Dartmouth Preview

The 2-1 Big Green will visit the Yale Bowl at 1 PM ET on Saturday and the game can be viewed on the ILDN.  Dartmouth enters the contest after a 37-24 loss to Penn last Friday.  Penn was able to put significant pressure on QB Jack Heneghan forcing two ugly interceptions from the junior signal caller.  Sophomore RB Miles Smith ran for 95 yards on just 5 carries last week, so the Bulldogs will need to limit his big play ability to stay in control of the game.  Most importantly for Yale, we must cover WRs Hunter Hagdorn and Drew Hunnicutt to derail Teevens’ offensive plans.  We’re hoping to see Marquise Peggs and Dale Harris out there in the secondary this week, but haven’t received confirmation if they are both ready to go.  Teevens is the type of coach that cannot adequately make in-game adjustments, so punching Dartmouth in the mouth early on can set the Elis up for a huge victory.

Defensively, the Big Green were gashed all day by Penn QB Torgersen and Penn RB Solomon.  Salter, Rich and Moore should be able to pound the ball against this defense and make Yale’s former defensive line coach Duane Brooks wish he had never left New Haven.  If Tre Moore can limit his mistakes passing the ball and the offensive line can keep defenders at bay, we can put up 28+ points on this defense.  This Dartmouth team is not the same unit that handled the Bulldogs 35-3 last year.

What IS the deal with Bo Hines? Is he injured? Did he practice this week? Has he, in effect if not actually, quit the team? He was one of two players who didn’t make the squad picture that appeared in the Lehigh program.

And, can anyone provide an update on the status of other players dropped from the roster during the last couple of years and highly rated recruits who are either injured or not injured?
If this is the official source of information about Yale Football (run by former Yale players – thank you!), then you should have Access to this information. PS: Do not go to Steve Conn.

Jake DeHart, Jimmy Wilkins, Duncan Morfitt, Jon Bezney, Jack Rushin, Copache Tyler, Daniel James.

DeHart and Tyler are no longer enrolled
Wilkins is on the rugby team
Graham, Bezney, James, and Rushin are still a part of the team so I just assume they aren’t effective enough to get varsity minutes.
Firestone and Morfitt are not on the team

Thanks for the information. Any teakeaways from the histories of these highly regarded young men?

J. Graham hurt — hasn’t suited up in a while (perhaps all season?). Played in the Brown scrimmage.

Rushin on roster but not suited up all year. Thought I read last month he was “off the team.”

James played in the JV game last month.

I read that the injured DB Will Bryan IV was cleared to play in week 2. He returned a INT 80 yards for a TD in the recent JV game against Milfird Academy.
