Ford with national press

From Eric Bossi: "Look for point guard Jordan Ford to debut in the rankings for the class of 2016 when they are next updated. A scoring point guard from Folsom (Calif.) High, the three-star was outstanding for the Oakland Soldiers on Sunday. He loves to utilize the high ball screen and is very dangerous coming off that screen because he can pull up and make jumpers from between 15 and 20 feet and because he has the quickness to get all the way into the lane. Ford lacks strength right now, but the instincts and feel are all there. He told Rivals.com that he has early offers from UTEP, Gonzaga, Cal State Northridge, UC Irvine, UC Davis and Northern Arizona while California, Stanford and Boise State have upped their interest lately. More programs will be jumping into his recruitment soon enough."

Ford would have gotten national notice but at a later date had he not jumped to the Soldiers so call this a win-win. Still not sure if he will become a national recruit but he'll certainly have plenty of excellent options come college.
