MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — Jordan Jefferson offers evidence that life sometimes has a way of working out just right.
As a high school junior, Troy was among the programs recruiting the Navarre, Fla. defensive tackle. As a senior, he started gaining interest from more prominent schools like Kansas State and Louisville.
On national signing day, Jefferson got the best of both worlds, agreeing to join the coaching staff that recruited him to Troy at West Virginia. Jefferson is the second high school player to sign with the Mountaineers since Neal Brown took over, joining fellow Floridian athlete Rashean Lynn.
