In all St. Thomas's works, why did he only cite his teacher, St. Albertus Magnus, once? This citation is in Super Sent., lib. 1 d. 8 q. 5 a. 3 co., according to a search I made in the Index Thomosticus. Was it because St. Albert was more Neoplatonic? Or was this not a common practice for students to do in medieval universities? Or was there a sort of "falling out" between him and his teacher, similar to how Aristotle's views are very opposed to those of his teacher, Plato?

Fr. Torrel, O.P., seems to give a mixed impression in his Saint Thomas Aquinas pp. 24ff. On the one hand, he made tabula (notes) of St. Albert's courses on Dionysius and the Nicomachean Ethics for his own students, but on the other hand, St. Albert didn't care follow St. Thomas's theological writings.
