Oregon's Jordan Bishop

 

 

 

 
Posted by Picasa


A tale of two Jordan’s…Oregon’s Elite Wide Receivers! Bishop catches his first offer!
Fall is here and High School Football in Oregon is already headed for the Playoffs in the coming Weeks. The West Salem Titans have had a great run and have a Top 5 rated Offense and Defense all year. The team features many weapons on Offense and Defense. The Titans already know where they are headed….the Playoffs! With the Central Valley Conference League Championship sewed up and a First Round bye the Titans future is fairly secure while other teams battle it out for survival in Oregon’s super tough 6A Division.

While the Titans success has been earned by many talented players a very “Big” part of that success is a result of the talents of Wide Receiver phenom Jordan Bishop. Many insiders believe Bishop to be the best kept secret in this part of the Country.

At the same time Lincoln High’s Jordan Polk is not as his recruitment has happened with the fanfare and Bravado that we have become accustomed to seeing. Polk has been offered by several big time schools and has verbally committed to the Washington Huskies. The Portland Native Polk made a name for himself at Summer Camps, Nike Combines, and SPARQ Events as early as his Junior year.

But down the Valley in Salem Jordan Bishop was focusing on becoming one of the elite Football Players as well as a Premier Track and Field Athlete. As soon as football ends he laces up the track spikes. In fact so much so that Jordan Bishop at 6’3” and 200 pounds is one of the Elite 400 Meter men in Oregon as well as a well as a Top Rated Long and High Jumper. Last year Bishop was the highest scoring athlete at the State Track Meet. He finished:

High Jump: 6’10 ¼”: Second in State
Long Jump: 23’6”: Second in State
400 Meters: 49.56 sec Fourth in State

Bishop is also a First Team All League Basketball Player that can elevate and Dunk at will over his opponents. From a Strength perspective he reps 250 on the Bench, Squats 355, and Power Cleans 305 pounds…a direct result of Titan’s Coach Shawn Stanley and his Strength Training Regimen.

So how does this all translate to Bishop and his ability to be an elite Receiver? Well having watched him I can tell you that at 6’3 and as solid as he is he can make it a very long evening for any corner back. He is also known for catching a very high percentage of balls thrown to him and he can really utilize his leaping ability in doing so. He is fast, quick, has break away speed, and his size is something that can not be coached. There are few corners in High School or College that will be able to match up to him. He is also an All League Corner Back.

At this point in the Season Bishop has just received an offer to play for Coach Glanville and the PSU Vikings and he is very honored. “I am going up for a visit to meet the Coaches and see the program. That would be a good fit for my abilities! So I am definitely considering their offer!”

Still many insiders believe that Bishop’s Commitment to Track and Field and the fact that he has never participated in any Collegiate Summer Camp or Combine event have him wrongfully off many D1 Recruiting Boards. He spent a great deal of last Summer at the Track and Field Regional’s and Nationals while many recruiters asked “where’s Bishop?”

I asked him what makes him a D1 prospect.

“My size is an obvious advantage. I am strong and I can block very well. But I have to say my ability to Leap and react to the ball set me apart. I will catch anything that is thrown my way!” says Bishop.

I asked highly respected Coach Stanley about Jordan’s Future as a Collegiate Player. He offered this.

“I don't know it all, but I have played and coached in college, I have
coached players that have played in the NF Land Jordan Bishop is hands
down the best athlete that I have ever coached, period. If he is not a
Division 1 receiver then I will never coach one because he is the best I
will ever get.”

Bishop’s 40 time has never been widely documented but he has turned in Electronic SPARQ times in the middle 4’s and did run a 4.55 at Oregon State recently.

“I have NEVER seen anyone catch him from behind. There will be some recruiters two years from now that say "how did we not offer that kid?" Stanley added.

“Coach Riley from OSU came to see me last week at school. I would love to be a Beaver!” said Bishop. Other schools on the top of Jordan’s list are University of Oregon, Arizona State, Arizona, Boise State, and he has some interest in Hawaii and Colorado.

