LSU’s blocking-first tight end with hands, grit, and just enough big-play juice
In the 2007 season, Mit Cole was LSU’s reliable, low-drama tight end: a 6-foot-4, 260-pound senior who backed up Richard Dickson and Keith Zinger, played on special teams, and finished his LSU career with 4 catches for 36 yards and 1 touchdown. The standout trait was his profile as a physical blocker with good hands and footwork, plus enough versatility to contribute on punt and kick units. He wasn’t a volume producer, but he was the kind of tough, team-first piece coaches trust when they want assignment-sound football.
