After JuCo

My son did 2 years at a D2 JuCo.  Towards the end of his sophomore year he was having a stellar season (broke the school record for # of doubles and was batting over .366 (playing 1B)).  He really wasn't reaching out, but he didn't have to.  He had nearly every school in the ODAC talking to him along with a few D2's.

Day after we moved him home, yet another D2 contacted him.  Went on an official visit a week later, had a good visit and a few days later a very nice scholarship offer was on the table.

FWIW - there were quite a few D2/D3 coaches at their games toward the end of the season and those coaches were definitely interested in getting JuCo players - several of his teammates were getting serious interest and offers.  The school my son eventually signed with had 1/3 of their roster from JuCo's.  There may have been some D1 coaches attending as well, but none of them talked to my son.

Depends upon how well the player performs, however if there are no offers or discussions with 4 year programs at the end of the JC sophomore year the player is likely looking for a walk on opportunity somewhere.  A lot of D2/3s will talk to players towards the end of the spring season.    Generally speaking the parent isn't too involved with recruiting once they get to the JC. 

My son played two years at JUCO.  His second year season there were coaches (or someone from the college) at many of their fall games and he had contact from them during the fall. He went on to play third year at DII and then transferred his senior year to NAIA.  (If he plays JUCO, it is most important for your son to be in an academic position to transfer to a four year college.)  Son played JUCO at a program  where the program and coach that had a good reputation in our area and has had many drafted and many more go on to play at a four year school. As stated by Collegenomore, the parent is not really involved in the recruiting at the college level. For that matter, once they are playing college ball (JUCO or 4-year), the parent is not involved in much of anything other than being your son's biggest fan.  The bottom line will be his level of play/talent as to what attention he will receive at that time. 

Good luck to your son!!!

thank you for the responses thus far.  I was hoping we as parents would not have to be too envolved in the process at that level but did not know for sure as most of the attention he has received has been D1 & 2.  His goal is D1 of course, then D2, regardless he has to be wanted there first off.  We are doing homework at the Juco level with respect if kids are being developed for the next level and they are based on what we're seeing.
