No joke - I work for a health system, and literally footage from the national championship of jalens benching / tua winning the game was used. The message - teamwork always wins. As a fan of football, and sports in general, you are so right, zac. Jalen is a rare breed. He’s ridiculously talented, but also very humble. I truly think he will do well in the league. A team has to believe in him, but I think he can and will do well.
Legalize Shemp I think the CFL would fit him better than the XFL. They play some great football in the CFL, and it has a great history. I think they have the same salary as the XFL maybe a bit higher. I know starters who are all stars do well.
I loved how Jalen handled the situation and I thank him for what he done for Alabama and my favorite moment of him in a bama uni was when tua threw the game winning touchdown in the national championship game and Jalen was the first one out there dabbin tua up and hugging him, and i can't wait to see what the future holds for him
DawsonTheDawg true lol. I just think there are some players in all sports who have done genuinely nothing to be hated on and Jalen is def one of those guys. Regardless of what people think of his talent, if they aren’t rooting for him as a person there’s something wrong with them
Jalen Hurts: Nice guys finish second. Literally, his entire career is based around being number 2, which coincidentally was his number at Alabama. Love the guy, he's a good dude, but it's true.
@@michaelsledge3904 y'all can try to slow down black quarterbacks from going to the league as much as you Want but it's not gonna work bro. We all know why y'all fought hard against Lamar Jackson
This is why we love sports. It's the stories of people like jalen who don't shy away from the difficulties and "distractions" life throws at us. He might not have the wow factors or all the tangibles , but he had what every successful player needs and that is "it". Unfortunately tho, I don't think he'll get drafted till MAYBE the 3rd round or later but I can guarantee he'll be a game changer either in the nfl *if given the chance* or most definitely in the xfl. *side note* A movie on his college career *and possible pro career* would be fascinating and phenomenal. Especially since his last name would easily formulate a title like "life of hurts"👌🏽
@@b47ance34 I would hate to see another black QB changing to a skill position type of role. not sure if Hurts will be all pro in the NFL, but give him a chance at QB.
Herro Prz Edelman is 5’10 that’s why he switched. Hurts is 6’2. They’ll question his throw ability and once he does his 40 they’ll being talking about him switching positions smh
I live in alabama and people here LOVE him regardless of him transfering and people noticed how he handled himself in the championship and who knows, if he gets drafted i think he will be great qb for years to come.
Has nothing to do with being black for me has to do with skill set and intangibles.hurts has it Tim tebow had it but accuracy etc is what’s important.no one doubts hurts leadership toughness or maturity
If I led a Youth Group I would use Jalen Hurts as the Mentor. "What would Jalen do?" Thank You for your strong opinion on such a great athlete. Began watching him in 2016 at a sports bar in St Augustine and could not take my eyes off his talent to run the ball and pass the ball. Followed him to be No. 1 at Oklahoma. Had hopes Brett Kollman had comments on his Senior Bowl effort, but nothing. I want to see more of him.
From what Lamar Jackson did this season , we can not predict any player in this era in the NFL. From all the negativity he goes and lights up the league. It’s all about the coaching and the right organization
Led the biggest comeback in school history against Baylor, brought them to the playoffs. Put up a hell of a fight against Joe Burrow. He's really a special character and a special player. Really hope he gets his chance in the NFL.
Don’t go “Alabama didn’t make it to the playoffs and jalens team did” or “jalen was second in heisman voting and tua wasn’t” tua got injured and we all saw what a hurt tua did against LSU vs a healthy jalen hurts in the playoffs against LSU. Oklahoma got absolutely destroyed and jalen looked bad!Cmon man you’re smarter then this
And I’m not bashing jalen hurts I liked him a lot at bama and he’s an incredible leader but his talent level is not at Tua’s level and I don’t think he can be a good starter at the NFL level either. I do wish him the best but it’s the truth. People say XFL I think that would be AMAZING
Jalen hurts will most likely be a late round pick by new England, I don't think he has the passing ability to develop but he could be a ray Lucas type (ray Lucas was Taysom hill before Taysom hill) but I have to agree with another commenter and say xfl
Jalen Hurts the prefect back up for Lamar Jackson or future starter of the Panthers, Tampa, or any time wanting a versatile run style. The 9ers would be deadly with him as well
Would he be a good fit for the Chargers, if the Chargers take a risk and improve the OL instead of getting a QB in the first round. If it all turns to crap they may get a certain T Lawrence with the first pick next year ....
He’ll have to go somewhere he can work with a good QB or coaching staff. He made good improvements with Dan Enos and Riley. I look at a Tyrod Taylor, he could do similar. He’s not going to become Lamar or Mahomes by any means, I can see him working to a starter down the road. That or he becomes the face of the XFL in 2-3 yrs, if the leagues makes it lol
I think Tua and Hurts could end up being the two best QBs in the draft. Whoever takes hurts in like the 3-4 round will have a potential huge steal. Not saying it’s for sure, hurts has a lot of potential
When you know the guy taking your spot is better it makes it easier to sit down. Jalen can't throw accurately down field, fumbles too much, still a great kid.
@DankBurrito ironically Baker Mayfield literally got exposed the same way you describing Jalen hurts. But we all know it's a double standard for those two. As a matter of fact when I watched the Georgia Oklahoma rose bowl, I noticed even tho y'all lost Oklahoma fans ignored Mayfield's attitude and y'all were having a family reunion in the comment section calling the game an instant classic 😂 but with Jalen hurts wasn't none of that from y'all even tho him and Baker pretty much played the same teams and he even outmatched Sam ellingher who y'all been hyping up throughout the internet.
Jalen needs a bit more training, a bit more practice. But he’s NFL quality in terms of player quality, smarts, decision making. He could easily be a starting NFL QB on a perennial playoff team if he gets developed right.
Hi Zac, love the show, I wanted to see if you could do a film analysis or segment on Raiders Quarterback Derek Carr from this past season. What an interesting season to say the least. I firmly believe he will be the starter in Vegas come week one. I believe in Derek Carr. I would say in terms his game is a Notch above the “Above average Quarterback”. I think he is just a true number 1 receiver away from being that top 10 QB in the league we all know he can be. What’s your opinion on Derek Carr? Thanks Zac.
@West Coastin' there is no deserves. only earned. he has a lot to prove to show hes an NFL qb. winning championships in college didnt proove tebow was elite at the nfl level either. mostly sec qbs dont work in the nfl anyway.
I'll take Jalen mid round draft pick. Man has Russel Wilson like potential clearly a hard worker student of the game and a born leader and a maturity that's off the charts. He has all the intagibles to be great. He isn't tebow with a janky arm motion. I think them putting Jalen in early on at Bama was forced he wasn't ready. He was like their first Freshmen starter in years. Tua was ready from Day 1. Some people just take time to get it going. Joe Burrow took a while as well. I like him I would love to see him on my favorite NFL #Skol
I think his stock could have gone up if he transferred his third year maybe like he didn’t have to stay there that third year he could have gone somewhere else idk where
Jalen hurts has a chance ala Taysom Hill . There is a place in NFL for excellent football players athletes. Given right situation he could end being the next Taysom . Taysom will get his shot and Jalen just might. No he cannot be a good qb full time anytime soon. He is not Lamar Jackson .
Jesus we get it, he showed Grace. U don't need a 10 minute video saying the same exact thing over and over, tell us a little more about his career and future

