    To me this JUCO vs HS recruiting thing is similar to the question in the baseball draft between HS and college players: HS players offer ceiling to dream on while also having a floor of never making the Major Leagues while college players may have less to dream on but have a much higher percentage chance of contributing.

    So that brings me to my point. I like adding these JUCOs because they are way less risky than the HS kids. Most Everyone of these JUCOs we are signing will contribute to winning on the field while only a few of the HS kids will. Look back at Dandy Donzens and our previous classes. It's clear

    Yes, it's fun to think about that project HS kid and dream that he could turn into a stud due to his measurables but the truth is that there is about an 80+% chance he's gonna suck and never contribute. Sure, if you can sign 4/5 star HS kids that have a much higher floor, then you should, but give me JUCOs that will contribute over taking fliers and chances on dudes that won't likely ever play.

    We're about to have less dead weight on our roster than we've ever had.
