Tychondrius Hood (born November 29, 2015) is an American football wide receiver for the San Jose Sabercats of the National Simulation Football League (NSFL).

Early years

Tychondrius Hood began his sports career playing soccer for local leagues and for his junior high school team. When the school's football coach watched him play he was determined to have him play for the team. Hood would play wide receiver immediately and would be a standout for the small school. Upon entering high school he would break numerous school records as the star wideout, becoming a starter during his freshman season. Hood was known as a speed receiver and would enter college as a highly touted 4* recruit. Known for his explosive playmaking abilities and crisp route running, he would then be offered scholarships from Florida, Georgia, LSU, and numerous other schools, where he inevitably would choose his hometown team and play for the Florida Gators.

College career

After accepting a scholarship from the Gators, Hood would become a household name for the fiery Gainesville squad.

Freshman Season

Hood would begin his college career returning kicks and punts, scoring on 3 returns. He would also rack up 500 yards and 6 touchdowns, eager to prove himself and gain the respect of his peers and coaches.

Sophomore Season

The Gators would promote Hood to the WR2 spot after seeing his play from the previous year, as well as the strides made during training camp. Head Coach Dan Mullen would refer to him as the teams ""secret weapon"". Hood would be used in many trick plays and sweeps. Racking up 450 Yards on the ground alone. Hood would have a solid sophomore season with 900 receiving yards and 9 touchdowns.

Junior Season

Hood would be given the reins of the starting wideout position during his 3rd season with the Gators, with many fans and coaches firmly believing that this was going to be his breakout year. Sadly during the first game of the season the Gators star quarterback would break his leg getting sacked in the third quarter. The Gators would start a true freshman and very raw quarterback for the rest of the season. Many attribute Hoods subpar year to the Gators quarterback play. Hood would end the season with 850 yards receiving, and 8 touchdowns. Although his production did not go up, when he had the ball he made the best of it, with an average of 17.5 YAC and an average of 27 YPC.

Declaring for the draft

Eager to play at the next level, and with what looked like another year with subpar quarterback play at Florida, Hood would forgo his senior season and declared for the NSFL draft and would be drafted by the Minnesota Grey Ducks in the third round of the draft.

DSFL Career

Tychondrius Hood would be drafted twenty-second overall, the sixth pick in the third round, in the season 22 Developmental Simulation Football League by the Minnesota Grey Ducks. Hood would begin his career along side veteran wide receiver Daymond Brooks, and with fellow receiver draftee Kai Sakura, with quarterback Sim Snowbow as the Grey Ducks resident quarterback and Jamar Lackson as the teams starting running back. Tychondrius Hood has had a very respectable first season, racking up over 800 yards. Hood would catch five touchdowns in his last three games, which helped him to break the Grey Duck single season and career touchdown record, bringing seven touchdowns in during the regular season. Hood would make his name as a speed and long range threat, seemingly going for 15 or more yards on a majority of his receptions, and achieving an excellent average of 14.6 yards per catch. Tychondrius Hood would go on to help the Minnesota Grey Ducks achieve a regular season record of eight wins and six losses, making way for the teams entry into the playoffs. Even though the Grey Ducks were knocked out of the playoffs in the first round by the London Royals, Tychondrius Hood managed to have a lights out rookie season, and is seemingly ready to make his name in the pro league. With the season twenty-three NSFL draft right around the corner, Hood is expected to be one of the first wide receivers off the board. Hood would end up winning Offensive Rookie of the year and Wide Receiver of the year in his first year of his career, cementing his place as a dominant wideout.

ISFL Career

As the season twenty-three International Simulation Football League draft grew nearer, there was a lot of speculation about how the first round would go. Tychondrius Hood had heard from almost every team and had great interviews with most of them. He knew teams like Honolulu, Chicago, and Yellowknife were interested, as well as San jose, but he stood his ground on having no idea where he would go, although he did state that he expected to go in the third or fourth round. Low and beyond, and much to his surprise, the San Jose Sabercats would take him with the sixth pick in the first round. Clearly ecstatic by going that early, and reuniting with many fellow former Grey Ducks, like Jamar Lackson, Lawrence Bass, and Matt Krause, was a dream come true for the young wide receiver. Going into the season expectations were somewhat low, as the team is very young at many positions, most notably quarterback, running back, and with only one veteran presence at wide receiver. Hood would spend the majority of the season not making many catches, and a lot of targets being intercepted. When Hood would get the ball he would make the most of it, averaging more than a first down a catch, but with only 48 targets and a struggling first year quarterback, he wouldn’t get many chances. Tychondrius Hood wouldn’t even score a touchdown that season sadly, but has high hope for his young team going into the future. With a very young offense coming into their own, the Sabercats look to be a powerhouse in the coming seasons.
