Vanderbilt adds two Stanford transfers

Davis Dudchock will be immediately eligible at Vanderbilt.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Former Stanford football players Davis Dudchock and Chandler Dorrell have transferred to Vanderbilt and will be eligible to play this season.

Dudchock, a tight end, is a graduate transfer using his final year of eligibility. Dudchock, listed as 6-foot-4 and 245 pounds, played eight games for Stanford last fall and caught five passes for 43 yards.

Dorrell, a redshirt freshman, will play wide receiver for Vanderbilt after working out as a defensive back at Stanford. Dorrell was a high school wide receiver at St. Thomas Aquinas in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.

As a former Stanford defensive coordinator, Vanderbilt coach Derek Mason already is familiar with both players. Dorrell also is the son of Vanderbilt offensive coordinator Karl Dorrell.

Vanderbilt opens its season Aug. 28 against Temple.
