First I would like to say to all Bama fans this in no way is a dig at your program or Jalen Hurts. I respect the hell out of Jalen Hurts and how he has handled his college career, he has done it with class and character the entire time.
I realize it was completely your decision to leave Bama and you could have stayed this year if you wanted to because Saban needed you.
But there is a reason you played your final year of eligibility at OU and that was because Saban didn’t think you were good enough to start, so you bolted “as you should have done.”
But Riley and OU did have confidence that you were a starter and gave you an opportunity to run the offense and try and win a Naty at OU. Don’t you owe them your loyalty at the end when they were there for you and not Bama?
I just feel it is disrespectful to the girl you went to the dance with “this year” with the dueling OU/Bama helmet it is no different than when getting the title for homecoming King to thank your date this year and your date last year at the same time.
Just disrespectful to OU and their fans, let the Bama players where their helmets and be proud of that. You on the other hand are an OU sooner this year be proud of that. Or maybe he isn’t

Nah. It was a business decision for Jalen.
It wasn't because "Saban didn’t think you were good enough to start..."
It's because he wasn't good enough to start...over Tua.
Jalen basically was a Saban-quote machine this year. Jalen went out of his way to thank all the Bama fans for their support during the CFP.
Jalen will probably always say he's a former Bama player, rather than OU.
You'll have to find some way to deal with that.

Dude he was 26-2 as a starter at Alabama, he was absolutely good enough to start. Tua beat him out for the job fair and square

What this says to me is Bama still has his heart.
Though he was pulled from the 17 National Championship for a poor 1st half performance, they won the game & he got a ring.
He was SEC offensive player of year his Freshman year.
He rescued Bama to win the SEC his Junior season.
Lots of memories there. Mostly positive over negative.

You think Saban wouldn’t have kept Jalen had Tua not beaten him out? Remember, Jalen beat our Barnett for the job because Jalen was better. Same scenario with Tua.
Jalen wanted to start and he wasn’t at Bama because Tua won the job. Jalen has love for Bama and always will. Sorry that fact has triggered you so much.

Just never ends does it?

I wouldn't expect an LSU fan to understand. You've never had two starting caliber QBs on the same team before

I watched the video of the guy giving him that helmet with the sound off. Just looking at Jalen’s body language, I would have guessed he had no idea it was coming and did his best to be diplomatic when it happened.

3rd OU fan chiming in with no problem. LSU fans are so full of themselves it’s pathetic. It makes us choose Bama as the lessor of 2 evils an easy decision. SUCK YOUR OWN TIGER DICK NIGHTLY BITCHES.

Never wanted to wipe my arse with a helmet so bad

I guess you missed he graduated from Alabama and is an alumnus

So why do the LSU fans care what Jalen does?
Pathetic melt after winning a championship.

I think it’s a class act showing respect to two great programs he was privileged to successfully lead at QB. Good luck in the future Jalen.

It's kind of Jalen's call isn't it -- which helmet (even if it's a combo, I see nothing wrong with that) -- to wear?

What a ridiculous thread.
