What College does Jalen Hurts Claim?

[Bama-fo-life]

Anyone see Jalen’s NFL intro at the beginning of the game? What school does he claim? Does he go back and forth or does he go a different route all together? I am just curious.

I have not seen his intro, but when asked he claims both proudly.

Jalen is a graduate of the University of Alabama. I don't believe he ended up graduating from Oklahoma with whatever master's degree he was taking classes for.

So, because he didn't just bolt from Tuscaloosa, but graduated, and he only went to Oklahoma to get in one more year of playing time to get drafted as high as possible, he would consider himself tied more closely with the Tide instead of the Sooners.

Neither fanbase has any ill will toward him, so that plays into his favor no matter what. I don't know if NC State fans claim Russell Wilson or if it is Wisconsin fans who think he is theirs. That would be the closest comparison if I had to guess. Does Wilson switch it up or is he consistent with Wisconsin?

I'm thankful for that one year the Sooners got with Jalen at the helm. KM was more elusive as a running QB, but Jalen was the best I've seen at picking up those tough yards.

Given he was seen in the OU locker room smoking a cigar after Bama beat Tenessee I think he is a Bama player in his heart..its funny as my neighbors are avid OU fans and we have this debate all the time!

The player intro only happen for the NBC Sunday Night games. We will know when the Eagles play on a Sunday night game. No idea when that will happen. Some players will say their hometowns or high schools.

As he should.

I'm pretty sure he's more of a Bama guy but he still reps OU too.

Bama fans seem to like him more than OU fans too

I know he is a Bama guy. I know he claims both. I was just curious as to what he said when he had to choose one. Thanks all

He may claim both, but his behavior says BAMA all the way.

 

[TXPachyderm]

It appears to me he personally reps BAMA, regardless of whatever the NFL graphics says.

We were glad to have him in Norman, but if he took a truth serum, I'd bet he would say Bama. As he should.

You can't look into the man's heart, but if you could, we all know what you would see.
