2785801, FAU actually has *zero* fifth year players.

They're 148th nationally in experience.

Outside of Matt Bradley at SDSU and Jordan Miller at Miami, there are no fifth year players. They're *generally* more experienced than the pack, but there's not an *obvious* trend there. UConn and FAU are actually both less experienced than half the field.

But you're right re: why players will choose to find a home that isn't just a blue blood or a giant high-major team. Some kids will want to be part of that, other kids will want to be part of their own thing, others still will want to insure they're the Guy at their school. The beauty of NIL is that there are opportunities for all these different types of dudes to find paths anywhere.
