The expectation of the descent number of a random Young tableau of a fixed
shape is given, and concentration around the mean is shown. This result is
generalized to the major index and to other descent functions. The proof
combines probabilistic arguments together with combinatorial character theory.
Connections with Hecke algebras are mentioned.
