Eric the Red Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 Player: Jordan Congdon Hometown: San Diego, Ca Position: Kicker Height: 5’10” Weight: 165 40 time: 4.9 Visit Date: 10/2/04 Scholarships offered: Nebraska, San Diego St. Favorites: Nebraska Rankings/Stars: Rivals: #2/** Insiders: NR/*** Assessing the talent: Top notch talent, with a big leg. Even Arapostathis is his personal trainer. He himself is an ex-kicker and says this kick has a good shot at making it to the next, next level. He was also invited to play in the Army All-Star game. Hit a 44 yarder as a junior and 47 yarder as a sophomore. Odds of becoming a Cornhusker: 85% Kickers are always offered late, but the Huskers got in early and offered. The Huskers only competition was San Diego St. I believe he will hold through and become a Husker. This is an easy one. Quote Link to comment
DaveH Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 Sweet. I hope this guy is the real thing. We are missing the kicking ability some of our past kickers have had. Quote Link to comment
Redout Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 What happenes with Dyches? Quote Link to comment
Benard Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 What happenes with Dyches? It's hard to say. I wonder if he will try to win the position or transfer or what. I think alot depends on this year. If sandro struggles and he comes in and gets his job back then he might do well next year. It's hard to say how good this kicker is coming in aswell.

gamecocks Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 I read in an article somewhere that he has been able to connect on a couple of 60 yarders in practice. That would really help our offense and their play calling entering the 35 yard line next year. Quote Link to comment

Blackshirt Posted October 12, 2004 Share Posted October 12, 2004 Couple interesting facts I did not know.. -He attends the same HS Jordan Adams did, who helped convince him NU was the best choice -He may also serve double duties for NU as a punter Congdon (STILL) happy to be a Husker http://www.signonsandiego.com/sports/preps...11p-replay.html Quote Link to comment
Benard Posted October 12, 2004 Share Posted October 12, 2004 Anyone think he will beat out dyches next year? Quote Link to comment
gamecocks Posted October 12, 2004 Share Posted October 12, 2004 Anyone think he will beat out dyches next year? I think that he will be given every opportunity to compete for both the starting place kicker and punting duties next year. Quote Link to comment

Think about it htough, if Congdon doesn't beat him out, we wasted a scholorship on akicker to sit for 3 years. Quote Link to comment

Missed 3 low 40's and dyches hits a mid 40's. Quote Link to comment
Eric the Red Posted November 7, 2004 Author Share Posted November 7, 2004 Maybe help is on the way....Congdon had a 53-yard field goal and another in his last game Quote Link to comment
HuskerBob Posted November 7, 2004 Share Posted November 7, 2004 Maybe we cud do a swap out... send sandra to highschool to finish the yr and bring Jordan in... yeh yeh lets do it!!!! jor-dan jor-dan jor-dan Quote Link to comment
SeaOfRed Posted November 7, 2004 Share Posted November 7, 2004 He's definitely more highly touted than the Browns were... I hope he works out even better than Josh or Kris ever did. I can definitely see Jordan coming in and contributing right away. Quote Link to comment
