Another Recruiting List

Here's an updated recruiting list compiled with greatly appreciated help from several sources. The list is unofficial.

* Michael Cummings (Deerfield Academy, Mass.) 6-5, 240, defensive end/tight end
* Will Deevy (Kent Denver, Colo.) 6-5, 210 quarterback
* Tyler Green (Middlesex School, Mass.) 6-4, 255 linebacker
* Spencer Hood (Carlsbad, Calif.), 6-3, 230 linebacker
* Matthew Kelly (Tampa Catholic, Fla.), 6-2, 180, punter/kicker
* Steve Morris (Hinsdale Central, Ill.) , 6-0, 175, running back/defensive back
* Carter Scott (Hammond, S.C.), , 6-1, 210 linebacker
* Alex Wodka (Buffalo Grove, Ill.) 6-3, 285 offensive guard
* Joseph Zimring (Mary-Institute Country Day, St. Louis) 6-0, 215, running back

Among others reportedly heading to Hanover next fall are a linebacker-special teams player from the San Diego area and a running back from a New York suburb. More details on them as they become available.

A subscriber sent along a link to this disturbing New York Times story about whether the suicide last November of former NFL player Andre Waters might trace back to brain damage he suffered in football. Former Harvard player Chris Nowinski, whose pro wrestling career ended because of concussions -- and who has written the book Head Games: Football's Concussion Crisis -- triggered the investigation.
