Jordan Bernstine ""Morris" in trouble?

cybsball20 · 07-19-2007, 01:21 PM

So yesterday on Marty and Miller they said they would get to the Jordan thing in the Five o'clock hour, I'm guessing because their assumptions were shot down... Did anyone hear what they had to say about it yesterday?

The whole story sounds fishy. People don't go running into someone just because their kids are good at sports. I'm guessing there is more to this than is being said.

Any update on here whether or not he's going to get in trouble? He played in the Shrine Bowl game.

I heard he played, but didn't do much. He did get burnt deep for a touchdown one time though.

I agree...this thing has quieted down - interested to hearing what really happened and the outcome of all this.

Obviously all of the facts aren't out yet, but I'm guessing we're starting to see why GC didn't recruit Bernstine.

This is classic.

Chiz did not recruit bernstine because he was already commited to Iowa at the time. Maybe my dates are off though.

So you can say because of Hindsight that the reason Chizik didn't recruit Jordan because he knew about his potential run-ins with the law. I'm throwing the BS flag on that one. There is no way to know a kid would have problems with the law unless Gene had a background check done on the kid.

It sounds like Jordan needs to get to Iowa City soon before he stirs up more trouble. My guess is that as crooked as the DSMPD is nothing will come of this. It shames me to say it but I'm sure some Hawk booster will probably make the whole thing go away with a donation. However, I'm surprised that if Jordan resorted to taking matters into his own hands that he didn't at least go to the south-side mafia and as them to do him a favor and take care of his little problem.

Yea because Hawks football players never get in trouble in Iowa City.

Character issues don't just show up on a court transcript. I realize that you're a hawk fan but just admit what you've got. Berryman is a thug for driving on a suspended license but your drunk QB is a "non-story during a slow news week". Give me a break...they aren't all great because they're hawks and they aren't all thugs because they're not.

isumellie · 07-26-2007, 11:51 AM

Yea that is my point.

Could be but I recall there being a lot of conversation about whether or not GC had/was going to contact him, etc. I thought it was after that that he committed to UI.

right. there was definately time for gene to go after him and lots of talk about whether he would or not. heck maybe he did and just didnt succeed.

jordan visited EIU 12/8 and committed on 12/23. we hired chizik in late november.
