big red22 Posted May 17, 2016 Report Share Posted May 17, 2016 We got ourselves a personality on the team. Reminds me of Barkley when he talks, or maybe even Big Easy from the Globetrotter. Listening to him got me pretty pumped up, he has a lot of confidence too! Sorry don't think the podcast is up yet guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fullbacksympathy Posted May 17, 2016 Report Share Posted May 17, 2016 Wow. Great interview. I love the fact that this kid has so many unique cultural perspectives he's been around. That can be really great for team chemistry. Seems like he'll add some confidence to the squad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

49r Posted May 17, 2016 Report Share Posted May 17, 2016 I haven't seen a whole lot of pictures of Jordy, but even I can tell right away there there is a pretty significant difference between him and Jake Hammond. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norm Peterson Posted May 17, 2016 Report Share Posted May 17, 2016 That's Maric-esque, innit? It's we don't need to beg the staff to make sure he's eating enough steak at the training table-esque! Also Maric was 265# and 6'11" as a freshman Jordy was over 300# in high school and has completely transformed his body. He could be 265# if he wants to be. I wouldn't be the least bit surprised to see him in the 245# range by the opening tip of the first game. I thought he was much lighter than the 270# that Robin Washut says he's listed at. I don't see him listed on the Nebraska roster yet, though. Edited: I see it now. It's on the news release, not the roster itself. Again, I thought Jordy had dropped a ton of weight, down to the 230 range (see ESPN profile) and that he'd have to add weight to get back up to play at 265 or 270. But now Rivals is showing him at 270 as is 2/47. They must have updated after our press release because I don't think that's what they had him at before.

hhcmatt Posted May 20, 2016 Report Share Posted May 20, 2016 Jordy and his coach Jacque Rivera on Hail Varsity Starts at the 30:00 minute mark http://www.cornfedsports.com/hailvarsity/2016_05_16.mp3 To me Jordy has the sort of personality I was hoping Walt P would have. He's easily going to be a fan favorite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
