VALPARAISO | Jeffrey Jordan, son of NBA legend Michael Jordan, took his official recruiting visit to Valparaiso University on Monday, a source close to the VU men's basketball team confirmed.

Jordan, who was not accompanied by any family members, had lunch at Buffa Louie's with associate head coach Bryce Drew, assistants Luke Gore and Jason Hawkins and a few players. VU head coach Homer Drew was not at the lunch.

Valparaiso has been in the recruiting mix for Jordan since February. Jordan, a 6-foot-1 senior point guard at Loyola Academy in Wilmette, has drawn the interest of several Horizon League schools -- most notably Loyola University Chicago -- as well as bigger schools such as Xavier, Northwestern and Penn State.

The spring signing period for the class of 2007-08 commenced last Wednesday. Valparaiso has three scholarships available for next year's class, which already includes Bryan Bouchie and Howard Little. Homer Drew has said the team is looking for a point guard and another post player. Drew has also said he may not use all three scholarships for next season.
