2018 Media Guide: Michael Jordan is one of the top offensive linemen in the Big Ten Conference and now, as a true junior who has started every game the past two years, should start to receive national
recognition as one of the top players at his position … a starter since game No. 1 of his freshman campaign in 2016, Jordan has now started 26 consecutive games for the Buckeyes, including all 14 games for the 2017 Big Ten and Cotton Bowl champions … he was named first-team all-Big Ten in 2017 by the league’s coaches and was named a game “champion” by OSU coaches 11 times, including offensive player of the game honors vs. Illinois … helped the Buckeye offense lead the Big Ten in rushing for a third consecutive season at 243.2 yards per game (17th nationally) … completed a 180-hour internship this summer with Munster Financial.
2017 Media Guide: Michael Jordan is a true sophomore who started all 13 games for the Buckeyes at right guard as a true freshman in 2016 … he was an early enrollee into classes at Ohio State in January 2016 and worked his way into the starting lineup – and stayed – midway through 2016 spring drills … Jordan was the first true freshman to start along the Ohio State offensive line in 23 years, or since Orlando Pace did so in 1994.
2016: Jordan started every game for the Buckeyes and was one of three new starters along the offensive line … he helped the unit rank 11th nationally, and first in the Big Ten, in rushing with 245.2 yards per game … the line was one of three units nationally selected as a finalist for the Joe Moore Offensive Line of the Year Award.
2016 Media Guide: Michael Jordan enrolled at Ohio State in January 2015 and went through spring drills with the team … he was impressive, earning practice time with the No. 1 offensive line midway through drills and sticking with the unit until through the spring game … he enters fall camp as a viable candidate for one of two open positions along the line.
High School: Several months prior to his spring exploits with the Buckeyes, Jordan was an Associated Press Division 1-2 Michigan all-state pick, a first-team Detroit Free Press all-state selection and a member of the Free Press “dream team” offense after a senior campaign in which he averaged six pancake blocks per game – according to published reports – and did not allow a sack … playing for coach Mike Sawchuck, Jordan was a consensus 4-star prospect (Rivals, 247Sports, Scout and ESPN) with Top 10 offensive tackle rankings nationally by Rivals (No. 7) and Scout (No. 10) … he was named to the All-USA Today second-team offense … also wrestled and competed in track and field.
Personal: Is the son of Jacquie and K. Michael Jordan.
