Coming for Irish Invasion.

Made the Final 5 at the Opening Regional in Atlanta with LaBryan Ray and Got Open.

I'm really glad you made this profile. So I watched the Atlanta Regional DL vs. OL video last night and thought that Drew was one of the best looking prospects. I thought he flashed very good quickness off the edge.

 

[Irish YJ]

I like the guy too. Gonna have to catch a game this season.

 

[Luckylucci]

Should be noted he has BC, Duke, and NW offers. Visited NW in the middle of April.

Fun fact, was at the Clemson/ND game last year with "his boy" Robert Beal.

Yeah, I saw him when watching LaBryan Ray's highlight after the event. I like the idea of the 6-2 240lb heat seeker coming off the end. I don't care how he sheds blocks, I don't care how he drops into zone coverage, I care that he sees the QB as an orange cone to get to.

Something else I like about him is according to my 1 sec. optical algorithm, he has the perfect offer list for ND to enter at #1 while having confidence in his abilities on the field as well as in the classroom.

 

[Irish#1]

In watching the video above, he doesn't have that elite first step, but he seems to have a burst on the second step and is up to full speed pretty quickly. Some specific training can improve the first step.

I like Lucky, like that academics apparently won't be an issue.

Scout: Look for Georgia's No. 5 DE Drew Jordan to trim his list of schools down soon

So sounds like ND waited too long or didn't identify Jordan quick enough. Was supposed to be at II but committed to Duke on that date. His name is getting mentioned a lot around the web for his performance at The Opening.

I'll be bummed if he and Jack Sears ball out against ND playing for the Blue Devils.

 

[Luckylucci]

Head scratcher for me too

 

[BobbyMac]

Committed to Duke last month on the day he was supposed to be at Irish Invasion then proceeds to make Final 5 at the Opening. ND shouldn't have waited. This kid's the poster child for an ND recruit. But he did choose Duke... couldn't get any more flipable than that come Sept 24th.

[Irish Man3]

The guys at ISD have been raving about this kid for quite some time. I'm not sure what the hold up is. He's a better WSE prospect than those we have a shot with now, minus the kid from UCLA.

 

[Luckylucci]

Well.......you know.......... I mean........ND has plenty of pass rushers, right?

 

[BobbyMac]

With the possibility of Elko getting the DC job, I wonder if he had a good relationship with Drew Jordan? He offered him at WF. There was a time when Drew Jordan was outperforming Paschal at the Opening, he made the Final 5 on D. Oddly, ND never offered. He's been a Duke commit since June, he committed the day he was supposed to be at Irish Invasion. So he had interest in ND at one point.

I'd throw an offer at him. Here's his latest 247 profile and Sr Film.

[ThePiombino]

Yes pls. Virtually any WDE would do, but we could do A LOT worse than this kid.
