Class of 2016 Tight End Prospects Big Board

Written By: Nick Holmes (@HoosierHolmes)

The Hoosiers will see the graduation of two tight ends at the end of this coming season, Anthony Corsaro and Michael Cooper. As such, the Hoosiers will be looking to add at least one tight end in the 2016 class. Their options at the spot include a very diverse group of athletes, some of which will have to grow into the position, like Albert Okwuegbunam and while others might grow out of the position and land on the offensive line, for example Drew Schoeberl and Demar Holmes. Additionally, some of the prospects have spent a majority of their time at another position but still project as a tight end at the collegiate level. For instance, much like the Hoosiers' 2015 tight end commit Austin Dorris, Jay Rose also plays quarterback and has put up some pretty impressive stats in the process. Another player that could have been included on our list but instead wound up on our wide receiver big board was Homestead's Ben Skowronek.
