More on Vandenberg

Ian Vandenberg

Just a few more notes on new commit Ian Vandenberg.

Not only will he be the first Paw Paw HS grad to come to Columbia football, he would also be the first Kalamazoo, MI resident to do so. 

Vandenberg took an official visit to Cornell this month and had some interest from Harvard, Yale, and Fordham. Central Michigan offered him a preferred walk-on spot. 

He was also a standout at a big combine conducted last year.
