10 questions with WMU Senior wideout Jordan White


Content	By Alan Gerould, Editor, SW Michigan Sports Review SEELYE CENTER — SWMSR went deep into the WMU indoor practice facility in search of the elusive Jordan White. Fortunately JW is only elusive to opponents defenders. SWMSR: Are you happy to be practicing at this time of year? JW: I was planning on practicing one way or the other, staying in shape for NFL scouts and the combine, but this is even better because I am here with all of my teammates. SWMSR:You are the first consensus ALL-American in program history, has that sunk in? JW: Well it’s still kind of surreal and I don’t really think that it has hit me fully, but I am getting a lot of attention from the media, etc. so it’s starting to hit me. SWMSR: Do you think that having receivers like Neal, Jennings, Simmons, Nunez and now you says something about this program? JW: Definitely, It’s all about Coach Cubit’s system…It’s a pass happy system and when you throw it like we do someone is bound to put up some numbers. SWMSR: You are at the end of your sixth year in the program due to a couple of years lost to injury, would you do it differently if you could. JW: I don’t think that anyone likes to get injured but that being said, The extra time here has allowed me to become that much better at being a student, a leader and a player and I’m sure it happenned this way for a reason. SWMSR: So you are at full strength! Not nursing anything? JW: 100 percent and no I can’t afford to nurse anything because that is often when you get hurt worse. SWMSR: You are being looked at by several NFL scouts and teams, what are you hearing about playing on Sundays ? JW: I haven’t really got into that much. I figure that it will take care of itself. I am hoping to play at the next level though. (Editors note: my sources tell me anywhere from mid second to mid fourth round). SWMSR: With you and Chleb (Ravenell) and Rob (Arnheim) all graduating after this season are the “cupboards bare?” JW: No definitly not, you start with Eric (Monette) and Ansel (Ponder) and others that backed-up this year and then add all of those red-shirt freshman and the receiver group should continue to be a strength of this program for many years to come., SWMSR: Good luck on Tuesday and with your career Jordan. JW: Thank you very much
