JUCO recruits

How do you tell if a recruit is a JUCO recruit? I don't see any indicator of it.

Under their name it should say somewhere (JUCO:SO) or (JUCO:JR).

But there is no indication if they're just a plain old high school senior?

They won't have the juco sign if they are a high school prospect.

To be honest, even if you are a major program, it's not a bad idea to recruit JUCO's. I used to never recruit JUCO's in previous NCAA games because it wasn't much difference between them and high school players. However, now there is a difference and JUCO's can come in and help right away. I'm a 6 star school now, but I managed to sign two very good JUCO receivers who came in at an 87 and 86 overall. Because I'm already pretty set at WR, I redshirted those guys so they should both be rated over 90 as redshirt JRs and instant starters for a 6 star program. You only can play them for 2 years but once you are a major school, most of your recruits sit for at least 2 years anyway, so they end up playing the same amount of time. But I only do that for the really good JUCO players. Also they are easier to recruit since the CPU normally don't target them until late.