It is of Note that the West Salem Titans lost a one point game 29-28 to Oregon’s #1 rated Lake Oswego; a game that they led most of the way. If both teams win through the playoffs they will meet again in the State Championship on December 8th at Reser Stadium. “We want them again for sure. That would be awesome…but we need to earn that first!”

So Coaches and Recruiters don’t say “I never knew”. Here is your chance. The tale of the two Jordan’s is unfolding but the final chapters are not yet written.

Congratulations to Jordan Bishop for your offer from PSU and to the West Salem Titans on all their success! Have a great season.

Recruitment in Oregon at the HS level not allowed and than there is this!

High-schoolers or free agents?
Transfers - Top prep athletes in Oregon are switching campuses and uniforms, putting a spotlight on the competitive practice
Wednesday, September 26, 2007
JERRY ULMER The Oregonian
Sam Buckingham played football for Lake Oswego High School last year. Now he's at Portland's Grant High School.
Zach Young played at Lakeridge last year. He has slid over to Lake Oswego.
Travis Dunn played at North Salem and Tyrell Fortune at Parkrose last year. They've landed at Lakeridge.
High school athletes have moved from school to school for years. But the changes in uniform involving some of the state's most prominent football players has ignited a debate among parents and coaches.
Young's transfer is at the center of the storm. In the third game of the season, Lake Oswego beat two-time state champion Jesuit, ending the Beaverton school's 28-game winning streak. Young scored two touchdowns, and Lake Oswego supplanted Jesuit as the state's No. 1 high school football team.
Top college athletes have to sit out a year when they move from school to school. But the association that governs high school sports in Oregon allows local school districts to set rules for transfers.
They vary. Beaverton, for example, requires students to attend their neighborhood school unless both principals agree to a transfer. Lake Oswego, by contrast, allows transfers between its two high schools for myriad reasons.
"I understand that doing what's in the best interest of the kids is the most important thing, and every kid's situation is going to be unique," said Lakeridge football coach Rob Kool, whose team lost Young to its city rival and has a backfield featuring two incoming transfers. "But it can't be as easy as jumping around at will or at a parent's whim."
Superintendent Bill Korach said the Lake Oswego School District doesn't allow transfers for athletic reasons. "That said, we accept the parents' word for whatever the reason is," he added.
After Young's transfer, Lakeridge coaches from several sports requested a forum with Korach.
"I don't know how you change the policy," Lake Oswego football coach Steve Coury said. "No one said anything about it until now. Zach came over, and it's made it a big issue." "Who am I to stop that?"
Zach Young grew up playing football on the other side of the lake. He was a Lakeridge kid all the way.
He started playing for Kool as a fourth-grader and became close with the coach's son, quarterback Robbie Kool. He and Robbie Kool made a dynamic backfield combination for the Pacers the last two seasons and were looking ahead to a big senior year.
Those plans changed in the spring, though, when Young's parents, Tony and Lynda, made a decision.
"We figured that Lake Oswego would be a good place for Zach to land, and just as good scholastically," Tony Young said. "It was a tough decision, because it was his last year. But he's a grown boy now. And we just decided that's the best for our son."
Cutting his Lakeridge ties and telling the Kools wasn't easy for Zach Young.
"They're still my friends, my family. I'm always going to love them," he said. "But I had to make a switch, so I'm over here."
The news stung not only the Kools, but also much of the Lakeridge team.
"But at the same time," Rob Kool said, "he's a great kid and a phenomenal athlete. And if his family views that it's in the best interest of Zach and his future, then who am I to stop that?"
Young became probably the most prominent example of a football player transferring between the schools. Two of Young's Lake Oswego teammates -- senior receiver Anthony Culver and senior linebacker Ross Ehren -- also have made the switch.
Over the years, both schools have been hurt and benefited from the policy. According to Korach, though, the policy is bigger than athletics.
"You can't insert your judgment for the judgment of the parent," Korach said. "Can that be abused? Yes. But we believe the greater good of the district is in believing our parents and trusting our parents to be honest with us." OSAA has stipulations
Under the Lake Oswego district's rules, Young was able to transfer without moving. Even in districts with more stringent transfer guidelines, there are few restrictions on students whose parents move so they can attend another school.
In Oregon, provided a high school student meets a district's admissions criteria, only two rules can prevent a transfer student from being eligible for athletics immediately, according to the Oregon School Activities Association.
Rule 8.6.5, added to the OSAA handbook in 2004, says that a transfer is not permitted to play for the new school for one year if the school has a coach who coached the athlete in an out-of-season sport. Also, a transfer must sit for one year if "undue influence" -- or recruiting -- is proved.
Both exceptions have come into question this year at Lakeridge. Not only did Tyrell Fortune (also a state champion wrestler) and twin brother Tyree come over from Parkrose, but so did former Parkrose assistant football coach Calvin Griggs.
Rob Kool said Lakeridge hired Griggs, after the Fortunes decided to transfer, to fill a vacancy as a receivers and secondary coach.
"We went through all the proper channels -- an investigation and all that -- to make sure everything was on the up and up before we hired him," Kool said. "We were very cognizant of the fact that people would want to say things."
Students entering the Lake Oswego district must prove residency or pay out-of-district tuition, which requires their home district to release them. The Fortunes live in an apartment in the Lake Oswego district with their mother, Kool said.
"Have I personally checked the residence? No," Korach said. "But that's what I've been told."
Still, some are skeptical of how thoroughly districts investigate residency. Three years ago, a group identifying itself as "Metro Parents, Coaches and players" hired a private investigator in an attempt to prove that a Beaverton High School football player was not living in the school's enrollment area.
Clackamas athletic director Jeff Erdman said the North Clackamas School District takes residency seriously.
"I have gone and done a site visit when I thought there was doubt," said Erdman, whose high school, like the other two in the North Clackamas district, competes with the Lake Oswego schools in the Three Rivers League. "I've had a situation when a student wasn't living in a home. Out of 2,300 kids at our school, are there any living at phony addresses? Probably. But I hope not." Young: "It's wonderful"
In the case of Zach Young, the transfer appears to be working out for the student and his new team. In his third game with the Lakers, Young was the catalyst in one of Lake Oswego's biggest wins, the 21-0 victory over Jesuit .
Tony Young said his son is fitting in just as he imagined.
"He was a little nervous going in just because he had been at Lakeridge for three years and had accumulated some friends," Tony Young said. "But he went over there and was welcomed with open arms."
Zach Young has become a Laker. After the win over Jesuit, he went to a school dance and then joined his teammates to celebrate at a fast-food restaurant, a team ritual.
"My friendships are starting to grow, and I'm starting to hang out with them more," Zach Young said. "Everything has just blossomed, and it's working out for the best. It's wonderful. Everyone is really nice. The coaches are great. I love it. It's new. It's different. It's exciting."

