Jordan McAlary was a five star recruit according to some services in 2016 when Louisiana head coach Porter Davis came calling. Davis was one of the few head coaches who wanted McAlary due to his stature. At 5'11" many didn't see McAlary as an ideal QB. Davis said the only numbers he cared about were 33 and 107, Jordan's career wins and touchdowns at Central Holmes Christian School in Durant, Mississippi.

McAlary was the Cajuns starter in 2017 when he threw for a school record 4,414 yards along with 28 touchdowns in the Cajuns new look Air Raid offense. Unfortunately Davis and McAlary's time together was short lived as Davis was forced out of Lafayette following a scandal involving a co-worker.

In 2018 McAlary suffered a broken wrist that limited him to just two games before missing the bulk of the season.

In 2019 McAlary's season was once again cut short by injury after just three games.

McAlary elected to sit out the 2020 Covid season.

In 2021 Davis and McAlary were reunited when McAlary brought his talents to Hawaii as a graduate transfer to reunite with Porter Davis, who had taken a role as a consultant after retiring from Arkansas due to health concerns. The duo once again proved to be a good one as McAlary threw for 4,200 yards and 37 touchdowns, helping the Rainbow Warriors make it to the Mountain West conference championship game before falling to Utah State.
With his college career in the rearview mirror McAlary found himself signing with the Arizona Cardinals as an undrafted free agent. He ended up starting one game and playing parts of four others for the Cardinals while they dealt with injuries at the position. McAlary struggled in the game and was released by Arizona late in the season.

McAlary bounced around a few practice squads before getting a call from Davis, hoping the two could join forces once again as Hawaii was in need of an offensive assistant.

McAlary joined the staff at Hawaii as a passing game assistant and was calling plays by season's end. McAlary, not yet 25 years old, has been praised by every coach he has worked under. Despite his youth and lack of coaching experience McAlary has caught the attention of a handful of programs and is expected to start interviewing for offensive coordinator jobs post haste.

Here we fucking go. Eleven plus years. Two console generations. A plethora of real world college football changes. I played college football video games from Bill Walsh College Football in 1993 all the way until NCAA 14. Part of me has been missing since Ed O'Bannon screwed us. (j/k, I stand with the players). So...

Good luck fam

JORDAN MCALARY RUNS FOR A TD WHILE AT LOUISIANA IN 2017

After just one season as an offensive assistant at Hawaii under former Louisiana head coach Porter Davis Jordan McAlary is garnering significant interest from colleges eager to fill their offensive coordinator roles.

McAlary, who ran a version of the Air Raid offense while at Louisiana and later when he played a season for Davis in Hawaii, threw for over 8,000 yards and 70 touchdowns in just two full seasons. After a season in the NFL McAlary returned to Hawaii as an offensive assistant under Davis and was calling most of the offensive plays by the end of the season.

Davis, who retired due to health concerns after the season, praised McAlary's ability to grasp even complex Air Raid concepts quickly. "It wasn't very far into the season where he was running game planning meetings and explaining stuff to even some of our more seasoned coaches." Davis said when asked about McAlary's abilities. "He taught me quite a bit about the system. Whoever gets him is going to be glad they did."

McAlary has reportedly already interviewed with several schools including Kent State, Akron, Nevada, James Madison, Louisiana-Monroe, South Alabama and San Jose State. McAlary has also been linked to UConn, Eastern Michigan and even Iowa according to some sources.

"Just looking forward to the process. I will take as many interviews as possible and look for the opportunity that feels like the right fit." McAlary said in an email response earlier in the week.
