Gordon Monson: 'If Thomas needs mental health treatment, medication, counseling, get it to him. If he needs incarceration, get it to him. If he needs both, get it to him.'
Utah Utes running back Tavion Thomas as the University of Utah host Southern Utah University at Rice-Eccles Stadium in Salt Lake City, Sept. 10, 2022.Charges of domestic violence are a serious red flag, especially when they come in bunches, innocence presumed or not. It’s left to the court to determine their veracity.
What I do know is that he was recently booked into the Salt Lake County jail, where he remains, being held without bail. And that twice before over the last six months Thomas has been accused of being violent, a threat to women. And that his girlfriend earlier this week told a judge he should be released, needing treatment for bipolar and borderline personality disorders. The court may have agreed with the last part, but not the first, not right now. That’s a matter of record.
Anybody who watched him during his first season at Utah, season before last, can attest to that. In a program that has featured more than a few fantastic running backs through the years, Thomas looked as promising as any of them. And, as mentioned, that’s saying something. But then absences from games came, untold troubles away from the locker room, limited carries, Thomas leaving the team before the season ended, supposedly to prepare for the pros. Hmm. Something was amiss.Smack dab in the middle of his preparation for the coming NFL Draft, Thomas has been charged with one count of aggravated kidnapping in the course of committing unlawful detention and two counts of aggravated assault.
