Canzano: Ex-Oregon Ducks running back Thomas Tyner will make comeback... at Oregon State
Since taking a medical retirement more than 15 months ago Thomas Tyner has been as busy as any college kid. He's attended classes at the University of Oregon. He's gone fishing and hunting for birds. And now, he's making a football comeback.
It will come in an Oregon State uniform.
Tyner requested his release from the University of Oregon on Friday. At 9 a.m. on Saturday morning it became official and the former five-star running back who once rushed for 644 yards and scored 10 touchdowns in a single game for Aloha High School prepared to talk with Beavers coach Gary Andersen about playing for OSU next season.
"I've wanted to be a Beaver my whole life," Tyner said.
