The honor marks Thomas’ second weekly award this week, as he was also recognized Monday as the ACC Defensive Back of the Week following his standout performance against the Seminoles.

The Hurricanes (5-0, 1-0 ACC) are on a bye this week before returning to action on Oct. 17 against Louisville at Hard Rock Stadium.

Just goes to show you that experience matters. Of course we will see anomalies like a Toney that step in and ball. But this young man is battle tested and has played a lot of college snaps. Combine that with being a perfect fit schematically and he looks like one of the best safeties in America. That’s how you portal

My FSU friends were slurping him pretty hard. They were like we were one guy away every time and it was always him as the guy. He played a great game in coverage and even better in run support. Stone Cold put a lot on his plate in that game.
