UT’s Thompson breaking free from the pack of WRs

University of Toledo junior receiver Cody Thompson is having a breakthrough season.

For Thompson, there is no better feeling than breaking a tackle or getting behind the defense and seeing no defender between him and the end zone.

“If you could experience it, I would tell everyone to experience it,” Thompson said.

“It’s a great feeling. Your adrenaline gets going and it’s kind of hard to explain, but once you see that end zone you want to get there at all costs.”

Thompson, a converted high school quarterback from Huron High School, has been making big plays for Toledo all season.
