Hurts at it again. Also, realizing I screwed up his first name. Very unlike me.
Do I want him? No. Do I worry that Oklahoma is running one of the most quarterback friendly offenses of all time, and we might have blown our wad on someone who can't function optimally outside of it? Yeah.You want him? Latest air raid system phenom
P S. It is Kansas and this ain't basketball.
Hurts returns to the big stage next week in the Cotton Bowl.
Half the stadium in burnt orange, the other half wearing half crimson and cream. 92k screaming lunatics watching the best rivalry game in sports. We're going to see what Jalen is really made of.
But Ehlinger will have murder in his eyes on Saturday. He is Mr. Longhorn, and he doesn't want to end his college career 1-3 vs. the Sooners (pending a potential match up in the CCG). He's the most underrated college QB in America right now, and I hate how he's flying under the radar going into the RRR game.

The more I watch Baker Mayfield have marginal games, the more I watch our QB fail to put up touchdowns, and the more I watch Hurts outperform them both in the same offense, the more concerned I get.
You can say this for Ohio State as well.I think this is a legit question. Oklahoma runs a good college offense with superior athletes. Every QB has played phenomenally in it. Does it translate to the NFL? Jury is still very much out on that one.
Jalen Hurts couldn't throw the ball at all while at Bama but he was playing against SEC caliber defenses. Many are on the Joe Burrow bandwagon from LSU. He's looked great but let's see what he does in the coming weeks against Florida and Bama.

Meh.Couldn’t throw the ball at all at Alabama? As a freshman and sophomore he threw for almost 5,000 yards with 40 TDs and 10 INTs. What does throwing the ball look like as a fresh/soph against SEC defenses?

So kind of like Kansas and the other teams he has played so far? And he was younger at Alabama. And most of those stats are against SEC teams. Not sure what you are trying to say in the second sentence.How many of those were against inferior or FCS teams? He wasn’t not a great thrower of the ball againsy SEC teams.

I agree. What's your point and what does OSU have to do with this?You can say this for Ohio State as well.
Yet Oklahoma, one of the best programs in the nation, wanted him as their QB. Interesting.Just to point it out in 2017 which was his best year he averaged 18 pass attempts per game for 149 yards per game. His passing numbers were real bad. He had one game where he threw 3TDs and it was against Mercer.

If you follow college football you know Oklahoma doesn’t recruit QB. They pick up a kid in the transfer portal and know they can turn him into a star with their scheme. KK is no Lincoln Riley he could/can not do the same thing.

Oklahoma doesn't recruit QB? Come on man. We've got five star kids lined up around the block waiting to play for Riley.
Don't make me go find all the info about Spencer Rattler, and the guys in the 2020 class.
Jaylen and Kyler were very highly recruited. Yes, they transferred, but they were 4/5 star recruits.Spencer Rattler is an Arizona kid, super highly recruited. He does have a point though--the last 3 QBs who have had massive success at Oklahoma have been transfers--Mayfield--Murray and now Hurts--but it also ignores the fact he doesn't shy from recruiting highly sought after HS QBs.
