is Soehner is graduating? or is he considered a fringe nfl prospect?

Unsure if he'll try for the NFL, but he called it the end of his Cyclone career on twitter.
Wouldn’t see why not. Heard he accepted East West Shrine invite.

There’s a place in the league for blocking specialist TE’s. With his size he could even be a tackle convert.

Based on what I'm seeing on Twitter, it looks like Kolar has confirmed he's leaving.

If true... Thanks for everything Charlie!! You'll be missed, but we are so grateful for what you did for our team & University!!

What are you seeing on twitter?

I’m not surprised about Kolar leaving. He doesn’t really have anything left to prove and he’s likely a 3rd to 4th round pick and already has an engineering degree to fall back on.

I wish Soehner would stay because he could pick up a ton more catches with Kolar gone. That being said, we will have a massive need for a transfer receiver and/or Tyler Moore to be ready to go right away with how many receiving yards are going away with Kolar gone.

Xavier has turned into a number 1 wide receiver as the season progressed. Love how he fights for every yard. Love that we get another year or two with him!!!
He’s got to be the strongest after the catch of any ISU receiver I’ve seen. The way he runs through arm tackles is so damn impressive. The guy must be able to put up huge numbers squatting.
