How do groups work at JetBlue?

How are JetBlue boarding groups determined? General boarding — also known as Groups B through F, the fifth-ninth groups — is assigned based on your seat. The airline assigns groups to maximize efficiency. Passengers with elite status, premium seats or other benefits will be assigned to one of the earliest groups.

You're more likely to be caught if you try to board with the first group or two. Unless the gate agent is a real jerk, or you are, the worst that can happen is that you'll be told to wait for your own group.

There must be a minimum of 10 people on at least one flight to qualify for a group booking.

If you check in exactly 24 hours ahead of time, you'll usually end up somewhere in the B group. If you have a B group boarding position, the chances are good that you'll still be able to get a window or aisle seat or find 2 seats together if you're traveling with a companion.
