Damn this guy was underrated. Best reads I've seen a QB make in college. He fit that offense like it was tailor made for him. His play action and pump fake were something serious. I hope Anthony Jennings can play like that for us this year. Similar QBs in height, speed, arm strength. I mean they aren't all world athletes with rocket arms, but they are cerebral, and can get the job done.
As if 03 Sept '11 cannot come quick enough, i had to go and watch this video and i am cheering like i was at Autzen. Life doesn't get any better than this. Gots to ♥ DT ♥ (and this year 11-12, we got a Baby DT) ! WOW! Dux Rox!
The thing that makes thomas an exceptional QB for oregon is how well he sells the read. His execution on the play action is perfect. He is one of the best throwing/running quarterbacks in the nation easily.
@Doobernator He's really smart and collected, agreed. Also, NO ONE is better at making Duck videos than madmike! Thanks for another awesome video madmike, happy new year!
i'm a fresno state but i got nothing but respect for oregon,i support them than any other team in the pac 12, becuase fresno is the best team in cal by the way go dogs!
I hope he's just living in the gym this offseason. LaMichael bulked up after 09 and came back incredibly tougher and just a better football player. With some new linemen next year it'd be great if Thomas could bust out some more aggressive runs.
@evoman83 Lamichael james is in no way overated the lsu defense is just that dominant I guarantee you when bama plays lsu tomorrow they will do the exact same thing to trent richardson 100% watch the game tomorrow and get back to me.
He's smart but the falling back throws and the long windup won't fly in the NFL... Hopefully he refined his throwing technique a bit for this year. Much love for DT though. Go Ducks!!
Entering the draft early? I guess he wants to stop delaying his inevitable conversion to wide receiver. I'm sorry, this guy isn't an NFL QB....not happening.
@MrBadballer360 dt would get murdered in the nfl no question, your forgetting how fucking big cam newton is dt would never be healthy he would be constantly injured just like dennis dixon, i'm sorry just being real about it. Don't get me wrong i'm a ducks fan but come on hes tall and lanky he would break in the nfl, if you wish to prove me wrong name one qb in the nfl with the same build thats successful, 1.
This guys seriously doesnt get the recognition he derserves. So Underrated!
Most underrated quarterback ever
Most underrated QB in Oregon history
darren thomas is the only QB that doesnt run away from defenders or avoids them.. WHAT A BOSS!!

Dux Rox!
One underrated part of DT’s game is he rarely threw hospital balls, always kept his WR safe from the big hit
thanks mike! great start to a new year this made my day
Appreciate the nice comment @ESPNlovestheDucks
GO DUCKS!
Happy New Year to you also @kingnas775 and thanks for the compliment.
GO DUCKS!
Came back to relive these years. Darron was Mariota but Mariota came about

Happy New Year @kingnas775 and you are very welcome...
GO DUCKS!

Thanks for another awesome video madmike, happy new year!
I never realized how good he was until now.
Awesome highlight video! Go Ducks!
darron thomas is a beast and had to run a difficult offense
I still scratch my head to this day wondering how this dude never got a snap in the NFL...
i'm a fresno state but i got nothing but respect for oregon,i support them than any other team in the pac 12, becuase fresno is the best team in cal by the way go dogs!
the safety at 5:42 just had an "oh s**t!" moment lol
Yes I am @MrDTA21 it will be up soon...stay tuned.
GO DUCKS!
Thanks @vinny2525 !
Jesus, if you had told me that Dennis Dixon was playing for the Ducks again, I wouldn't question it. DT will become Oregon's greatest QB ever!
@lykins2012 you are very welcome.
@OGreenteamproduction I upload the Jeff video this morning.
GO DUCKS!
You are welcome @1redducks
He got some happy feet and looked slow against Cal, but otherwise he's been a really consistent QB for us this year.
Reminds me of Dennis Dixson. Too bad, he won't be drafted him, maybe go undrafted. But i love their spread offense, it's sick!!!!
If you have time a Jeff Maehl one would be awesome!
5:03 - 5:11 My favorite play
hope he plays well against auburn
I hope he's just living in the gym this offseason. LaMichael bulked up after 09 and came back incredibly tougher and just a better football player. With some new linemen next year it'd be great if Thomas could bust out some more aggressive runs.
@thefitisgo74
well put
DT are you with me
u should make a lamichael one
please tell me Darron Thomas is a freshman :( the lost to auburn and im looking forward to seeing this kid AND Lamichael next year D:
i wish i was 6'3'' with his skills :(
R u going to make a lamichael James vid?
@adrianbpj I know right?????
@SuperKnight3744 dude the quack attack will be back
I did @goducks1011 ...it will be coming later in the week...
GO DUCKS!
lik 50 million differnt networks
What happened to him
@CP2VIPERS I don't see him as an NFL QB
How lmao
lol every highlight oregon is wearing a different uniform
@1redducks Lol I'd take Van Brocklin, Smith, Miller, Graziani, Harrington, Clemons, Dixon over him.
@evoman83 Lamichael james is in no way overated the lsu defense is just that dominant I guarantee you when bama plays lsu tomorrow they will do the exact same thing to trent richardson 100% watch the game tomorrow and get back to me.
Pretty sure bama dominated
He's smart but the falling back throws and the long windup won't fly in the NFL...
Hopefully he refined his throwing technique a bit for this year.
Much love for DT though.
Go Ducks!!
He was before his time
