"He burst on the scene last year as a receiver," McGuire said. "He has outstanding speed and his routes will just get better with reps. He's also a great kick returner and cornerback when we need him to play defense. He has legit Power 5 athletic ability."
Bonner has earned a dozen offers from the likes of Baylor, Virginia Tech, Houston, SMU, Utah, Pittsburgh, Illinois and Tulane, just to name a few.
Getting him the ball is 6-foot-5 QB Maddox Kopp, who comes from an athletic family of DI basketball players and a DI football player. He's the next installment.

"Maddox is slowly gaining momentum after backing up Peyton Matocha (University of Miami) as a sophomore," McGuire said. "He's a pro-style kid who is athletic enough to hurt you with his legs. He has a very strong arm and is a 'film-rat', who makes great decisions."
Kopp has been offered by Lehigh and Cornell so far.
Kopp has a great safety-valve in Drake Martinez, a 6-foot-3 tight end who had just short of 650 yards in receiving and seven TDs. He was an all-state selection. Martinez has been offered by South Florida and Colorado State.
"Drake's upside is huge and he will graduate at only 17-years old," McGuire said. "He loves the grind. He put on 20 pounds last year and got to 220-pounds. He had 50 catches and really grew into a great blocker."
On defense is all-stater Vince Lee, who has picked up a few DIII offers.
With future college talent in the huddle, McGuire has the personnel to win a title for St. Thomas – its first in nearly 20 years.
