Jeff Jordan is officially leaving Illinois after playing for two seasons. He plans to focus on his studies and leave the game behind him.
“I have come to the point where I’m ready to focus on life after basketball,” Jordan said.
Though the 6-1, 185-pound guard didn’t get an abundant amount of playing time, he was expected to play more in his upcoming junior year. Jordan played 5.3 minutes per game his freshman year, and 8.4 minutes as a sophomore.
Playing in his father’s shadow, it’s hard to compete with the best basketball player of all time. Jeff wasn’t heavily recruited but will be missed by his team
“He brought a great work ethic to the gym,” said Coach Weber. “Jordan will be missed.”
