From the Dallas Morning News in 2005:

http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/spt/highschools/schoolday/stories/111005dnspoboyshoops.775ee42.html

This frontcourt would be a tailor's nightmare
Plano coach Tom Inman said senior swingman Joseph Fulce is built to make plays others just can't. The versatile Fulce, a Texas A&M recruit, is 6-8. His sleeve length is 42 inches, and his legs are so long they stretch almost all the way up to his ribs.

Fulce, who averaged 16.8 points and 7.7 rebounds last season, is the cousin of 1991 Plano East graduate Jimmy King, a member of Michigan's Fab Five. King paid Fulce a huge compliment last season when he said Fulce is more skilled all-around than he was at the same age.

"I was kind of shocked," Fulce said. "It's more motivation. ... I just want to be myself and make my own game.

"I can only get better at this point."

Fulce, who dealt with tendinitis in his left knee this summer, plays on the wing because there's plenty of size at Plano.


And June 2006:

http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/spt/colleges/topstories/stories/060806dnspotamusignee.181db16c.html

Plano forward Joseph Fulce, a Texas A&M signee, will attend a prep school in Virginia this fall rather than begin his college career with the Aggies.

Fulce, who will attend Massanutten Military Academy in Woodstock, Va., said the decision came down to academic and athletic reasons. He still must get a high score on the SAT to qualify at A&M, and instead of taking the college entrance exam again this month, he will take it at prep school, he said.

"It [Massanutten] will help me prepare a little more for college and help me grow up better as a person before I get down there [Texas A&M]," Fulce said.

Fulce, who is 6-8, 200 pounds, said he also will try to bulk up five or 10 more pounds to get ready to play small forward in the Big 12 conference. Fulce recovered from midseason surgery to help lead Plano to the Class 5A state championship.

Fulce said he is still committed to playing in 2007-08 for A&M even though NCAA guidelines allow him to accept a scholarship from another school.

You can transfer after one year at a JUCO, if you would have been eligible to play at a Division 1 school coming out of high school. He was not eleigible at Texas A&M, so he went to a prep school. Presumably he would have been eligible this year at New Orleans, so he will be eligible after one year of JC. Jerome Whitehead and Lloyd Walton were one year JUCO players.

ahh.. for all matters scholarship count related, check out the handy dandy muscoop scholarship table: http://www.muscoop.com/index.php?page=8

Right - now that we have more details I've updated the table to include Fulce.  He joins the 08 class, and has 3 years of eligibility left. (thus taking one from 08, but giving 2011 an extra)  So here's the scholies we have left:
08-09: 1 (Fulce, N Williams committed)
09-10: 3 (E Williams committed)
10-11: 3
11-12: 4
