Don't know much about him,  how good is he? Anybody see him play?

[Music City Hog]

@BretBielema: Calling the Hogs.......loud and clear all the way from Smackover, Arkansas! #WoooPig

[Music City Hog]

Don't know much about him,  how good is he? Anybody see him play?

@DannyWest1: New Arkansas commit @jordan10jones is 6-2, 180 and ran a 4.34 at today's camp. He dominated defenders throughout the day. Good get for Hogs.

[Hollywood_HOGan45]

2015 or 2016?

[Wildhog]

So glad we offered him early.  Very nice pick-up for next year.

[Qadi999]

2015 or 2016?

2016

[trashcan maN]

Burned one of the better DBs at camp and followed it up with a behind the back one handed grab. Bielema just walked off the field after the catch.

He also ran a 4.34 today.

[ADavisTheGOAT]

He is lightning fast.

[ckhawgu]

Awesome news! WPS!!!

Just out of curiosity who was the QB delivering the pass?

[The real Hogules]

WPS and welcome aboard the Flagship!

[whosiskid]

I love this. He was already getting looks from major programs and his recruitment was just about to blow up. 6'3 AND a 4.34 forty and great hands. Great way to kick off the 2016 class.

"I'm from Arkansas, so I've always cheered for them" Jones said. "My dad is a huge Arkansas fan, so hands down that's where he's always wanted me to play. I like them a lot."

[redeye]

From his player of the week interview with RD a while back:

I like Arkansas because: it's my home state and I bleed red lol

[MP24]

Just out of curiosity who was the QB delivering the pass?

Several good ones there!

2016 QB Terry Wilson- Del City, Okla. - Has Arkansas State offer, 6-3, 190 range

2016 QB Kasey Ford-Bentonville- Has Louisville offer

2016 QB Brennen Wooten- Marble Falls, Texas- Clemson, Kentucky, TCU and other offers

2016 QB Skylar Thompson-Independence, Mo.

2016 QB-WR Jake Reaves- DeWitt. 6-3, 200

2016 QB Micah Wilson of Tulsa Lincoln ran a 4.75 in the 40. He's dual- threat guy the Hogs like.

According to Otis, he's the nephew of Jeff Savage.

[PygmalionEffect]

Nice!

I think it was RD that said the depth of in-state talent in 2016 could surpass that of 2015 which would be saying a lot.

[redeye]

I remember him saying that also.

[ICEman]

He is lightning fast.

Seems like there was another athlete from Smackover who was fleet of foot. Great Scott, I can't quite remember his name.

[discombobulationist]

I love this. He was already getting looks from major programs and his recruitment was just about to blow up. 6'3 AND a 4.34 forty and great hands. Great way to kick off the 2016 class.

6'3" and a 4.34 40? Is that legal? What do you do to stop that? Julio Jones is 6'3" and ran a 4.39. AJ Green 6'4" and ran a 4.5. If he can play the position half as well as either of those two, we've got something.

[hawgmasta]

This guy could be the next Greg Childs and more.

Two GREAT ARKANSAS commitments the last few days.

[Rocky Mountain Living]

The Best and my favorite Hog players are the in state kids that offer and commit in ONE MOVE.

CBB is the best recruiter we have had in decades.

Jordan has NFL written all over him.

He dominates on film. 10 TDs on 25 receptions.

Please tell me he makes good grades too  :razorback: :razorback: :razorback:

[TheRazorback500]

Cool!

[sickboy]

Please tell me he makes good grades too  :razorback: :razorback: :razorback:

If he didn't... he will now.

[The_Bionic_Pig]

He nearly 6'2 but not 6'3....and yes he from reports was making CB/DB's look silly! !

[secneahog]

He nearly 6'2 but not 6'3....and yes he from reports was making CB/DB's look silly! !

Ok cool. Curious why RD says he's 6'3 ?.

[ricepig]

Ok cool. Curious why RD says he's 6'3 ?.

Probably because he says he is, kids/coaches fudge measurements all the time, as you well know.

[ImHogginIt]

Fo' real bro ? 

[secneahog]

Ah ok. But you know he's not 6'3 makes sense.

[forrest city joe]

I wish all instate players had that kind of love for the hogs. Wps. Congrats and welcome to the family.

+1000. i love kids like this. he wants to stay home and help his home state team build a winning program. congrats and welcome to the family young man.

[Hawgzinbowlz]

Two more years of physical development will change the measureables. We need this kind of talent to stretch the defense.
A Hog at heart.
72 Days and Counting...

" GO HOGS "

[ricepig]

Ah ok. But you know he's not 6'3 makes sense.

Makes sense to who? I'm guessing the poster has seen him in person and knows 6'2" from 6'3", I know I would.

[secneahog]

Ok. Well if it's such a given that coaches stretch the measurements. Why even mention it on a thread talking about him committing?

[thebignasty]

Weird how Davenport has him listed at 6'2" in his article about the commitment.  Who wants to tell him the kid is actually 6'3" because Davenport says he is 6'3'"?

http://www.wholehogsports.com/news/2014/jun/19/jones-become-hogs-first-2016-commitment/

[OTTER]

6'2" or 6'3.  At this point, what difference does it make?!  He's a Hog!!!!

Glad he's a Hog, all 6' 2 1/2" of him.

[hoginla]

According to Otis, he's the nephew of Jeff Savage.

Doesn't Savage coach Smackover?

[thebignasty]

6'2" or 6'3.  At this point, what difference does it make?!  He's a Hog!!!!

No sanity alowed.
