2025 tight end Ryan Ghea out of Milton (Ga.), a four-star recruiting target, was at West End this past week to visit with Vanderbilt.
The 6-foot-5, 230-pound recruit out of Milton, GA. sat down with VandySportsDotCom to go in-depth on his interest in the Commodores program following his experience in Nashville.
Ghea said that he had a great time in Nashville and liked being around the players. What really stood out to him was being able to see his old mentor Cole Spence.
"It was a great visit," Ghea said. "Just being around the players, you could really feel the family feel. And also, just seeing my mentor Cole Spence again was amazing."
Ghea said that since the Commodores' coaching staff got involved in his recruitment, he's connected with Vanderbilt associate head coach, special teams coordinator and tight ends coach Justin Lustig and offensive analyst Brendan Flaherty.
"I have been in contact with Coach Lustig and Coach Flaherty," Ghea said. "And just being around them, watching some clips and seeing what they're doing to develop their tight ends was amazing... They loved my film and think that I could fit in well with their offense and make an impact."
Ghea said that the Commodores have been involved in his recruitment since his 8th grade year of football, adding an offer to his resume from Vanderbilt this past November. After his recent visit in Nashville, Ghea said that he will be visiting Michigan.
"They have been involved since 8th grade," Ghea said. "They offered me last November. I will be at Michigan tomorrow and that's the last one I have for a little while."
