I agree. His JUCO offer is to an in-town JUCO that made it to the JUCO D2 World Series with a good track record. So his back up plan keeps him close to home (mom loves that) and gives him time to develop more. We had a good conversation about things - his goal as is many kids is to go D1. I told him you were good enough to make a D1 team but the offer was not right. Now head to JUCO, get good grades and work hard, and you may have more schools to pick from in 2 years.
