It's crazy, because the "scouts" of talent can literally tell players who are dynamic like Lamar Jackson to change positions. But Lord forbid a player sees the writing on the wall, and decides to change his position. Then all hell breaks out.
Great vid Flem!
Damn. The dude was 6'5 230. You a X whether you like it or not 😂.
I played against Hurd in high school back in 2013. That dude really opened my eyes to what the difference was between a regular high school player and a D1 athlete. I played WR and safety and I was pretty quick. But on his first break away run it was a 40+ yard TD and made me look like I was running backwards. On his next run we ran a safety blitz and he stiff armed me into next week.
yeah damn.we all feel we can play with the best and see that. I remember it in baseball and that was still high school lol 😂
My sophomore year in HS we started the season getting smashed by Benny Snell and ended it getting demolished by Joe Burrow
@@lilflasheycgeez the universe dealt you a fucked up hand!
@@AndrewEvenstar bro is 6’5” and nearly 230 pounds. He wasn’t much smaller in high school so when my 5’10” 180 ass came barreling in to try to hit him I shoulda seen it coming 😂
That Beech offensive line he played behind was nasty as well. Not that he wasn't super talented but he also had a smash mouth line to run behind that was in a different league than their competition.
I went to the same high school as Jalen Hurd and got to watch him play back then. Hurd was an absolute beast and you immediately knew who he was when he stepped on the field. He helped carry the team to a state championship, but the coaches ran him into the ground. It's often forgotten but Jalen went both ways a good amount, so he would play safety on defense and then immediately go right back out there and be the RB on offense. Regardless of how good our QBs and WRs were, our high school coaches ran the ball about 90% of the time with the same few runs plays almost every time. They did it before Jalen and still do it now and it's led to a lot of RBs getting injured through overuse and getting banged up every week.
Go sign up then.. Education is desperate for teachers who DID NOT go into the job thinking out summers off and sitting around all day in the AC...... The job DOES NOT attract the brightest candidates.... Football coaching don't pay a lot and the hours are long... OH, and 90% of your players are clumsy with less then zero talent. You will likely never see a Hurd or a Mahomes..
@@KeithZim This comment has major "I did jack shit in high school but I'm going to blame my teachers anyways" vibes
@@Wheelman2004he is saying the truth though, a big problem with education is that it doesn’t attract strong candidates. An easy example to see is in math. You always read stories online about how “I always hated math but I had 1 teacher that made me actually like the class somehow”. That’s because most math teachers in North America just do not understand the underlying structures at play in math. Anyone who is worth their salt in math has more than enough skills to earn double or maybe even triple a teachers median salary. Teaching isn’t regarded as a prestigious job culturally in North America, not payed well so it doesn’t get good applicants. Across the pond in Finland however it is culturally prestigious, very competitive and hard to get into, and payed very well, and consequently they have quite literally the best teachers in the world and the best rated education in the world. So the solution is to pay teachers more, the competition will follow.
Dang I knew Butch Jones and the Tennessee staff ran him into the ground. I didn’t think about his High School experience at all. Fortunately for him the size and speed of a High School Defensive Player (especially a player in the state of Tennessee) and a D1 College Player are vastly different. I’m sure, more often than not Jalen was the person delivering the blows in high school as opposed to receiving them. Must have been a joy to watch, like a Man amongst Children. Just a shame his body couldn’t hold out for the NFL. I wanted him to make enough money to live comfortably for everything he gave to the University of Tennessee and what little our fanbase and University has given to him. JALEN GAVE EVERYTHING TO TENNESSEE and it’s just sad how it turned out and how he’s treated by our fanbase
@@cameron3274Finland doesn't have the best in the world. Maybe Europe but not the world. And maybe public grade school education.
This man deserves a million subscribers we have to get him there man
For his contrived somber speech?
As a 9er fan, It sucked watching him get injured every season, because you saw the potential that was definitely there. Not to mention he was a complete professional his whole time with us.
I feel the same way he had so much potential this makes me so sad he was so good just can’t stay healthy
I remember watching his preseason highlights and thinking he was next. He flashed with his power, size, and speed.