Family of Linemen Produce Great Results


Read this story about Portland, Oregon Native Stan Brock and his Family. If you ever get a chance to meet any of them do so! Oregon's First Football Family.

Subject: Stan is the man
Times Herald-Record, Middletown, NY, Aug. 31, 2007

By Sal Interdonato

West Point — Stan Brock pulled aside Army fullback Mike Viti after practice Wednesday.

Brock, in his first season as Army's head coach, and Viti might have been chatting about the team's pulse before their opener tomorrow in Cleveland against Akron.

Or about the team's relationship with the Corps of Cadets. Maybe some talk about academics and family was sprinkled in.

Viti says Brock is a players' coach.

"He understands the needs of a football player and how daunting this place can get," said Viti, a senior captain. "He cares about all the players."

It's not an act. Brock went through Beast Barracks, Army's grueling summer training for incoming cadets, when he was offensive line coach.

"The players must have been thinking, 'This guy is a little different,' " said Pete Brock, the oldest of four Brock brothers to play in the NFL. "How many college head coaches would do that? He wanted to make sure the kids knew he appreciated what they are going through and their challenges."

Poll Brock's family, former teammates and coaches and they all say Brock, who played tackle for 16 seasons in the NFL, is as real as they come.

"He's just a good guy," said Jim Mora, Brock's former coach in New Orleans. "Players love him. He's a good family man and one of the most popular players on the team. He was loyal to me. I never had to worry about him being a locker-room lawyer. He knows what it takes to be successful."

