He played college football at Colorado State, NC State and Louisiana–Monroe. He has also been a member of the Minnesota Havok of the Indoor Football League (IFL) and the Los Angeles Kiss of the AFL.

Early years

Thomas was a three-year starter, three-year captain, four-year letterman and two-time team MVP for the Valhalla High School Norsemen of El Cajon, California.[1]

He was on the varsity team his freshman year.[2][3] He also played outside linebacker as a freshman.[4] He recorded over 1,900 passing yards, eight passing touchdowns, three rushing touchdowns and one receiving touchdown his sophomore season in 2007.[5][6] He earned CalHiSports.com Second Team Sophomore All-State accolades.[7][1][8] He was also named Second Team All-East County by EastCountySports.com.[9]

Thomas played in 13 games his junior year in 2008, throwing for over 3,100 yards, 28 touchdowns and five interceptions as he helped the Norsemen advancing to the CIF San Diego Section final held at Qualcomm Stadium, where the team lost to eventual Division II state bowl champion Cathedral.[1][10][11][12] Valhalla finished the year with an 11-2 record.[13] Thomas earned First Team All-Grossmont South League,[14][15] Grossmont South League Offensive Player of the Year,[15] First Team San Diego Section All-CIF,[16][17] and All-State honors.[1] He was also named both First Team All-East County and the East County Co-Offensive Player of the Year by EastCountySports.com.[15]

He appeared in 11 games as a senior in 2009, passing for 2,392 yards and 24 touchdowns with six interceptions[12][18] as the Norseman won their first Grossmont South League title in school history,[12][19] and advanced to the first round of the CIF Division II state playoffs.[1] He earned First Team All-Grossmont South League,[15][20] Grossmont South League Co-Offensive Player of the Year,[15][20] First Team San Diego Section All-CIF,[21] and All-State honors.[1][22] He was named both First Team All-East County and the East County Co-Offensive Player of the Year by EastCountySports.com.[15] He was also a finalist for the KUSI Silver Pigskin, which is awarded to the best high school football player in the San Diego Section.[23] Thomas played in the Offense-Defense All-American Bowl on January 2, 2010.[1][24] He was named the Offense-Defense CCN Scholar Athlete of the Year.[25] He also received two points in the 2010 Best of the West voting but was not selected to the team.[26]

He also spent time as the team's kicker while at Valhalla and earned Grossmont South League Kicker of the Year accolades his junior season.[1][14][27] Thomas set school records for single-season and career completions, completion percentage, passing yards, and passing touchdowns while also making the most field goals in school history. He started 36 games during his high school career, including the last three games of his freshman season.[1]

Thomas also lettered two years in baseball, playing varsity as a freshman and sophomore before deciding to focus on football.[1] He earned Honorable Mention All-Grossmont South League honors in baseball both years.[28][29] He graduated a semester early.[30] He won the San Diego Union-Tribune Scholar-Athlete award four times and was the Union-Tribune's Student-Athlete of the Year among football players in San Diego County his senior year.[1][31]

In the class of 2010, Thomas was rated a four-star football recruit by Rivals.com,[32][1] a three-star recruit by Scout.com,[33] and a two-star recruit by ESPN.com.[34] He was also rated the No. 16 pro-style quarterback in the country by Rivals.com,[32][35] the No. 28 quarterback in the country by Scout.com,[33][36] and the No. 91 quarterback in the country by ESPN.com.[34][37] He was also rated both a three-star recruit and the No. 37 pro-style quarterback in the country on 247Sports.com's composite rating, which takes into account the ratings of all the other major recruiting services in the country.[38][39][40] As late as October 2009, Tom Lemming had Thomas rated the No. 6 pro-style quarterback in the class of 2010.[41][42][43]

He began training with quarterbacks coach George Whitfield, Jr. in the eighth grade.[44][45]

College career

Thomas committed to Arizona State in June 2009.[10][46] He also had offers from Boston College, Northwestern, Colorado State, Maryland and Harvard.[1][10][12] On December 21, 2009, he changed his commitment to Colorado State.[47][32][48] The firing of Arizona State offensive coordinator Rich Olson on December 3, 2009 reportedly affected Thomas's decision.[49][47][50] After Olson's firing, it was reported that Thomas was going to visit Colorado State. Thomas said that "After Coach Olson wasn't there anymore, I felt that I had to step back and revaluate [sic] the situation. I called them just in the last two days saying I wanted to take a visit".[49] After committing to Colorado State, Thomas said he "had been thinking of taking a visit to CSU ever since Arizona State’s offensive coordinator got fired."[47]

Colorado State University

Thomas played for the Colorado State Rams of Colorado State University from 2010 to 2011.[1] He started attending Colorado State in the spring of 2010 due to graduating a semester early from high school.[51][1]

He started all twelve games as a freshman in 2010, setting a single-season school record with a .647 completion percentage.[1] He was the only true freshman in the nation to start all of his team's games at quarterback.[1][52] Thomas completed 253 of 391 passes for 2,662 yards and eleven touchdowns with thirteen interceptions. He broke Caleb Hanie's single-season freshman passing record and became the first freshman in school history to lead the team in passing yards.[1] He completed 29 of 36 passes for 386 yards and three touchdowns in a 36-34 win against the Idaho Vandals on September 25, earning Mountain West Conference Offensive Player of the Week honors.[1][53] Thomas led the Mountain West in pass completions and total plays in 2010.[54]

He started the first nine games of the 2011 season before suffering a knee injury that caused him to miss the rest of the year. He completed 161 of 261 passes for 1,607 yards and seven touchdowns with eight interceptions in 2011. He also rushed for three touchdowns and was a team captain.[1] He had a 6-15 record as a starter at Colorado State.[55]

In January 2012, it was reported that Thomas had been granted his release from Colorado State and that he would be transferring to another school.[56][55] The firing of head coach Steve Fairchild in December 2011 reportedly played a role in his decision to transfer.[56][55] Thomas said "I needed a new start, and I am looking for that opportunity. When I committed to CSU, I never thought of Fairchild or the staff being fired, but it's a business."[56]

North Carolina State University

In January 2012, Thomas transferred to play for the NC State Wolfpack of North Carolina State University.[57] He had to sit out the 2012 season due to transfer rules and redshirted.[57][58] He was beat out for the starting job in 2013 by Brandon Mitchell and replaced him as the starter when Mitchell suffered an injury.[59] Thomas played in nine games, starting six, for the Wolfpack in 2013. He completed 149 of 247 passes for 1,667 yards and four touchdowns with nine interceptions. He also scored two rushing touchdowns.[58]

In February 2014, NC State announced that Thomas was going to transfer from the school after graduating with a bachelor's degree in May.[60][61] Before the announcement, NC State head coach Dave Doeren had publicity said that transfer Jacoby Brissett would be the starter for the next two seasons.[62][63] Pete was a communication major at NC State.[64]

University of Louisiana at Monroe

In April 2014, the University of Louisiana at Monroe announced that Thomas was transferring to play for the Louisiana–Monroe Warhawks in 2014.[65][61][66][67] He started twelve games for the Warhawks in 2014, completing 301 of 501 passes for 3,181 yards and 14 touchdowns with six interceptions.[68][69] He led the Sun Belt Conference in pass attempts and completions.[54] Thomas also set single-season school records in passing completions and attempts while becoming the third quarterback in Warhawks history to throw for at least 3,000 yards in a season.[69][68] He also rushed for three touchdowns.[70]
