Didn't know Hurts was at Alabama then transferred till I looked it up just now. Thought he just played for only Oklahoma. I don't follow college football that closely.

Yeah he took Alabama to the championship game where Tua came in for him and won it.

And he transferred because he wasn't draftable out of Bama. I'm gone let you keep cooking though. 

So he wasn’t an Alabama QB for 3 years? Brady wasn’t very draftable out of Michigan, Warner out of Northern Illinois or wherever he played.

He transferred because Tua was going to be the starter and he wanted to start.

Gotcha.

He also was a backup for the whole year under Tua. Had zero draft stock. That's why he transferred to Oklahoma to bump up his draft stock. He's a Sooner. If it wasn't for Oklahoma, Jalen probably isn't in the NFL.

That doesn't matter. If you aren't draftable from your prior school, it doesn't matter. 

Brady got drafted my man. Jalen was drafted from OKLAHOMA. Not Bama.

With Mac Jones  and Bryce they do have 4 starting QBs in the NFL right now Thats probably leader in the club house. Probably can put that old cliche to bed.

Just 3. 

Oklahoma has 3 Jalen Hurts, Kyler Murray, and Baker (if he wins the job in Tampa).

OU guy in here making it seem like players get drafted and succeed in the nfl only because of the school they went to

Not really. But you can't say a player was from one school, when that school didn't even want him there anymore. Then succeeded at another school. Not how life works.

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
