continues his climb up the rankings in this latest update and he’s moved into the top five for overall prospects and has remained the top guy at his position. Union has definitely had a great run of defensive backs over the last five to ten seasons. They have quite a few in the 2024 class that will be playing college ball and Jordan is the best of the bunch. Jordan is an outstanding athlete that has continued to improve his game on the defensive side of the ball. As we get closer to the playoffs, we won’t be surprised to see Union take advantage of Jordan’s athletic ability and start putting him in positions to make plays on offense and in special teams. We’ve already seen him be an impact player in special teams this season earlier this year and he had a massive impact.

has absolutely blown up this offseason. He’s gone from a prospect with promise to getting offers from just about every major college football program in the country. He had an outstanding offseason and there’s no reason why he won’t have a major impact for the Redhawks this fall. Jordan is the next marquee prospect to come out of Union. He reminds us a lot of former Union standouts like Tre Brown and Jayden Rowe. Lockdown corners, some of the best in the state, but because they were always one of the best players on the football field, Union got creative with how they used them. We anticipate that Jordan will get some time on offense as well.

has vaulted up to the top spot among defensive backs and is now considered one of the top overall prospects in the state’s 2024 class. Jordan has had a very successful offseason in regards to his recruiting as just about every college has extended an offer to the Union star. And Jordan is the next Union defensive back to earn that status as one of the top guys in the state and the Redhawks have produced a few of them over the last ten years. And after watching Jordan this offseason while he played in various 7v7 tournaments and then in the spring, the athleticism is off the charts. We’re excited to see what he can potentially bring to Union as a game-changing wide receiver on offense. But when it comes to Jordan as a prospect, he is a cornerback all the way and has just about as much momentum as any prospect in the state’s 2024 class. He’s established himself as one of the best.

has had an unbelievable offseason as he’s become one of the more sought after 2024 prospects in Oklahoma’s 2024 class. He has offers from all over the country but he makes this breakdown not for his ability on defense, but what he showed on offense. Jordan was burning opposing defensive backs at the wide receiver position and was arguably Union’s top playmaker at the wide receiver position on Friday. More times than not, Jordan is going to be the best athlete on the field this fall so it makes sense that Union is going to try to utilize him in as many ways as possible. That worked well in 2016 when they won a state championship and star cornerback Tre Brown ended up being a threat at receiver and in the return game.

following a breakout junior season. Around this time last year, we started following Jordan after watching him playing 7v7 in the offseason with his travel team 918 Elite. It was pretty easy to see a lot of potential there as he was one of the absolute best ball hawks we saw during the 2022 offseason. He seemed to always find his way to the football and would make a play. Jordan then enjoyed plenty of success for Union during the 2022 season and he recently witnessed his recruitment start to take off. Union loses some good pieces in the secondary but with Jordan and our next prospect returning, the Redhawks should be just fine on the defensive side of the ball.

has been pretty consistent among the other defensive backs in the class, but he made a big jump as an overall prospect in this recent update. After checking him out during the offseason in 7v7 and various spring drills, plus seeing him in person a few times this fall, it’s clear that Jordan is a cornerback on the rise within the state’s 2024 class. And Union’s secondary is pretty impressive as is. The mix of 2023 and 2024 standouts they have on the backside of their defense is very impressive. But Jordan is following the path that 2023 DB