I said the same thing bro I feel like he was going to make an impact for us if only he could have stayed healthy and got on the field the things that Kyle could have did with him would have been off the charts ..you hate to see potential lost to injuries
I knew this comment would be here
Kyle Shanahan's plan was to use him like they used Deebo. So his faith would've probably ended being the same. Kyle knows how to get em hurt. Ask Trey Lance.
Sony Michel also retired!! Him and Nick were monsters during their day!! At least Chubb is still doing his thing!!
Him and Stetson Bennet played together in college, crazy how fast thier career goes
They never quit on a team like Hurd tho
@@jbj7599to say the played together is a stretch lol stetson didn't take a single snap in 2017 but yes they were at Georgia for a year
@@MrJamb0reethey played together… were both on the same team, he wasn’t saying they were both starters, goofy
@@dylanTOP5ALIVE prioritizing your health and making a move that you think will help you extend your career isn't "quitting on a team"
You hit the nail on the head. Had he moved to wide out earlier and didn't take all those abusive reps, he could have probably went 10 seasons with the right coaches.
Sadly, I think his body would have broken down as a WR too, but I do think he would have at least made it through his rookie contract to be able to sign a 2nd, but after that his body would have broken down again.
Possibly. Unfortunately, HS coaching prioritized trophies over development. They rode him into the ground before he had a chance to grow fully. Had the early injury not happen as a kid, then the argument could be made that had he been able to develop, his career would have been drastically longer.
@@thewoodenlegbyjoe facts and the way they ran him showed the coaches didnt trust trust their qb or the qb was trash. They could have put him at qb and he would have excelled. Lamar Jackson type
His body broke down as a receiver too. He was just injury prone. If he played tennis, he would find a way to be hurt there too.
@stephenzajonc4766 did you see that he had more carries in one season than Bijan had in his HS career?? Like yes when he got to the league he was injury prone, but he had a stupid high workload in HS and College AND 6'5 230 is not an ideal RB build, to play it at that height you have to be at least 240-- there's a reason not any RBs over 6'2 work in the NFL (Henry and Steven Jackson are exceptions)
Saw him in high school. Hurd was a MONSTER in HS at tailback. He only did what Golden Tate did. Tate was an ELITE tailback in high school and then switched to WR at ND and in the league,
I forgot how crazy golden Tate was at ND
Wait, golden Tate plates tailback?
@@tannyglover3929in HS
I Thought he was the next DHenry fasho💯💯💯
@@tannyglover3929 Yes, he played RB at Pope John Paul II here in the Nashville area. Ask about him. He might have been one of the best tailbacks Ive seen at that level.
Niner fan who was SO HYPE to see Hurd and Deebo revolutionize football. Hurd had more talent than Samuel, but broke down before we saw dual wideback sets light up the league.
Man I remember him in college!! Great player!! Glad to have seen him play!!
Man i thought he had a chance to be really special. Injuries took him out though.
He was a monster!! He helped make and end Butch Jones at UT.
Great storytelling FlemLo. Hurd's story will surely have an impact on the next generation of top tier football players.
You are 100% correct! As a parent .... It makes you look at the game a bit " different " too .
If you're a parent of a football player, no biggie if you want your kid to be an expendable tool for billionaires to profit off at the expense of their safety. If you're cool with that, hell yeah, get them in there and tell them concussions are fake, they won't need brains
@@larry_ellisonYou’re not wrong, but you just described every professional sport. This may be apples to oranges to some, but the NHL has managed to reduce the risk of injuries by taking a level of physicality out of the sport without diminishing the product in any way, I wonder if that could ever be possible in the NFL.
@@axe2grind244the NFL is already taking the physicality out of the game. Any softer they might as well just play flag football
@@2strokeFORever Then why are guys being scraped off the field every 5 minutes in an NFL game. They don’t call it the National Injury League for nothing. If the NFL doesn’t implement these rules there won’t be anyone left to play. The biggest, strongest and fastest athletes on planet Earth play in the NFL, it can’t be a free for all or they would have to expand the rosters from 53 to 75.
