Reply to "Do high academic schools take JUCO tranfers?"

quote:
I have tracked kids that have gone to our local JC's for about 6-years. From my prospective there are three reasons why kids go to the local JC:

1. The weren't qualifiers,
2. They didn't have the financial resources to attend a 4-year schools,
3. Or they wanted the opportunity to play that they were unable to get out of HS.

A significant source of JC players are kids that were not satisfied at thier 4 year school and are looking for a better opportunity and/or can't make the 4 year schools team. Many of these players are academically able to attend "academic schools" when done at the JC.

I am not sure why some "academic" schools with lower profile baseball programs in competitive conferences don't recruit academically qualified JC players to fill obvious gaps in their lineups.
