Thomas Yassmin: Welcome To America Oct 24, 2023

Show notes

Completing the trifecta of the Utah tight ends is this week's theme at the It Factory. We've had Dalton Kincaid and Brant Kuithe previously, and now we can add Thomas Yassmin to the mix. The Australian native talks about making that transition from Australia to America, the transition from rugby to football and why he elected to make the change. Plus he and Yogi break down the level of rugby Thomas was playing at in Australia and how he almost signed a contract for rugby rather than a national letter of intent to Utah. Unfortunately, since this recording took place, Thomas got injured and appears to be done for the year. While we do not know what his future will hold, we know the story of what he's been through and it is worth a listen!