Flemlo: Usual great content, sprinkled with good timing. Real sports journalism.
He’s light years ahead of that click bait clown “Mikerophone”
It's such a bummer that Jalen was too injured by the time he got to the 49ers if he was healthy in that system with Deebo that would have been such a nightmare for defenses and so much fun to watch
My brother was his highschool TE. Their coach was conceded and didn't care for his players. He really was limping around after games. They blew out most teams and they could have won if he ran only 5 times each of those games.
I went to a camp with Jalen freshman year. He was always a stud, real tennessee legend.
Off topic but it’s upsetting to see this man not at 1M
C’mon y’all let’s help Flemlo to a mil before 2023 is over
Much love Flemlo✊🏽🙌🏽
As a Tennessee fan it seemed to me at the time that he quit on the team. I was pissed but when I let go of my bias I realized he did what was best for him and I really wanted him to succeed injuries derailed that it’s a shame smh
Vol fan here and it’s so upsetting to me that an abundance of our fanbase still call Hurd a “Quitter.” It’s ridiculous to try and tear this young man down for attempting to put himself in a better situation. Butch Jones destroyed Jalen Hurd and after watching the years of him running up the middle countless times a game and getting rocked, there is no way I could ever call him a “quitter.” He gave his all for us, and that’s all we can ask for.
If people wanna bash on some former Tennessee players, take your pick from the endless McDonalds transfers we had 🤷🏽♂️ Not Jalen Hurd
GBO VFL
@@vinylhorror 🍊🍊🍊
I’m a Tennessee fan & I’ll always wish him the best. He was a great talent & I appreciated him for what he did for us. Jalen was NICE!! Wish him peace.
Yea,I've heard about Jalen hurd he's reasoning for switch positions was caused of so many injuries in game and Many running backs position are sometimes strainful due to injuries and playing time that an athlete suffers from while in their primeful playing career.
Im also working hard to obtain my GED and transfer to University of tennessee knoxville and walk on as DT( Defensive Tackle) and reap the benefits as Student and Athlete as young 24 yr old man ready make his mark as player and student.
You gone walk on with a GED and no money 😂😂😂 good luck
@@AndreKing4yooooo 🤣😭😭
Aint no coach below pro level that's telling the truth to you, remember that.
@popsmcgee4153 Who's said I'd have no money instead of counting ppl pockets how about you count greatness.
@@marcushardy6216 hey bro go get it, the bread helps on a certain level but nobody with money trusts someone who they think will fumble THEIR bag. I hope you snatch a soul this season.
Man as a niner fan I was so juiced when we drafted Hurd. Wish him nothing but the best he just couldn’t stay healthy! You should do one in Verrett as well my man
Man I always rooted for Jalen. When he went to the 49ers I kept saying man if he stays healthy he will be a beast. Thanks for this one because I was wondering what happened to him.
This is why I LOVE your content. Well researched & timely!!!
You are the Gold Standard for what you do!
God I love these videos. I know the views slow up, but you’ll never lose a viewer in me Flem. This content, the storytelling, you. its all one of one.
Keep making these very insightful videos, they're really well done. Thank you.
Great video! Jalen Hurd was like a lightning monster during his time in vols. It was really fun to water him play. What a bad news to hear his retirement. It’s heartbreaking, I wish him all the best in his future life, and may god treat him better, and tender.
Jalen Hurd carried that Tennessee Team on his back his freshman year. He was so tough man. They gave him way to many carries too
I'm happy to see a what happened to video again :) I thought you stopped doing them because I haven't seen one in a while. Appreciate you flem
Another great video. Covering both angles really made me look at things differently.
Sheeeeesh, my boy, almost at a milli?!?! That's what's up flemlo. Keep it pushing, big homie. Keep that content coming, fam. I'm locked in like Kobe💯💯
It also matters on what team or coach drafts you. Mark Ingram ONLY lasted as long as he did because he was sharing the backfield his entire career.
Well Done FlemLo. Awesome insight!!
