Four-Star TE with Strong Hands and Versatility
In the 2012 season, Christo Kourtzidis arrived at Florida State as a highly regarded four-star tight end, ranked No. 219 nationally by 247Sports, with a frame built for the position at 6-foot-4 and about 238-246 pounds. His scouting profile praised strong hands, catch radius, and the ability to separate as either an inline tight end or flexed out wide, plus enough toughness to fight for yards after the catch. The catch: he was viewed as a development piece, especially as an in-line blocker, and his Florida State stint was brief after he transferred in 2013.
