Name me one major program who today does not utilize the JUCO rote big time to improve themselves NOW.

There is no way the new staff will not at least look at JUCO players. It is a completely mystery to me why the current staff was so stuck in their archaic ways that made no sense to present day college football.

Look at the Michigans, Texas's, Oklahomas, etc…I dont think they will sign a single JUCO player this year.

That being said, I am not sure we need to. If Stephen Curtis develops the way I think he will this team will be just fine next year.

Re: JUCO Recruiting
WR and O Line are the two areas where it makes sense for us in this debate. We had a crop of WRs disappear in the last few years, guys that should've been JR and SR now were booted, or left or something.
most of those big time programs are so deep with talent they don't have to resort to that and also as Grayowl pointed out, there aren't too many juco college programs around here to stay connected with.

Re: JUCO Recruiting
More physically developed playes, who have played competitively at a higher level than HS seniors and have proven they can pass college level courses. Which also helps the programs score rankings in regards to graduating players and not, as they will be doing now, banning a Conference champion or even a No. 1 ranked team from post season bowl or tournament participation - OUCH!
And of course, we could have brought in four or five O lineman last year with say 20 starts each as opposed to going with an undersized and totally inexperienced O line. I thought - as did many (even the pro prognosticators) that the years experience would do them a world of good,. I guess not with this level of Coaching.
Come on 2012!

Not saying they all do but if you check the top 50 or even 100 JUCO recruits lists, it is DOMINATED by Big6 AQ programs by no less than 95%!

Exactly - FAU Is not 'big time' football, at least not yet. So by all means how do you not look at JUCO players that can be much more talented than the 'diamond in the rough' recruits we constantly get? Makes no sense not to look at JUCO players. But I guess it's like how are staff stubbornly continues to run a 'pro style offense' when we don't even have a D1 product on the field (but I won't digress lol)
