Everyone thinks JUCO eligibility doesn't count because of Diego Pavia. Here's why that's wrong. So the Diego Pavia ruling came out that JUCO eligibility doesn't count for him. His case was unique. So for everyone else, JUCO eligibility still counts. This means you get five years to play four like usual, and JUCO years still count in that total. I say this because there's been a lot of misconceptions that JUCO eligibility doesn't count for anyone, and this may be the case in the future. But I've already seen recruits commit to jucos expecting this rule to be in play and then realize it wasn't. So don't let false info hurt your future. JUCO is still a great path to go Division 1, but if you're planning on that role being in place, then maybe you should consider a different path. Share this with anyone that might not know about this JUCO misconception. Comment JUCO below to get my free guide on how I earned over half a million dollars in scholarships.
