T.J. Watt ‘Embraces’ Opportunity To Call Latrobe Home For Training Camp

Being an NFL football player, it can be easy to expect to be treated with the nicest facilities and equipment that money can buy. As a former team operation intern for the Minnesota Vikings back in 2018 when their new facility in Eagan, MN debuted, my eyes were opened the extravagance that NFL teams must splurge on their players, sparing no expense to have the nicest practice fields, meeting rooms, locker rooms, and cafeteria I have ever seen in my life.

That isn’t exactly the case as St. Vincent College in Latrobe PA.

St. Vincent College is a small school that has most of its sports compete at the Division III level in the NCAA, a far cry from the prestigious universities that many players of the Pittsburgh Steelers used to call home during their college days.
