In this episode, Gannon interviews Bryce, Jack, and Cam. All three of them graduated from Highland Community College in Freeport, Illinois while playing baseball at the JUCO level. Highland is a D2 JUCO baseball program that many people are recruited to play at. However, throughout this episode Gannon asks the three of them questions about their JUCO experience. They were asked to describe the difference between the "JUCO Route" and what a "JUCO Bandit" is. Then, they dove into their favorite memories on and off the field at the JUCO level. After discussing those memories, they gave an in-depth look at what JUCO offers compared to NAIA, D3, D2, and D1. JUCO is an experience that not everyone will have, but those that do will never forget that special route that they took. Ultimately, the best advice that was given throughout the entirety of this episode was that if you want to play the sport in college, do everything in your power to ensure you continue playing that sport. Live in the moment, instead of worrying about your possible future regrets. Sports do not last forever, and Bryce, Jack, and Cam will explain that thoroughly. Bryce was an OF, more specifically LF during his time with the Highland Cougars. Cam and Jack were PO's and incredible motivators to the hitters as well. If you are a student in high school, or even a parent of a high schooler... Quit forcing a four-year university onto your children right out of high school. The degree you get is the same piece of paper, just a different logo on it. Bryce, Jack, and Cam all have their Associates Degree and are now after their Bachelor's Degree with their new schools. To all the JUCO Bandits out there, we hope you enjoyed this one! We also hope if you are debating the JUCO Route that this episode helps you understand, IT IS THE WAY TO GO!
