Almost caught back up...let's take a look at the Tight Ends now:

#83 Senior Adam Conrady - 6'6", 260 lbs
#87 Junior Laquay Brown - 6'2", 220 lbs
#47 Sophomore Nathan Karsjens - 6'6", 255 lbs
#88 Sophomore Chris Age - 6'4", 238 lbs
#86 Freshman Sam Barkalow - 6'6", 230 lbs

Last Year's TE Stats
Adam Conrady had 13 catches for 188 yards and 3 TDs. Senior Tony Harper finished with 18 catches for 179 yards and 1 TD. Tyler Slamans picked up 8 catches for 47 yards and 2 TDs.

This Year
Since Conrady ended up with the majority of the TE catches last year, we'll probably see a similar situation this year. Junior Transfer Laquay Brown (from Coastal Carolina) should also be in the mix as well. He's a bit shorter than you typically see in a TE, but ended up playing in 10 games as a redshirt freshman on special teams and 12 games last year, so he seems decent. He's listed as a "Freshman" on our roster, which I think is an error, since he already redshirted one year and played two years at CCU. I'm calling him a Junior until I hear otherwise. Chris Age sounds like he has a good amount of potential, so we'll probably see him some as well. I don't really know much about Nathan Karsjens yet, so I can't really comment on his abilities, and I'd imagine that Barkalow will probably redshirt this season.
