Fifteen months ago to the day, Michael Thomas posted a video of his highlights against Michigan cornerback Jourdan Lewis.
Lewis responded with a Twitter video (since deleted but preserved below) in which he told Thomas "he left it alone" before pointing out Thomas only compiled 80 yards in two games against Lewis and that Thomas should "do the math."
"Are you even going in the second round?" Lewis rhetorically asked.
Thomas did in fact go to the New Orleans Saints in the second round of the 2016 NFL Draft. He compiled 92 catches for 1,137 yards and 9 touchdowns as the best rookie receiver in the league.
Lewis, who returned for his fifth-year senior season in Ann Arbor, went undrafted through the first two rounds of the 2017 NFL Draft.
Minutes after the second round closed, Thomas turned to Twitter:
What team Jourdan Lewis get drafted to asking for a friend ?

Lewis is now considered 0-6 against Ohio State all-time, despite the Dallas Cowboys drafting Lewis in the third round with the 92nd overall pick:

Thomas retweeted Lewis' tweet, which is all in spirit of The Rivalry.