As always.... AWESOME content, Flem.
AWESOME.
Hendersonville Tennessee * great video Jalen Hurd went to my high school I got to watch him play all 4 years of high school seeing you make a video on someone from my hometown is just amazing to see grey video flem been watching you for years keep up the great work bro 💯
Very insightful video as usual My Brother. In terms of commentary, Flemlo. You are the GOAT!!! 👍🏿😎
Thank you Flem for another excellent video!
We ain’t had a back like him at UT in a long time. Always wish nothing but the best for him
A lot forget when UT had him and Kamara and barely lost to Bama 19-14
One of the best vids yet!!! Great job!!!!
Great piece!!!!!
As a Vol fan Flem I love every time you do a video on a player from them even though all of your videos are 🔥🔥🔥 I just clicked on this one and I already know it’s gonna be fire I’ve been wondering what happened to this man last I had heard he was with the 49ers I believe
Excellent topic and video!
I love your channel bro. I’ve been following you since day 1
Keep killing it man
I'm hoping you hit 1 million soon. I've been watching you for a while and I really respect your views on the game. Your presentation is excellent.
Finished 3rd behind him and Corn Elder in rushing our senior year ‘13. Cool to see a video out about him
Great vid flemlo! I remember dude ran through my GA bulldawgs🤦🏾♂️. I was sad to see he didn't make it farther.
Another great video! Thanks a lot. I can tell football season is approaching.
Great content as always. I just love your voice.
Hendersonville, TN. Love your videos bro, keep it up. 💪🏽
Bro your the goat. Your content is incredible
This was first video I have ever watched from this channel and it was actually great because it was put together with amazing context and the actual numbers to see the picture of the story you were telling. Completely agree with everything you were saying. It is hard to put blame essentially on anybody because coaches want to showcase great players for future benefits and players are going to want the stats, especially when they are still so young. It is a tough thing for the running back market because this is unfortunately the new normal for the position.
As a tn native amd graduated in 2012, my school was 45 min away from jalen hurd hs , beach hs , my school springfield high, knew everything bout this guy. Jalen hurd was a MONSTER in high school frf .
Love the videos flem, I watched this kid play while he was in high school. Bro was unreal. One thing tho, he’s from HENDERSONVILLE, not Henderson. I know you like to make sure you get things right so I just wanted to throw that out there. Keep putting out these great vids bro, and hope you getting the bag off this YT stuff bc you deserve it with it passion and work you put into each video.
This was well put together video content. ✨️
Flemlo ur so thorough and make masterpieces!
Vividly remember this story. Drafted dude in a dynasty league cause he could have been in Deebo Samuel role but he never recovered
Amazing work, as always!
Flem you doing it big my guy 🫡🫡🫡 well spoken brother good to see us out here doing it I'm inspired
Man, I just love your videos.
I'm not even going to bring up what some ex-players on a podcast that was teammates with him said because this is a great video and I still cheered for him even after he left Tennessee and considered him a VFL and wanted nothing but the best for him. Great video ✌🏻Stay Up
Great show as usual. Love that "Hey Arnold!" t-shirt..😊
Love your videos bro. Also that hey Arnold shirt goes hard
Incredible and insightful video.
Another great video
Thanks for sharing 🙏🏾
Much to learn from his career ✅
Prayers out for Jalen 🕊️and those in similar positions 🕊️
Go Vols! And Go Jalen! Thanks for all your amazing hard work. Vol fans owe you a huge thank you. VFL!
Didn’t think you would make a video on bro but I’m fully invested into this because I am a miner fan a thorough one. I was waiting for bro to make a mark on the team but it never happened. Thank you for this.
Thank you for this video🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 bro was a problem in college
Very good video fam
These videos are so calming.
Great vid Flemlo!
This reminds me of the Ronald Curry story who ironically I seen a video of today. And how he was a 2 sport athlete in college and made his decision to choose just one too late & the injuries from football and basketball piled up on his body.
