Oklahoma Sooners included in top 10 for Union CB Devon Jordan
The Oklahoma Sooners are hoping to make a statement in the state of Oklahoma in the 2024 recruiting class. Although they missed out on Xadavien Sims, the Sooners are hoping to pull in a commitment from Xavier Robinson, Danny Okoye, and Andy Bass.
Another player from the Sooner State that has been on their radar is 2024 prospect Devon Jordan. Jordan is a composite three-star player but is considered a four-star cornerback by Rivals and is the No. 4 player in the state.
Jordan included the Oklahoma Sooners in his top 10, along with Alabama, Miami, Texas A&M, TCU, Oklahoma State, Kansas State, Iowa State, Missouri, and Vanderbilt.
The Union High star has elite speed and quickness that he uses to his advantage in coverage. He’s able to run with any wide receiver and displays a fantastic ability to break on the football. He’s a physical and willing tackler on the edge who comes downhill in a hurry in the running game or against wide receiver screens. Jordan displays good ball skills and looks back to find the ball while keeping locked on the wide receiver.
Jordan also displays an elite kick return ability. His speed allows him to get to the outside in the return game and run away from the kick coverage unit.
The in-state prospect was a visitor for the ChampU BBQ, giving Jay Valai an opportunity to really move the needle.
Still, the Sooners will have to overcome challenges from Oklahoma State and TCU for the athletic Devon Jordan.
