It seems that most successful college baseball programs across levels either take a "home grown" strategy with most recruits coming straight out of HS or lean heavily on the JC transfer/drop-down route. Of course some of this is dictated by the level of academic focus (most high academic schools recruit straight out of HS). I would like to hear thoughts or experiences where there is/was a true hybrid model that is perennially successful - schools that have a significant number roster players and AND contributors from both pools.
