Bowling Green State University cornerback Jordan Oladokun was named a nominee for the 2024 AllState AFCA Good Works Team. Nominees for the Good Works Team have represented exemplary community service, academic dedication and impact on and off the field.

Oladokun (Sr., Tampa, Fla.) was a second-team All-MAC honoree in 2023 and a Hero Sports Group of Five first-team All-American. Oladokun is one of eight FBS players returning in 2024 who finished the 2023 season with four-plus interceptions, 30-plus tackles, over six pass break-ups, and at least one pick-six.

Off the field, Oladokun takes part in Holidays with Falcon Football, which is when the BGSU football team provides celebration for children in the Bowling Green community who might not otherwise have one during the holiday.

He has volunteered at The Nest in Bowling Green, which provides free childcare for parents completing their education.

The Allstate AFCA Good Works Team has been one of the most esteemed honors in college football for 32 years. The student-athletes who are nominated for this award not only demonstrate a unique dedication to community service and desire to make a positive impact on the lives around them, but they also show tremendous perseverance as well as the ability to overcome personal struggles and come out victorious against all odds.

The Allstate AFCA Good Works Team is comprised of 11 players from the NCAA Football Bowl Subdivision and 11 players from the NCAA Football Championship Subdivision, Divisions II, III and the NAIA and one honorary head coach.

To be in consideration by Allstate and the AFCA for a nomination, each player must be actively involved with a charitable organization or service group while maintaining a strong academic standing.

All members are selected by a voting panel of former Allstate AFCA Good Works Team members, current and former head coaches and journalists who look for exceptional leadership on and off the football field.
