I knew his dad in college. Perhaps he'll end up at EIU as well.Originally posted by Da Coach View PostLincoln High School grad Jordan Nelson, who was followed by Bradley at one time, and who has been at Evansville for the last 2 seasons has left Evansville. No word on where he may transfer to.

He never got much playing time at Evansville, and I thought he might get more now that several of their shooters have graduated, but even when he did play, he never consistently showed the great shooting touch he had in high school.

he didn't get much playing time - but late in the season when Evansville hit the skids and lost 7 out of 10 games between mid-Jan & mid-Feb (in that 10-game stretch Jordan played just 27 minutes total) - Jordan suddenly was used as a key sub (avweraged 10 mpg over the final nine games) and he really produced!
Jordan started playing double digit minutes per game in their game vs. ISU (2/20) but over their final seven games - he shot 70% from the 3-pt line (7-10) and 80% from the field overall (12-15)!
After losing 7 of 10 from 1/16 thru 2/16 - the Aces then went on to win 7 of their final 9 - and most of those games Jordan was playing 10-17 minutes and contributing.Comment

Jordan Nelson is having a decent year over at Illinois Wesleyan. He's their designated 3-pt shooter - he was 4-4 Saturday night and 3-3 from the arc and scored a team high 16 as IWU beat 21st ranked Wheaton 78-71.
On the season he has been coming off thebench for about 16 mpg & hits right around 40% from 3.Comment

Jordan Nelson is also his Conference's Player of the Week - at IWU
Jordan is hitting 42.3% on 3-pointers (47-111), and would be 2nd best in the MVC among players who have attempted more than 3 per gameComment
