08/30/21 - RB Caleb Hood, Sr/2025, North Carolina

North Carolina freshman running back Caleb Hood is not one of those high school quarterbacks who was asked and begrudgingly made a position switch once he started college. Quite the contrary: Hood hated playing quarterback, even though he was a four-year starter at Richmond Senior High School in Rockingham. He only did it because his dad asked him to - once - on his little league team. The change, oddly enough, launched another career as well. Jakolbe Baldwin was at quarterback and he moved to wide receiver, the position he now plays for N.C. State. Hood was at running back, and he moved to quarterback.

"We weren't very effective at receiver at that time, and then we put Jakolbe there and he fell into place," said Errol Hood, who coached his son's 12-year old team. "We put Caleb at quarterback, he fell into place and put another guy running back, he fell into place. We became the No. 1 one team in North Carolina and from that point, Caleb never went back to running back." It almost didn't happen with the Tar Heels either. Errol Hood was recruited by UNC coach Mack Brown in the mid 90s and sat out as a redshirt during Brown's final season before he took the job at Texas. Errol Hood also starred at quarterback in high school before becoming a defensive back for Heels from 1998-2001. Caleb Hood, who was being recruited as an athlete, initially figured he'd duplicate his father's path by becoming a defensive back when he reached Chapel Hill. But Errol Hood challenged his son's thought process. - Raleigh News Observer
