One of my sons and some of my players played D2 in California. There are a few schools that are notorious for bringing in large numbers in the Fall, many as preferred walk-ons. It can get bloody. Also, most schools in the two D2 conferences go heavy after JC transfers. If you are an incoming freshman and you are not a relative stud, you can get thrown to the back of the line time after time, year after year. Do your best to understand where the player fits. This applies everywhere but particularly with these circumstances.
This❗️ Spot on.
