Well this is news to, like everyone.

Fastest TE to 8000 yards receiving in NFL history.

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...

[bearcatbret]

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

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

[Lobot]

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:

- Oladipo / Zeller Legacy Lounge at IU https://www.insidethehall.com/2018/0...l-locker-room/

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.

Travis Kelce is a stud & could/should end up as the greatest TE in NFL History.

[bearcatbret]

The Kelce brothers are both in the pro bowl game.