SOME ARMY ALUMNI think Brock isn't the man to resurrect Army football and post the academy's first winning season since 1996. He hasn't been a head coach at the college or NFL level, they bark.

Brock has the chance to prove them wrong. And he's changing Army's culture on and off the field.

Players are talking more confidently in the preseason. Practices ended with a team chant of "1-0."

Brock is building a family atmosphere at West Point. He regularly has the coaching staff to his home for barbecues.

Tim Walsh left his head coaching position at Division I-AA Portland State to be Army's offensive coordinator.

Robert Lyles, a former NFL linebacker for the Oilers and Falcons who was Brock's defensive coordinator at two AFL stops, is the linebacker coach.

John Tice, who lined up alongside Brock as a tight end at New Orleans, is the offensive line coach.

"We're all in this together. That's how I was raised," Brock said. "We can sit around and laugh and you get to know who you are going to battle with."

FAMILY IS BIG to Brock. He is the third of eight children (five boys and three girls). Jean Brock made sure her children never ate leftovers. Mom had a hot dinner ready for every sibling despite varying schedules.

The Brocks attended Jesuit High School in Portland, Ore., an all-boys school at the time. They worked landscaping and washed dishes to help pay the tuition.

Len Brock, a Portland police officer, instilled in his sons, "Show up and do it. Let's be the best. I don't care if you are oversized and overmatched."

Stan, like all Brock boys, didn't play football until high school because he was too big to play Pop Warner.

It didn't matter. After high school, one by one, the Brocks had great college careers. Pete, Stan and Willie played at Colorado. Ray went to LSU.

They all made it to the NFL. Pete played center 12 years for the Patriots (1976-87). Willie was drafted by the Kansas City Chiefs in 1978 and played his rookie season for the Detroit Lions. Ray went to two training camps with the Chiefs.

When Len Brock was asked how he trained his sons to be competitive, he said, "There were eight kids. We set the table for seven and rang the dinner bell."

And the Brocks loved hunting and fishing as much as football, growing up in Oregon. Stan is an avid fisherman.

Walk into his office and it's hard to miss the 62-pound King Salmon he caught in Alaska, mounted behind his desk.

Brock's office also has a great view of Michie Stadium, Army's home. Sometimes, Brock, 49, wants to strap on the helmet again.

"I still have that blood flowing to go out there, but I'm smart enough to know that I can't," Brock said.
He might not be able to join the huddle, but his voice is heard inside it.
What they say about Stan Brock
"Whatever he tells you he's going to do, that's what he's going to do. He's a man of his word. He's not going to recruit somebody on false pretenses. The team always came first with Stan and it still does." - Bum Phillips, Brock's former coach with the New Orleans Saints from 1981-1985.

"If I was in a situation where I was backed into an alley and a bunch of guys were coming at me, and I could pick any player I coached to help me, Stan would be the guy I'd pick to help me out. Stan was tough as nails and I don't know anybody tougher." - Jim Mora, Brock's former coach with the Saints from 1986-92.

"Everything he does is with enormous passion and a big smile. He can step outside of the box. I don't think I've ever had a bad time being around the guy." - Tim Walsh, Army offensive coordinator

"Coach Brock came in fired up and it spread throughout the players. He actually really believes in us." - Army senior safety Caleb Campbell

"I think it is Stan's job to take it to the next level and I think he has put together a great coaching staff and has more talent than we had when we played. Hopefully, this all leads to more victories. I can tell the commitment is there." - Jim Cantelupe, captain of Army's 1995 team

"Stan is the same guy that I knew in New Orleans. He's a no-nonsense guy and a little old-fashioned. You have to respect a guy who cares for people and whose interest is true and there's no BS." - John Tice, Brock's teammate in New Orleans and Army's offensive line coach

"He treats the superintendent and the director of athletics the same as he treats the janitor." - John Brock, Brock's nephew and Army's director of player personnel

Small Town Kahuku Plays Big Time Gridiron!

Kahuku tied for producing most NFL players

Advertiser Staff

Defending state champion Kahuku is tied with four other high schools with the most players on NFL rosters, USA Football announced.

