I finished watching the Docuseries "Last Chance U" on Netflix and I thought it was great!

UTEP recruited 2 players who signed with the Junior College in the film. Both players even took visits here to El Paso last year before going the JC route. One is now committed to Louisville.

Also, one of the main stars of the show signed with UAB, so we could possibly see him in our conference over the next 2 years if he makes it academically.

There are a lot of flaws in the Program/Teamm, but as a DocuSeries, I thought that it was great to watch. It really felt like all-access with-out the typically staged drama that sometimes happens in reality TV.
 
Awesome show. I watched the first episode and I ended up glued to the TV for like 4 hours watching all of the episodes. I wish we could get Ollie. Do you know the names of those 2 players we recruited and went to that JC???
 
The two players were:

They were high school teammates who visited UTEP together. They weren't featured much during the series, but they were just Freshmen, so they might appear more next year if there is a 2nd season.

According to the last sentence in this article, Jallow has recommitted to Louisville: http://247sports.com/Article/Last-Chance-U-Where-are-they-now-46592820

Great show! Hope they do another series next season.
