Gardner-Webb’s Big-Play Tight End Who Set the Standard
In the 2014 season, Seth Cranfill was a bona fide matchup problem for Gardner-Webb, catching 37 passes for 401 yards and 3 touchdowns while earning AP second-team FCS All-America honors. His calling card was rare tight-end production for the era, plus excellent size (6-foot-4, 246 pounds), improved blocking, and enough athleticism to stretch the field—highlighted by a 75-yard catch-and-run, the longest play by a tight end in Big South history. For a team needing a reliable, physical, high-IQ TE who can do more than just block, he looks like a premium fit.
