Flood's had success with graduate transfers...

Marsh, Dill, Tsimis, Turzilli, Lewis, Toler. Why doesn't he do the same with JC players? They'll have one extra year of eligibility and it would help immensely in the DB position.

JUCO's have a problem qualifying to get into RU.

 

[RUich]

wonder how many qualified transfers there are in a given year?

Do you mean John Tsimis? He's not a graduate transfer. He's a 2013 class recruit from Bergen Catholic.

This bit I think the government made some changes with JUCO's that will allow more to meet our criteria. Think RBNY posted about it a few months back.

I think pretty much every team is doing it now. It's not a Rutgers thing.

A graduate transfer has 4 years of playing experience at a FBS school. A JUCO transfer has 1 or 2 years experience at a Junior College. Big difference. I'm not saying that a grad trans will always be better, but high level experience means a lot. I prefer the grad transfers.

They're one-year rentals, but for the most part you're getting a known quantity.

I'd be willing to bet the grad transfer would be better than the JC transfer at least 7/10 times, but the problem with the grad transfer is you're only getting one year. Plus I imagine there are fewer of them to choose from.
