    Elijah Thomas is transferring from Texas A&M.

    “I’m just hoping to find somewhere that I can get an opportunity to show what I can do,” Thomas told ESPN.com. “I have no bad feelings about anything. I appreciate everything Coach [Billy] Kennedy and the staff did for me, and I’m hoping they are successful. Now I’m going to lean on my family and Coach Wes [Grandstaff] and find a place to start the next chapter of my career.”

    The 6-foot-9 Thomas out of Lancaster (TX) also considered SMU, Oklahoma State, LSU and Illinois before joining a strong class at A&M that included his friend Admon Gilder, D.J. Hogg and Tyler Davis.

    His mother, Deloris, told SNY.tv that Thomas had no list of possible destinations yet.

    “He had a lot of calls and texts [Monday] night,” she said. “He hasn’t decided [on a list] yet.”

    Thomas’ playing time has decreased as of late as Davis’ star has risen. Thomas is averaging 3.8 points and 2.5 rebounds.
