The narrative is that Juco players are the best value right now. Got to pay big for proven portal OL. Every recruit is now having their Return On Investment measured closely since we have an vague salary cap.
I don’t know about the NIL / value parts so I can’t comment there
I’m not a huge JUCO guy nowadays (shout out Spots) but a plus I see with the OL guys is that you skip ahead a little in their physical development. The body and athleticism might be more predictable when you’re looking at a 19 year old
I don’t think it’s a viable strategy to rely on it long term. But certainly a resource to tap into. I think Izavion Miller from last class out of JUCO has really come along since the Cal game. If we can keep getting developmental OTs from HS like Edwin or House in this class, Tyler Johnson in last class, then we will be alright.
But I think I’d still prefer top HS guys

Worth also mentioning that JUCO S Laquan Robinson commits today

Gotta layer depth. Portal or Juco is the way to go for that.

By now, I thought 
In other news, JLee seems to be hearing 4* S Jalewis Solomon may be rejoining the class. Prediction potentially incoming

No clue. Obviously Beamer is in trouble there

JGT also said something like, expect flip/commit action this weekend that is (almost) sure to satisfy you.

I think he’s jumping to VT while he still can.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say Robinson is one of our most important recruits. We lose both safeties and the back ups haven't been very good. Robinson will have a good opportunity to start.

Wonder if that’s Waller

I don’t disagree. Robinson had legit offers

We've had a couple of Juco dbs that didn't pan out. Marquis Gilbert, the Torrance kid a few years ago and maybe another I'm forgetting. How does this kid stack up to them? Is he better than what we've signed recently, or is he just a placeholder? Never seen the kid play, so I'm just asking.

Speaking of, have you noticed how big brother has been getting a lot of playing time, wonder if that has a little bit to do with baby brother as well, 2025 is fast approaching.

Solomon is showing as safety, but he played corner in HS, is he going to get a look there, we could use another CB in this class, as it stands now, more than another safety. I thought I heard talk he would get a look there first??
