not gonna lie, i always thought you were like 50-something    I played against him a time or two as well before I hung the sneakers up.  I wasn't a bad player, but I wasn't getting any taller.

Heck I thought you were at least 60. Primarily because I often relate to your posts which I assumed made you an “old head” (as my kids like to say) like me.

😁  I actually take that as a compliment

i was raised old school on a small farm with daily farm chores.  Dad was a brick mason and on weekend side jobs I was tagging along at 8 years old being his labor.  
when it came to sports I was raised and taught Defense leads to offense…..  
let just say I’m gritty.  

oh and to be exact I’m 43 today.

I think his brother JAred played there briefly and then both transferred to Ozen

Yes his brother did play at the high school level but I am pretty sure after Jordan s 8th grade year he went to Ozen for his complete h s career

I honestly can't remember.  What's crazy is it's been almost ten years since he graduated.  Doesn't feel like nearly that long ago.  When he was in/out at HF I had just moved out here, so I didn't follow them much, and don't remember the details.  

[mfd814]

Agreed. Left after 8th grade for Ozen.

Ahhh.  Wasn’t sure and couldn’t remember.  Yeah he can’t count if he never played varsity basketball there.

if Jordan would’ve stayed the hunters would’ve played one year with Darius Riley, NFL player Cam Malveux, and the other 6’6 guy. Think they could’ve made some serious noise Jordans freshman year.

Brian Delord was pretty good.  He played at Lamar for a bit.
