UL signs juco All-American, an ex-West Virginia signee

[Boomer]

Yep, seems that way. He could have been on West Virginia's roster this fall, but they wanted him to pay his own way this fall and receive a scholarship in the spring. HUD offered a scholarship. He can play this fall.

Rick and Rick---this is starting to resemble the "Spirit of '76" with the QB transfer and all the JUCOs----Maybe we have to call in MS Leona Poche to baby sit!!! lol

If these guys are only half as good as the JC's we had back then, we will definitely be OK.

---Just thinking back---you know who I didn't offer was Sidney Taylor----Well Roy said to make sure I got him and he did perform damn well as I remember----His dad was a waiter at Patti Os in NO and spoke like the Godfather!!!

I wonder where he plays

according to Phil Steele Mag, he was listed 3rd on the Depth Chart at WV as Right Tackle. I would assume he will begin on our 2 deep as one of our Tackles, either Right or Left.

thats what Juco is for

I wonder why the ivy league hasn't noticed the astronomical success rate of the JUCO's and take more transfer students in from that pool of candidates?

Ivy schools do not provide schollys for sports ..

most kids at jucos cant afford cars much less 200 k student loans

I LOVE JUCOS !!!!!!

If given the choice between signing a guy who probably won't make the grades and signing a JUCO who was that guy but now has the grades with less eligibility, I'll sign the JUCO every dang time.

I just said students, so you are saying only athletes get good schooling at juco, not the entire student body? Are there difgerent classes, how does that work exactly???

[31Ragin97]

No not for sports, but 100 percent for anyone if parents make less than 85k or 65k, whether u play or not, so quite a few that play sports wind up on full scholarship

you were referring to athletes

however a good high school friend went to delghetto due to his poor ACT scores in high school then UNO and is in law school at Cornell right now.

Sooo yeah Ivy schools do take former JUCO guys
