5-star DE Jordan Burch sets commitment date
Nov. 18, 2019
Five-star defensive end Jordan Burch 6'5" 250lbs announced on Monday that he’s set his commitment date. Tweeted that he’ll reveal his decision on Dec. 19. That’s a Thursday. It’s also the second day of the Early Signing Period.
South Carolina is among the schools he named in his top five last month. LSU, Georgia, Clemson and Alabama were also included.
The 247Sports’ Crystal Ball predictions are all for Burch to go to Clemson with the exception of one pick for the Gamecocks. Rivals’ FutureCast is equally split between Alabama, South Carolina and Clemson (with one pick each).
247Sports’ Charles Power said Burch draws comparisons to San Diego Chargers’ Joey Bosa.
“Burch has the framework to develop into a top pass rusher at the next level. He plays with outstanding bend and leverage, with the ability to dip and run the arc off the edge,” Power wrote of Burch. “Has a high level first step and play speed in pursuit. Doubles as a strong, physical run defender and looks to play with a high effort level. Flashes his considerable athleticism as a running back, moving with high level explosiveness and fluidity for a prospect of his size.”
Through the regular season, Burch has 53 tackles, a team-high nine sacks and 18 tackles for loss. On offense he has rushed for 488 yards and 10 touchdowns and caught six passes, four of which have gone for touchdowns. Burch also has thrown a touchdown pass.
