Jordan Strachan he should have had more than 10.5 sacks during his last season in Georgia.
The first-year defender from South Carolina told reporters on Wednesday that his pass rush production from 2020 should have been better than drawing first in the country. But it’s not like he’s counting over the past season.
“I didn’t pay much attention to that, because I knew I would be complacent in some way,” said Strachan. “But I worked a lot. I expected nothing less. In fact, I felt I should have bought a lot more bags. I left a lot in the field, but I worked a lot.
“Countless hours and a lot of film. Honestly, I felt that my work would stand out and eventually, at the end of the season, seeing your name there is something to be proud of, because of the work it took to get there, and really going there and making it happen, so this is something that I was happy. “
Strachan, who enrolled in Georgia as a security guard in 2017, credited some of his coaches for helping him end a tie with Iowa State’s Will McDonald IV. Two of those coaches played in South Carolina, defensive line coach Travian Robertson and graduate assistant Bryson Allen-Williams.
“Bryson, he mentored me a lot, he helped me a lot,” said Strachan. “I remember that, every day after training, I was out there getting extra work, always working on extra things, giving me great advice on how to do things. There are a lot of nuances and little things I didn’t know about being in a hurry that he taught me, as well as my other coach, Coach Robinson, who trains d-line in the state of Georgia.
“He taught me a lot too. I would like to summarize the film every week with Coach Robinson, about the quarterbacks and the online, everything we have to do this week. All of these things helped me to improve in the past year. “