The five Kahuku products are Aaron Francisco (Arizona Cardinals), Chris Kemoeatu (Pittsburgh Steelers), Ma'ake Kemoeatu (Carolina Panthers), Itula Mil (Seattle Seahawks) and Chris Naeole (Jacksonville Jaguars).

Kahuku is tied with two Florida schools — Dillard of Fort Lauderdale and Ely of Pompano Beach — and two California schools — Dorsey (Los Angeles) and Long Beach Poly.

The totals are based on the 1,695-man rosters that started the season.

Kahuku, which has won four of the past six state football titles, had six players in the NFL last year.

"We came from a small community and that's all there is there is football," Aaron Francisco, who played at Brigham Young University, told USA Football. "That's everyone's life there. It's shocking to me that we're tied for first. I had no idea."

"It's a big tradition where I'm from," said Naeole, who played at the University of Colorado. "Kahuku is on the North Shore and it has the whole community pride like other schools, but it's a little bit more. Everyone comes out to support the team. I've been gone awhile, but the name is still the same. I go back there and they just keep pumping out kids. My nephew came out this year and got a scholarship. Everyone there is strong-minded. There are a lot of Polynesians in the league from all over Hawaii."

California led all states, producing the most NFL players (206), followed by Florida (177) and Texas (175). No other state has more than 100. Hawai'i has more than 20 in the NFL. The University of Hawai'i, which has produced Jason Elam, Vince Manuwai, Pisa Tinoisamoa and Jeff Ulbrich, also has produced one of three players from American Samoa (San Francisco's Isa'ako Sapoaga) and one of two from Australia (Dallas' Mat McBriar).

Just Win Camp in Maui is another Smashing Success!!




Aloha Dirk,

 

This is just a short note to tell you how the 2007 Just Win Camp on Maui went.

 

     The first day was a blustery day. Winds were gusting up to 35mph, the receivers were wondering if the quarterbacks were ever going to deliver.   The OL and DL did not seem to mind.  Big Solomon Koehler was showing his power early.  Mykenna Ikehara was also very impressive.  

 

     The second day came and the winds calmed down to about 15 mph.  Quarterback Jordan Monico from Moanalua High started to shine.  Kama Bailey from Damien is the real deal.  He has good speed and great hands.   His effort to win is what impressed most.  He was really showing that he was the best back in Hawaii.  Over on the lineman field Sean Tesoro from Baldwin High and Montay Rover from Moanalua started to battle with the best.   The line coaches were really working them hard.  There is a pool nearby, but this is not a resort camp, this is a work camp.   The athletes left it all out on the field.  There was a receiver that was late coming to the camp, but most impressive was Chase Nakamura from Baldwin High.   He had other camps that he was attending, but made it home to Maui for the annual Just Win Camp.  He is a leaper and is a very skilled receiver.   Adam Hom and Aaron Tipoti from Pac5 (Word of Life) were above the rest at Linebacker.  Jarom Baldomero from Iolani was also very impressive at linebacker.

 

      Day three the soreness has set in and now the college coaches are looking to see who really wants to be a college football player.   Kahai Choy, Billy Stutzman, Haku Correa, and Tyson Nishihara are definitely college material.  Damon Pescaia does not have the size, but has the heart to be what college coaches are looking for.   He was given a special award created by Coach Gerke and Coach Himebauch for the best scrapper.

 

     The 2007 Just Win Camp was a success.  The 2008 Camp will be the sixth year on Maui.   If you want to be seen by many Pac10 coaches and a few other conferences, you can not miss this camp.  Come test yourself against the best of Hawaii.

in the NW. Pictured here at the Line of Scrimmage Camp at Western
Oregon University. Colin was the bench press Champ at 23 reps out his
group of seniors. He has a great athletic build and will project well
as a TE or OL. His frame could handle more weight and he is very fit
right now. Blocks well. has some technique to improve upon but
impressed al of the coaches this year!

