Yes, we've all heard we're young until we're all blue in the face, but again, take it as you wish....There are 16 players that were singled out; 2 Sr, 1 Jr, 7 So, 6 Fr. 13 out of 16 either Fr. or So.
Play 1 - Jamoral Graham, Jr. first full season to play cb after being on offense before.
Play 2 - Fletcher Adams, Fr; Gerri Green, So; Mark McLauren, So.
Play 3 - Keith Mixon, Fr.
Play 4 - Jamal Peters, So.
Play 5 - Ferrod Green, Fr; Michael Story, Fr.
Play 6 - Brandon Bryant, So; Jamal Peters, So; Mark McLauren, So.
Play 7 - Jamal Peters, So.
Play 8 - DeAndre Ward, Sr. Walk-on.
Play 9 - Jamal Claiborne, Sr.
Play 10- Deddrick Thomas, Fr; Keith Mixon, Fr.

OXFORD, Miss. (WTVA) - Ole Miss campus police ask students to behave at future baseball games following a recent incident.
The university said students were reportedly throwing rocks at Georgia baseball players during last weekend's series.

We don't play in CUSA so the comparison is simply ridiculous.
Name an SEC school in the last 15 years that has rebuilt on the backs of Junior College players.

I said backs, not back. Lol.
That team had a lot HS talent all over the roster, but you're right if we can find a dynamic juco QB I'm all for it.

I don't understand why the comparison is ridiculous. The level of JUCOs we're getting aren't CUSA level... most all are being offered by sec teams. Had usm got JUCOs that no CUSA teams wanted, the JUCOs wouldn't have worked. Out of the 11 they took, at least 6 were offered by teams in CUSA or equal conferences.

We took 6 JUCOs in '09 and only 2 worked out... the big turnaround in '10 wouldn't have been possible without those 2 (McPhee and Chris white). It was another juco in '10 class that really fueled that turnaround in Ballard

Some are. There are only a handful of elite juco players every year. Since we need some of these guys I see no reason to point out which ones, but let's put it like this, if juco players aren't taking official visits to a school, then usually that school doesn't really like them.
Jucos are meant to help with specific depth issues on a team, not to build a team. Jucos are helpful when you need an 8th OL that can fill in if needed. If you are relying on a juco guy to come in and start, particularly on the OL or DL, you are going to be disappointed.

I want turnover on offensive staff, not defensive
That 3-4 crap is never going to work. No pressure ever and get gashed every other play in the running game.need to put pressure on the qb to help a young secondary because we can't cover

Well, it's shows that the right JUCO talent at a position of need can have a huge impact. Don't forget, Nick Fairley transferred in from Co-Lin that season before. So, no it isn't ridiculous AU would have been an 8-5 team without Cam and Nick.
