC initially, but I'm glad he chose Oregon as we're able to see him blossom really good there. USC would have more than likely used his talents inappropriately.

[@JujinJark]

He is so fast, but i wonder if he is going to be this dominant in the NFL

[@FishTankTeleVision]

How was he not in the running for the heisman? Damn

[@MrJordan123123]

Yo DAT is really live omg and he got a lot faster sense his freshman yr

[@ValleyWolf11]

Not as quick as Tavon but his speed in the open field is ridiculous. I'm a fan

[@TswitchReal]

Lol every single time I watch this, 10:57 cracks me up haha salty old man

[@soccer3357]

@dogman1disturbed1rok He is only a sophomore you cant go to the NFL draft till the end of your junior year

[@demontrezjones138]

He'll do great with the saints
