The Bears tight end room has evolved the past few years with Matt Rhule in charge of the program. The goal for Baylor now is to build out a group that is more pro-style rather than the 300 (or 400) pound blocking sledge hammers and gadget plays from the prior staff. With sophomore Christoph Henle, redshirt freshman Ben Sims, and true freshman Sam Snyder on the roster now, the Bears are looking to the 2021 class to add to that room for the future. A key name for the 2021 class i Weston Wolff from Venice, Florida who visited the Bears for their Homecoming victory over Texas Tech.

"It was awesome!!" Weston said of his visit. "I really enjoyed the energy of the crowd and the game day environment was outstanding."

It was an unofficial visit for the 6-foot-4, 195 pound tight end, but not his first to Waco. He came to a Baylor camp this summer to earn a scholarship, which he did on June 5th. He also attended camps at TCU and Texas, but he had a high impression of the Bears, which was the Power-Five conference school to extend an offer.

"I was very impressed with their facilities and campus," Wolff said in an update this past June. . "I was able to create a good relationship with the coaches. I worked with Coach (Marcus) Satterfield. It was great because we had a group of less than 10 tight ends so I had the chance to get coached up and get a ton of reps to showcase my abilities."

In addition to his offer from Baylor, Wolff also claims offers from Kansas, Bowling Green, Liberty, and Old Dominion. Wolff also attended The Opening Regional in Florida last February, where he measured 6-feet-3.5 inches tall and weighed 184 pounds. He also had a 30.60 vertical jump at the event. Wolff also was a standout at the NextGen camp this past July.

The return trip allowed Wolff to take in more of Waco and the campus.

"(Saturday) my family and I got a tour of campus and facilities before the game and then we got to stand on the sideline during warmups," Wolff said of his trip. "I got to go in the locker room after the game. This morning we drove around and checked out the town a little bit. It’s a pretty cool little town. We went and visited Cameron park which I thought was pretty cool."

This was the first trip of the season for Wolff, who also told BearsIllustrated he will be visiting Old Dominion as well as West Virginia later in the year. In addition to the offers, West Virginia, Duke, and Wake Forest are also looking at Wolff and showing some interest. The Bears are building a good head start on some of those other power-five schools with one of their top recruiters building a relationship with Wolff.

"I regularly speak with Coach Evan Cooper who recruits Florida and a couple other recruiting coaches,"We mostly talk about my games and their game plans for upcoming games."

"I like that Baylor is a good academic school as well as a great football program," Wolff said in regards to what he likes about the Bears. "I would definitely consider them one of my top schools so far."

Still in his junior year, it is quite a long way till signing day for Wolff, but he has a timeline in mind for when a decision could come.

"I will probably wait until after spring to name leaders and will probably commit sometime before next season."
