I have always found it a bit fascinating how few football playing JUCO schools there are in Ohio. I believe Hocking College is the only team active currently?

Here's a list I found: https://www.ncsasports.org/football/junior-colleges

Looks like there are a lot in Mississippi, the Great Plains (Kansas, Iowa etc.) or out in Texas and California. CA and TX make sense given the high populations and number of potential players available. Looks like a few pockets in the Northeast, too with PA and NY having a decent number of programs

Just curious as to why JUCO football is not really a thing in Ohio. Likely a Board of Regents and funding call?


We have a large amount of D1 schools, could that play into it also?


It probably has more to do with the large number of D-3 schools in the state. Compare that to California, which has few D-3 schools and a large number of junior colleges. I'm not sure D-3 programs have produced the same results in terms of transfers, but they do provide playing time for players who are not FBS/FCS ready. Bo Hardy was an example of a player who made that move. The portal may provide even more opportunities for these kids.

That was my next guess. We have a lot of football teams in Ohio.

Who?


Saw this on an Ohio Bobcats Facebook page earlier today-likely the same player:

"Welcome QB Delaney Crawford to Ohio Football!
Delaney comes to us from the University of Virginia. Delaney's father, Keith, was a Bobcat gridder in the 1980s. Delaney is wearing his father's number in the photos."


Ohio-The State University

I like his potential at QB.

He certainly fits OUr offense.

That gives us 5 QBs.

Should be some decent competition.

That high school film of him in Pistol was scary🔥. Definitely putting pressure on existing QBs. It will be an interesting summer and I love it.

Another solid pickup in the portal. Gotta love that 10.55 speed.

On his twitter post it says WR not QB.

This film makes me think OUr offense can get super creative:

Tommy Frazier immediately came to my mind.
