Here is my interview with Jordan….

CSZ - What or who was most influential factor in your decision to commit to Louisville back in June?

JT- The influential factor was all the coaches making me feel like I was at home on my visit.

CSZ – The Palm Beach Post reported that you will not enroll early. Is that simply just wanting to enjoy the rest of your senior year of high school? For the record, I would do the same thing.

JT - At the school I attend, we are not aloud to leave early.

CSZ – When Florida came aggressively at you, at the last minute, were you insulted that you became a priority late or did it make your decision harder?

JT - I was pretty insulted.

CSZ – Who is your favorite Artist and what is currently your most played song?

JT - My favorite song is In case you didn’t know. But my favorite artist is drake.

CSZ – How do you feel about snow? You might see a little in the Louisville winters.

JT -  I have never seen snow so I’m ecstatic

CSZ – Do you enjoy throwing or running for a touchdown?

CSZ – Do you interact with Lamar or Jawon at all?

JT - No, I do not interact with them.

CSZ – Describe what it means to you and your teammates to win the Palm Beach County High School Player of the Year?

JT - It was truly a blessing from the man upstairs to even be in the running for this. I could not do it without my team and coaches.

CSZ – This is a standard CSZ question …. Do you think a hot dog is a sandwich?

JT - Yes. I do think a hot dog is a sandwich

CSZ – Do you feel that the Petrino offense will be tough to learn? Or is it close to Coach Kresser’s?
