Harvard announces their 2029 recruiting class on Thursday. The class features 14 players on offense, 13 on defense, and four on special teams. The offensive talent coming in includes one quarterback, two running backs, seven pass catchers, and four offensive linemen. On defense, the coaching staff added five defensive linemen, three linebackers, and five defensive backs alongside one kicker, one punter, and two long snappers as specialists.

It is a strong class for Andrew Aurich and his staff. In typical Harvard fashion, it is a national class but also features four players from New England and one player from Canada. 

The class includes five student-athletes from Florida, three each from Maryland, Massachusetts, and Texas, two each from California, Illinois, and North Carolina, and one each from Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Maine, Ohio, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, Washington state, and the Canadian province of Ontario.

The Harvard brand and education once again allows the program to bring together a talented group of players.
