Built by a strong run of first-round draft talent in the early 2000s, Miami retains title as Tight End U.

I thought this was interesting as we have been discussing the Iowa pipe line at the TE position recently.

I saw the headline and thought Miami.  Didn't think Stanford--didn't even realize Ertz went to Stanford.

I think just about everyone here will think of Miami first. Iowa is coming on strong as of late.

I thought Iowa, frankly. I think it's Hockenson and Fant that did it for me. Recency bias.

there's one other Iowa TE that comes to mind, his name is something like Wittle or Pittle, heard he was pretty good  

Iowa is definitely the current champ for TE
