The McDonald family from Fresno is going to have an interesting time during the UCLA-USC football game in 2010 now that cornerback Tevin McDonald from Fresno Edison has committed to the Bruins. His older brother, T.J., will be a freshman defensive back at USC this fall. And his father is former Trojan Tim McDonald.

‘It is crazy that I am the only Bruin in the family and I was the last boy, but that’s how it has to be and I’m ready to take that challenge in,’ Tevin McDonald tolds Rivals.com.

McDonald, 16, will be a senior this fall at Edison. He’s 5-foot-11, 180 pounds.
