<span style="font-family: ’times new roman’, times, serif;">In an attempt to distract myself from America’s current events I’ve been doing a lot of thinking about former Minnesota preps that went on to succeed at one of the hardest and most unique levels of college football: JUCOs. While we actually have a pretty successful tradition of junior college athletes from the past decade come from the Land of 10,000 Lakes, there are no cumulative guides or lists, so I thought I would go-ahead and try to create my own All-Minnesota JUCO Team from the past 10 seasons. MN preps have historically committed to a select number of JUCOs, so this list included RCTC, NDSCS, Iowa Western, Iowa Central, Central Lakes, Minnesota State Fergus Falls, Ridgewater, Fon du Lac, Vermillion CC, Itasca CC, Mesabi Range, MN West, but there are a few other random JUCOs spread throughout the country that have hosted MN boys under their gridiron spotlights. Because most junior college websites do not go further back than 2013 with their rosters and lack an organized history of where their players have signed over the years, and their are no national tracking databases for JUCO signings, this took some work, so please forgive me if I have forgotten anyone (especially from 2010-2013). However, I’m happy with what I did find, so I am pleased to present to you this Minnesota All-JUCO team featuring former MN prep studs at every position on the gridiron. Based on a combination of junior college and four-year institution success, this list features athletes from the 2010 season through last fall. I hope you enjoy. Thanks for reading! </span>

<span style="font-family: ’times new roman’, times, serif;"><em>HM</em>: <strong>Ricardo Johnson III </strong><em>(Cretin Derham Hall/San Bernardino Valley JC/Ohio Northern/St. Olaf College) </em>6’2, 205 lbs. I am a total homer for putting <strong>RJIII </strong>on the list as I graduated with him at St. Olaf in 2019, but <strong>Johnson III </strong>is a legitimate player who was on a JUCO tear before an injury derailed his first JUCO season. As a senior in HS he was rated as the #6 overall player in MN in the c/o 2014, the #47 overall DT QB in 2014 in America, and was an All-Conference player. <strong>Johnson III </strong>received a Hawaii offer as a freshman in high school, but bet on himself and went the JUCO route after his senior year - heading to sunny California for San Bernardino Valley junior college. There - according to St. Olaf’s website - he "played in four games as a freshman quarterback and captain of the Wolverines, named “Offensive Player of the Week” in his first collegiate game... Completed 45-of-88 (51.1%) for 579 yards and four touchdowns with a pair of rushing touchdowns." He then committed to Ohio Northern, helped them to a DIII national playoff berth, and then became a bit lost with football and returned home to MN. It was there he almost lost his love for football, but St. Olaf came calling, and I was lucky enough to call <strong>Johnson III </strong>my teammate and captain, as he is a helluva person and not a bad QB to boot. He as awarded MIAC Offensive POTW twice, and was an All-MIAC HM performer as a senior. <a href="https://www.hudl.com/video/3/1833466/5721b155c124573b5447b39b">ESPN2 Nationally Televised Game CDH</a> <a href="https://www.hudl.com/video/3/1833466/5721baad041ddc1b004bb832">vs. West LA CC</a></span>
