"I've got a visit to Vanderbilt set up for the first weekend in April, from Thursday to Sunday," said Graham. "That's a school I'm really interested in. My uncle lives there and my grandmother is moving up there from South Carolina. My mom may also move there after my brother and I graduate from high school."
Should the Commodores land the 6-foot-6, 245-pound prospect from Richmond (Va.) St. Christopher's, it would be the second consecutive year Vanderbilt signed a highly-touted tight end. Last year Vanderbilt signed Brad Allen, the No. 5 tight end in the nation. Who else is Graham looking at?
"The other day Duke called my coach and told him they were interested in me," he said. "They even mentioned the possibility of offering me, so that caught my attention. Duke is close to home and is a great school for academics. It's also in the ACC, which is another big draw. So right now I like Vanderbilt and Duke a lot."
Allen has also received interest from schools like Virginia, Virginia Tech, Auburn, Indiana and Northwestern. He plans on attending the Nike Camp at Happy Valley and attending other camps at schools like North Carolina, Virginia, Vanderbilt, Northwestern and Georgia.
