Message: [QUOTE="JoeCollege, post: 178166, member: 189"] I'm hoping that this situation with JC transfers early in HCDM's career plays out as well or better than one from early in the P tenure. P brought in 2 JUCO's. At least one was from Hinsdale CC in Mississippi, I think Eric Downing, recruited by P&D out of Jersey. He went on to a nice NFL career with the Chiefs as a third round pick. I want to say the other fella was Simpkins but I'm not sure. And it's driving me nuts as I am convinced there were 2 kids that P took a chance on, were non qualifiers, and he squirreled them away in the JUCO ranks. They blew up there and some heavy hitters came a-calling, but P's persistence and initial faith paid off. [/QUOTE]