Line of Scrimmage Camp pounds it Out in Summer 2007




NW Best Pound it out at Line of Scrimmage Camp It was a typical Summer week in Monmouth, Oregon. This small college town was all but empty as most students had left until Fall. Tractors droned as clouds of dust rose amongst the rows of new cut hay. On the edge of town the local Farm auction was gearing up at the fairgrounds. The big news around town was that local boy and graduate of Western Oregon University, Daryl “Mouse” Davis, was returning to Oregon to Coach once again at Portland State University. Other than that it was a quiet morning. I stopped along Main Street for a cup of coffee. It was going to be a really hot day. But in the distance I heard the faint sounds of whistles and a distinctive “Thud” could be heard as the real boys of Summer began their 3 day ordeal. The Western Oregon University Line of Scrimmage Camp was just beginning. I arrived to find this years Camp at full tilt right out of gate. The camp opened with 215 Offensive and defensive linemen from around the NW and as far away as Arizona, Alaska, and Kona, Hawaii. The Camp is unique as it features Coaches from around the NW all coming together to teach the finer points of play along the line of scrimmage. There was no lack of enthusiasm or hitting at this Camp. Often underappreciated, the line positions are generally considered the heart of the team; without which success can not be achieved. Camp Director Tim Bowman of WOU puts on this superb camp and had this to say “The camp is a great opportunity to develop as a player and network with Coaches that these young men may play for someday. This is a great group of players and coaches…it’s awesome. It really is”. Working both offense and defense the players are engaging and delivering contact on almost every rep. The camp featured and official SPARQ Event, and 8 Full Contact sessions 2 hours each. This all occurs around the spectacular setting that is WOU. The weather was brutally hot but water and hydration were a priority. The competition was excellent and players ranged in size but it was common to see 6’2” to 6’6” players upwards of 340 pounds going at it. The coaching in my opinion was excellent and included some of the best technique training I have seen. The coaching staff this year included: Ryan O'Malley, OC, Western Oregon University Aleki Pascua, OL, Western Oregon University Josh Manning, TE, Western Oregon University Camron Olson, RB, Western Oregon University Bob Beers, Personnel Scout, Houston Texans (Formerly w/ the Detroit Lions) Zach Tinker, TE / Asst HC, Western Washington (Formerly OL Coach) David LaSalata, OL, Pacific Lutheran University Jared Terrible, DL, Univ of Puget Sound Ian Falconer, DL, Lewis & Clark Nick Whitworth, RB, Idaho State University Tim Camp, OL, Eastern Oregon University Eti Ena, DC, Eastern Oregon University Steve Helminiak, HC, Southern Oregon University Stacy Collins, DC, Southern Oregon University Tim Price, DL, Southern Oregon University By Camps end we had several stand out recruits including: Robert Atoe: DT/OT SR: The Dalles-Wahtonka, Oregon: 337 lbs.: 6’3.5” Demetri Enesi: DE /OG SR: Westview HS; Beaverton, Or: 248 lbs: 6’1” Zach Kaahanui: DT/N/C JR: Central Catholic, Portland,Or: 260 lbs: 5’11” Keoki Mawae: OT/ML SR: RA Long: Longview, WA: 240 lbs: 6’6” Colin Kelly: SR: TE/OT Kelso HS, Kelso, WA: 250 lbs; 6’5” Gavin Drake: SR: DE/OG Central Catholic, Portland, Or: 250 lbs: 6’2” Camp Awards Went to: Junior awards went to Marcus Cuellar, Central HS, Joel Brunello, McMinnville HS, Paul Tuma, Southridge HS, and Zach Ka'ahanui, Central Catholic HS. Senior awards went to Keoki Mawae, RA Long HS (WA), Aaron Lenk, Graham Kapowsin HS (WA), Delvin Afusia, Dimond HS (AK), and Gavin Drake, Central Catholic. Watch for these players as well as al of the linemen in attendance coming to a Friday Night nearest you! All players excelled and the camp was a huge success. The camp also featured guest speakers, some great team competition, and excellent advisement about getting recruited by Colleges which I will cover in a follow up story. Players wanting to dedicate themselves to being the best can certainly take a step in that direction by attending the Western Oregon Line of Scrimmage Camp.
