What college coaches look for in a tight end prospect

Miami has been Tight End U or TE U for decades now. Even in the slump seasons of the past 15 years the ‘Canes have still produced NFL caliber tight ends. Dating all the way back to Glenn Dennison, Miami has focused on a pro style passing attack. In the 80’s it was Dennison, Willie Smith, and Alfredo Roberts. In the 90’s it was the underrated Coleman Bell, and Bubba Franks.

By the 2000’s the position caught fire. After Franks, Miami ran off names like Jeremy Shockey, Kellen Winslow II (just got the creeps typing his name), Jimmy Graham, Kevin Everett, Greg Olsen, and now Brevin Jordan.
