Zero juco busts. CDD had to get some jucos, and get them in, and have them produce, based on the rebuilding job he inherited. When you get jucos, they have to step in and produce or they're a bust, and we could not have that. I guess one could call Lanier a bust, but he did give us a year. Otherwise...
- Looks like our entire starting DL will be jucos
- Our starting SS will be a juco
- Starting TE is a juco
- Third WR is a juco and a potential star

That's good evaluation and follow through, folks.

Agreed.  Now I just want to see Dooley get it done on gameday.

I'm glad they're working out, but I look forward to the day when we don't HAVE to recruit them.  Championship teams are built on 4 year players.

I agree overall, but I think you still go get a couple a year. Bama does it, so does LSU.

You fill unexpected gaps with JUCOs, ie TE for us once you are at full strength.

Dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they
May act their dream with open eyes, to make it Possible.