No disrespect meant to you, but fuck being humble. Show me one legitimately humble top level athlete, they don’t exist. Especially at the QB position
@@victorkenarsy3024 I know he's not a QB but Larry Fitzgerald is the one that always instantly comes to mind.

XFL is calling him
Sebastian Martinez he would actually be really good in the xfl. His skill set is better suited to the xfl
Sadly, he was pushed into the 1 spot too early. If he had 1 more year as number 2 he would have picked up so much more.
He's the football equivalent of Chael Sonnen
The Llama you’re not wrong.
XFL should pick him up next season. This where they make noise by picking up a player like him up.
Sebastian Martinez some people say the bucs are going to get him, I’d say the other Tampa team might try too
Sebastian Martinez he’s going to the league for sure

You were on point…
If tyrod was able to make a pro bowl one year hurts can start on a team in the NFL
I think he could have a Taysom Hill type role in the NFL wouldn’t mind if my Cardinals picked him up in the later rounds
He said that he wants to play QB in the NFL, I doubt he’d want to become that
Minty Fresh That’s unfortunate he could be a good backup but it would help his draft stock if he was more versatile

I would go to the CFL over the XFL if I were him. He’s going to the NFL though, and hopefully it works out for him.
Hes going to the titans
I see him being like Brett Hundley if not better 🤧
I'm a Oklahoma fan I like jalen going to NFL
Jalen needs a bit more training, a bit more practice. But he’s NFL quality in terms of player quality, smarts, decision making. He could easily be a starting NFL QB on a perennial playoff team if he gets developed right.

Plz Jalen... go to the XFL or the Colts. One or the other!
Jalen Hurts go be the new Dak and Burrow might be a bust if he end up in Cincy

Hope that the Chiefs draft him... Andy Reid is an amazing QB coach
pretty sure the last thing on the chiefs' minds right now is picking up another qb.
