Falcon Football has first verbal



So, the first verbal is in for Falcon Football.  As you can see above, it's a QB.  Just to review, the stated plan is to take one QB in every class...and as it relates to the rules about recruiting our home area, as Coach said, "we'll go anywhere for an arm."

Which in this case is Jacksonville, FL.  The young man's name is JaCory Jordan and he plays for Trinity Christian.  He's 6'2" *and a half* and about 180.  (Rivals has him as 6'4". Some places online list him as a dual threat QB and some as a PRO QB.  He's not rated on 247 yet but that will change eventually.  He had offers from FIU, USF and Western Kentucky, in addition to Valdosta State, the DII national champions.

There are not a lot of stats on him.  He played as a sophomore and a junior and he is mentioned in media stories with TD passes and his team made the state playoffs.

Program-wise, Trinity Christian is a 7-time champion in Florida 3A.  A teammate of his is headed to Clemson.

One note:  he's a 2021 recruit.  Assuming everyone stays, at that time the QB room will feature Matt McDonald, rSr., second-year players Riley Keller and Tucker Melton, and Jordan.  This assumes there is football this Fall.

Welcome to the Falcons, Jacory.

Thanks for the continued good information on BGSU sports. Just a small correction McDonald is a Redshirt Jr not Sr at least on the spring roster.

Thank you for reading. We need our distractions. He's R-JR this year and will be a R-SR when Jordan gets to campus. Having said that, there might be no football and maybe everyone just holds their eligibility for a year.
