"I think it just shows how Penn State has developed great tight ends in the past," Olesh said. "Gesicki, Pat Freiermuth, Brenton Strange, Theo Johnson and now Tyler Warren is looking at a first-round draft pick. So I think the development is just there, especially from coach Howle. I think he's the best tight ends coach in the country, so you can't really go wrong in that department.

He was a receiver then and found the camp lineup crowded with "like 80 receivers in one line." So Olesh switched to the less crowded tight ends group to take reps.
