Jordan, a senior from Collinsville, Okla., posted a 5-6 record and a 4.58 ERA across 15 starts as the primary Saturday night pitcher for South Carolina.
It took until the 5th round of the 2021 MLB Draft for the first Gamecock to be taken off the board, but the wait for No. 2 and 3 was not nearly as long.
He posted a 5-1 record with a 2.15 ERA and struck out 84 batters in just 54.1 innings working primarily out of the bullpen last season.
Chandler was a top-rated recruit for the Clemson baseball team, and expected to be a backup QB for D.J. Uiagalelei on the football team this fall.
