Travis Kelce

[Lobot]

According to the Chief's stats folks, Travis is now #5 all-time in the TE receiving yards category. He passed Grownskowski and Greg Olsen yesterday.

When you’ve hit the big time:

I don't know if any have publicly happened from either Kelce brother. That doesn't mean there haven't been anonymous donations or something under an affiliated foundation.

I'd love for them to donate something big like that to the football program but I'm personally extremely wary of naming things after living people. Even where people who are long since gone are concerned, it can be a problem. See Pete Rose Way with the city or Charles McMicken Society and Schott Stadium at UC. UC's still barely even past those name changes.

Just to be clear, I'm not suggesting that the Kelces have a bad background or are offensive in some way but you can't vet the future.

Good insight, appreciate it!

I was thinking of stuff like this:
- Evan Turner Hallway at OSU https://twitter.com/chasshill/status...33795408330759
- Oladipo / Zeller Legacy Lounge at IU https://www.insidethehall.com/2018/0...l-locker-room/

Yeah, I'm only curious about any gifts to UC Athletics / UC Football...

I am pretty sure that he donated to the old rec center around Cleveland that he and his brother once destroyed.

Was watching an OSU basketball related video last week and some recent stars (Mike Conley, Evan Turner) had donated a lot of money that went towards improving the OSU basketball facilities. Since Travis Kelce still has a lot of pride in UC and is clearly making a lot of bank, do we know if he's made any significant financial contributions to the FB program? With an eye towards an indoor practice facility, feel like he could put his name on some things...

Fastest TE to 8000 yards receiving in NFL history.

Well this is news to, like everyone.

Nope he's not. He'll break out a UC or Down the Drive cheer after touchdowns occasionally. He's always said Cleveland Heights in his intro. Trust me, we get plenty of free publicity from him.

Yes, and he's also helped them with recruiting efforts i believe although i don't know the specifics. My guess is media stuff.

[Chewbacca2099]

yeah, it seemed like it was just Mahomes and Kelce playing 2 man vs that whole Bucs defense. We'll see them again next year in the same spot probably.

Kelce's line from last night. He was about the only Chief who had a decent game.

Travis Kelce	10	133	13.3	0	33	15

Is Travis Kelce ashamed to be from UC? In his introduction, he always says Cleveland Heights instead. We could sure use a little publicity from him.

TKelce out there setting post season records last night. Based on what Travis has done so far in his career, UC will have at least one NFL Hall of Famer eventually.
