Throws for 86 yards Yellen went 13-for-20 and passed for 86 yards, no touchdowns and one interception Saturday as Hawaii won 24-14 against Duquesne.
Impact Yellen bounced back against Duquesne with a passing percentage of 65.0 percent after completing 36.1 percent of his passes in Week 2 against Michigan. Yellen's 86 yards was the third lowest of the season and he has yet to throw a single touchdown for the Rainbow Warriors. His team was luck to have won against the Dukes, but Yellen will likely have to throw a touchdown pass Saturday if he wants to beat New Mexico State.

Headed to Hawaii Yellen committed to Hawaii on Monday, via his personal Twitter account.
Impact Yellen spent the 2019 and 2020 campaigns with Pittsburgh but appeared in just five total games, passing for 694 yards and tossing five touchdowns to five interceptions. He'll now set his sights on impressing his next coaching staff, especially considering the depth the Rainbows already have under center.

Granted immediate eligibility The NCAA granted Yellen a waiver Friday, making him eligible to compete immediately at Pittsburgh, Bruce Feldman of The Athletic reports.
Impact Yellen transferred away from Arizona State this offseason after he was unable to beat out Jayden Daniels for the Sun Devils' starting quarterback job. He quickly found a new home at Pittsburgh, where he should at least get the chance to compete for the top spot on the depth chart after incumbent starter Kenny Pickett's rather lackluster showing in 2019. Even if he doesn't claim the starting spot for 2020, Yellen should be well positioned for playing time as a redshirt sophomore the following season.
