For the second year in a row, Vandy is the host of an event Wednesday through Friday titled "Tight End University", a camp for tight ends that featured a number of famous NFL tight ends, including superstars Rob Gronkowski and Travis Kelce. Also on hand was Buffalo Bills QB Josh Allen. This was a great opportunity for the program and the practice field to host some greats!

How the heck did VAndy attract those guys? What is the connection that brought them here?

Re: Gronk, Travis Kelce among TEs on Vandy campus today
Tight End University was organized a few years ago by Kelce, George Kittle, and Greg Olsen as a camp resource exclusively for those who play the tight end position. Vanderbilt just stepped up and volunteered to host it at its practice facilities (last year), and I think this is the second year it's been at Vandy... obviously a win-win.

Re: Gronk, Travis Kelce among TEs on Vandy campus today
That was some really interesting instruction from Kelce. Puting pressure on the defender by changing the tempo of your route running. Not something I had ever thought of before.

George Kittle lives here in the offseason. You'll see him at Preds games watching his good friend Filip Forsberg.
