Florida State fans: is there a reason why all the qb’s that come from FSU are tools? This dude might be worse than John Franklin. I guess that is why Malik Henry is an ex player.

Just noticed the new season was up and looking forward to it. I don't know why but I really like this series.

This show is probably the best documentary series. As long as they keep making this I will watch.

Playas play. Shooters shoot. But really, before Henry ever stepped foot on campus I knew he was going to be an issue. He went to like 3 different high schools in 3 years because he didn't like his coaches.

Just about half way through the first episode. Is the coach really this big of a tool or is it some acting? I've heard that Buddy from seasons 1 and 2 claimed some was scripted. Can't confirm or provide any links

I have no idea but it all seems genuine to me. These guys aren’t good enough actors for scripted.

I'm halfway through and this coach Brown is ridiculous and a scam artist. He wants you to think he is some football genius but in reality he is hanging on by the seat of his pants and winning on talent alone. Of his players there are maybe 3 that have a shot at P5 schools at best and that's debatable.

This school has more headcases then EMCC did. It's insane how many of these guys are pulling straight F's in their classes.

If you enjoyed the first season yes. If you haven’t seen the first season, go back and watch EMCC first.

Well you have to keep in mind, this school is allowed to fill up 50 spots with out of state talent. Mississippi is only allowed 8. Makes a big difference on the amount of crazy.

It's pretty good actually. I watched the first 2 seasons and really liked them. I didn't know a new season had started until I saw this thread.

Watched the first 2 episodes last night. Enjoyed them.

Word of warning though, if you ever played football and dreamed of having the opportunities that some of these guys have, you can get pretty frustrated with how stupid some of them are with their decision making.

Just finished and 2 got P5 offers which is pretty much what I thought. I wonder if they are going back to Indy next season as I kind of want to know about season 2.

Just checked their website and 5 signed P5 scholarships but 2 of the names I didn't recognize from the show so I guess they laid low.

The reciever Calvin Jackson signed with Washington State and that wasn't mentioned on the show. Kid had great hands just really small.

Boise State took their back up QB who was terrible and actually got replaced by their 3rd string guy for the Coffeville game:

I just binge watched season 3, it's good, but there are even less likable players in this one. Malik Henry in particular got under my skin. Worth the watch if you liked the first two seasons.

I liked Buckmaster, Bobby (linebacker), Boyd was a tool at first along with Carlos Thompson but it seemed like they grew up. There is no Ollie type personality but I liked these guys. Except for Malik what a tool, but his dad is a crappy person. It’s no excuse, but Malik is a product of his dad.

Yeah, that's fair on Malik. Ollie took awhile for me to warm up to. Clearly if you are back in JUCO after being at a P5 school, something is not going well for you. It's nice to see some of these kids turn around.

FYI - There is a special Episode after the third season that updates you on Buddy, Britney, Ollie and a few other players. It's worth the watch if you liked the first 2 seasons.

Most amazing thing is the Bears are giving John Franklin III a chance and he will be trying to make the team at this year's camp as a reciever.