You are 100% my favorite sports youtuber bro. I cant believe this all started from EA NCAA FOOTBALL!!!!! Have you made a vid about that Pat White era West Virginia team that was set to go to the dance, but lost to unrakned Pitt in the last game of the season? If not, that would be dope.
That's why I hope these college athletes take full advantage of the free top notch education so that they have something to fall back on and still have a great career when football is over.
Love your content!
Keep it going.
As a Tennessean I hope we remember the truth that you so eloquently laid out, and give Jalen his due every chance we get. Shame is that credit from fans doesn't pay the bills. Glad you covered him. Some of these coaches are fucking idiots. Those high-school carries followed by Butch Jones wide ranging inabilities was brutal on him. Wish you all the best Jalen, welcome you back at UT any time!
Flemlo with the timely upload 🙏🏽
Great video
LOVE YOUR SHOW DOGG!!👊🐶
Love your comparisons and no shade facts.
Man I forgot about Jalen Hurd keep up the fire content bro💯
Being from a rugby country I don’t know much about football, but RB is such a gnarly position!
Guys get so busted up. Really isnt anything like it in other sports.
I really appreciate your commentaries, the avenues these kids have to go down are super rigorous - high school and college, with all the academic stuff, while coming from tough backgrounds, and having the be on your best behaviour. It’s a lot of weight for a young man to carry.
Thanks for shedding light on all that.
Such a good channel.
Dude….. you are well spoken, and give great insight! I love 🏈 and the way you do it!👍🏻
Flem you make great videos so deep just heart felt my heart goes out to jalen Hurd I wish we could have seen him in the league
Been wanting this video forever
This is a great video! I played ball Alvin at Hutchinson Community College. Dude was unreal
I followed him at Tennessee but not at Baylor; however, videos like your original one had me hyped when my Niners drafted him (ahead of Terry McLauren)!!! I was majorly disappointed in his career, but I wish him health and good luck in his future endeavors.
Hurd was the absolute truth man. When he switched to WR I was shocked actually and that ought he hurt his chances at being a pick in the future. But hearing why he made the change I feel him.
These videos gimme that extra confidence when I’m rocking my Q the Wayne shirts
being a tennessee fan wasn’t exactly the most fun at times lmao but watching Hurd & Kamara definitely left me with some good memories . really do wish Hurd’s NFL career worked out
Love this channel
great video
Yo Flemlo, what’s up on that Hey Arnold shirt! Dope!!!! 👍🏾
Great talent!! No matter if he changed his position to late or not he was still hurt regardless and didn’t play a snap!! Wish things could’ve worked out diff for him
Woosh
Props to Hurd for doing what he felt was right for him and not listening to the crowd. He didn’t lose it all either, he’s still made a good chunk of cash. If he’s half as smart with finance as football, he will be ok.
One of you best videos bro
I played for Henry county, it’s cool seeing my team and all the other schools around us on a flemlo video
Another thing to mention is that UT’s head coach at the time, Butch Jones, was notorious for not developing players, often put players in positions they weren’t comfortable in & he wasn’t good adapting to change. Back in Cincy, he tried to force JJ Watt to switch to TE. Can you imagine how much explosive & unpredictable UT’s offense could have been if he had Hurd, Kamara, their speedy receivers, & their mobile qb all on the field as legit threats? Such a disappointing what if.
*Hendersonville, TN
Really enjoyed watching him in HS along with Josh Malone. Then watched them play for my Vols. Good luck to Mr. Hurd going forward.
I’m actually happy you’re doing a video on him (Jalen Hurd) I think about him time to time
Damn, this video hits flem! I never really realized the dark road he had to endure to get where he wanted to go. I never actually thought he was that good watching him at Tennessee as a bama fan. But he actually had a solid college career. I agreee maybe all those carries in HS & in college more then likely ruined his career. All those injuries caught up to him from his body breaking down. Honestly in my opinion Tennessee cosching staff failed him by not listening to his concerns & not at least TRYING to do something about it. He obviously showed he had potential as a pass catcher RB/WR. I dont understand why Tennessee never took that in consideration. But what do i know? Great video flem! Love the content bro!
