Yea. I gotta think the guys doing ratings are equally bad at both. Haha. I’d attribute the fact that we’ve had fewer impactful JCs to simply signing less JCs.

If anything, I would bet there are more diamonds in the rough among JC players. They don’t get the attention and eyeballs that top HS players do. I say that with some trepidation, but it seems like every year a lot of JUCOs with no ratings get signed.

George Moore hasn't been a bad backup for us even if he hasn't started and Sione Kava has had his name mentioned in practice reports all year long despite sitting the year out. For every Dexter Manley there is a Palauni Ma-Sun. It's only hard to get excited for JC guys because they usually are here for half the time as a HS recruit, thats how I feel about it.

Marco Aguirre, David Moretti, Ryan Clanton, Ryan Mitchell, Brian Johnson, Maurice Morris, Will Tukuafu, Joe Walker, Brandon Williams, Chris Solomona, Marshaun Tucker, Fenuki Topou, Pat So'oalo, Matthew Harper. Jeremy Gibbs, Terence Scott, Jeremiah Masoli, LaGarrette Blount, Bryson Littlejohn, Zac Clark, Lavasier Tuinei, Isaac Remington, Kyle Long, Tui Talia, Eddie Heard, Jonah Moi, Saladin McCullough.

That's not comprehensive, but these are names of contributors and a lot of standouts. There are also a lot of misses but the ratio is more like 1:2.
