Update on Tevin Hood

Former Duke defensive lineman Tevin Hood has been provisionally accepted at Yale.

Hood played in four games as a freshman for the Blue Devils and had four tackles including 1/2 of a sack.

Hood will need to take two classes at Yale this summer, classes he previously planned to take, to play at Yale and have three years of eligibility.

In the next day or two, Yale is also expected to announce its class of incoming recruits which is expected to number 29 (30 counting Hood).

The list could grow by two 31 as the Bulldogs are waiting on a pair of recruits who are awaiting results of their SATs so they can land in the bands Yale has slotted for them. Since at least one of them has previously committed to another school, I will refrain from mentioning their names if they are included in Yale's incoming class.

Here are the 29 names that I have of committed recruits with the newest name being linebacker Will Vaughn, who had three games with at least 10 tackles as a senior at Columbia (N.J.) High School.
