Hate that we won't see him on the flats but there is no doubt he gave his all. Hell of a Jacket!

 

[JacketFan137]

as he should. get that bag and represent the jackets at the next level

 

[kg01]

Hate to see ya go ('cause you were a great one)...

Love to watch ya leave ('cause I know you'll do your family, yourself, and the Institute proud).

For a second I thought the thread title said he was entering the portal and I had a huge WTF moment. But yeah, go get that bread Charlie!

Somebody’s gonna get a damn steal here. He’ll go low and/or UDFA and be like Mason. He may be closer to Alvarado in the way Pros assess him. Hope he goes higher because I believe he has the raw talent, but he’ll definitely make a roster somewhere and he’ll see the field by the time year 1 is up, by year 2 some much higher rated guy will be riding the pine.

Pretty sure he is out of eligibility anyway, so I don't think this is a surprise.

This thread should be changed to “name a better linebacker we’ve had in the past decade” because I can’t think of one. Truly a menace, always created problems. Blatantly obvious when he wasn’t on the field. Cheers, go make that mulah!

 

[TooTall]

This says it all. Only player that walked who had a long embrace with HCBK.

 

[Jacket4Life]

Best of luck Charlie! One hell of a player!

 

[MWBATL]

Good on him!

Thanks for everything Charlie!

 

[GaTech4ever]

Just to be clear, he’s not leaving GT with any eligibility

Yea he played as a true frosh and has been here 5 seasons (free covid year added).

 

[g0lftime]

He always seemed to lay it all on the line on every play. He hit so hard he occasionally injured himself. Sorry he will not be back but at some point we all have moved on in life. Best of luck Charlie. We gonna miss you and those hard tackles.

Damn that time went fast.

 

[GT05]

Flat out BALLER!

Charlie is my favorite player on this team. He was my favorite player on last year's team. He just flat-out hits you. Reckless abandon.

Coach Key was thinking about C Thomas when he said " we will play fast/physical and teams won't want to play us.

On our defense he has been the chicken added to our vegetable soup.

Good luck to charlie in your future and i hope we have some lbs that step up to plug your gap.

I wish he could stay, but time's up. And, like Mason last year, some pro team will get a whole lot more than they bargained for with Thomas. He's one of those special players who goes to the ball like a heat-seeking missle on every play. Fast too. Someone will probably be tempted to make an SS out of him, but I'm betting a couple of practices will put him back at LB despite his size.

Thanks for giving Tech fans something hopeful and exciting to watch for the last four years, Charlie! I know you'll succeed wherever you end up playing. And you will play.
