          Elijah Thomas has been a touted recruit for a few years now, ranking among the top-10 prospects in the country back when he was a sophomore.

          While he's dipped a little bit in the class, the 6-foot-9 Texas A&M signee still was among the nominees to be selected to the McDonald's All American game. When the rosters were revealed on Wednesday evening, though, only one Texan was listed and it wasn't Thomas.

          And the No. 29-ranked prospect in the ESPN 100 took to Twitter and used some self-deprecating humor to demonstrate his dismay at the snub.
