Bishop High Jumps Into OSU History

Bishop's Quest for the Return of Men's Track

A Bishop Leads OSU's Track Revival

2010: Simply one of the premier overall athletes on the OSU campus ... one of eight football student-athletes to participate in men's track (indoor) during February and March - OSU hadn't had a male track competitor since the program was dropped following the 1988 NCAA Outdoor Championships ... won the high jump in his first meet since the spring of 2008 at the Husky Classic in mid-February with a leap of 7 feet ½ inch ... at the Pac-10 Championships he placed seventh at 6-10 ¼ ... advanced to the NCAA Championships where he earned All-America status finishing 10^th (one of top 8 Americans) with a personal best of 7-1 ½ ... will see considerable action at slotback and figures to be one of the next great receivers in the program. 2009: Jordan started four games at slotback ... caught passes in seven games ... had a career-night with five receptions for 43 yards at UNLV, including a spectacular fourth quarter catch for 21 yards that set up a first down deep in Rebel territory on the final drive of the game - he made two receptions on the drive ... scored his first career touchdown on a 3-yard pass from Sean Canfield at California. 2008: Redshirt.

WEST SALEM: Four-year letterman as a receiver and defensive back, earning all-state at both as a senior ... semifinalist for the Johnny Carpenter Prep Athlete of the Year for the state of Oregon ... earned all-league on special teams in 2007 ... selected to play in the Les Schwab Bowl Game at PGE Park, where he caught two touchdown passes and was named the MVP ... standout in track where he was the state's highest scoring athlete as a junior finishing second in the high jump and long jump - also a speedster in the 200 meters ... won the state long jump title (23-5) as a senior and placed second in the high jump and 400 meters ... four-year letterwinner in track and three in basketball, where he was a first team All-Central Valley selection.

PERSONAL: Born July 16, 1990 in Salem, Oregon ... son of Anthony Burnett and Julie Bishop, both of whom work for Oregon Youth Authority ... has one sister ... chose OSU because "I feel comfortable around the players and coaches, and I want to compete against the best in the Pac-10 Conference" ... majoring in health and human sciences with an emphasis on human services.
