Jalen Hurts will transfer to Oklahoma for senior season.
- Thread starter 1fansopinion
- Start date
Funny thing is, I believe in an interview their five star QB recruit stated that he was told that they would not be taking a transfer qb. He was led to believe he had a legitimate shot to start as a true freshman.
We need a special counsel investigation!!
I have to believe Riley talked to their freshman QB and let him know beforehand that this opportunity opened up for them.
OU lost 4 offensive lineman. Will be interesting. Their 1st game is against Houston. See that as a loss.
NO way they lose to Houston, the defense for OU will be to overpowering holding Houston to 55 points. Hurts and company will easily score 56.
Bookie will probably be playing more year.NO way they lose to Houston, the defense for OU will be to overpowering holding Houston to 55 points. Hurts and company will easily score 56.
Meanwhile, OU is blocking Kendall Hunter from transferring to West Virginia.

I just now realized that both OU Heisman winners were transfers. Baker from Texas Tech and Kyler from Texas A&M.
Does anyone know which year’s recruiting class produced that last OU high school commit that actually started the majority of the season?
At one point Riley evaluated 3 transfer type QB's that were candidates for OU and after evaluating them he told our 5 star QB that he would not bring in another 5 star QB that would compete with him. And Riley didn't even offer the kid from Georgia nor the other QB....not even sure who that was but speculation was a QB from ND. After evaluation each transfer QB, Riley strongly preferred Hurt over the other two. He has only one year of eligibility and the kid from Georgia had 3 years of eligibility which would have conflicted with what Riley had told Rattler our incoming 5 star QB. That was agreeable with Rattler.
They are hesitant because he is looking at transfering to a Big 12 school. They don't want to have an opposing player that knows all of their plays, hand signals, tendencies, and other inside information that could be used against them. The unfair part is that the school objects for a player going to another Big 12 school, but lets one of their coaches move to another Big 12 school (Texas Tech) with no objection. This is unfair on OU's part.
They didn't have a problem with it when they were getting Mayfield.
Well Mayfield wasn't recruited....he walked on without the knowledge of OU and the coaching staff. Tech objected like OU did and eventually he was granted an additional year of eligibility, which Kendall probably will also. At this time it doesn't appear to be a real problem or net loss for OU. With his reputation as a coach...especially offensive coach and his reputation of QB development he was able to get the replacement QB he wanted and that was Hurts.
OU removed their block, he is free to attend WVU and play next year.
There is no question OU is coming out ahead, just didn’t understand why they would block him from WVU.
I will throw up if he wins the heisman next year and that woukd be the 3rd in a row for those guys.. AM for Heisman!!
Here is a hot take. Lincoln Reilly is a fraud. Just like his dad. We will destroy ou in 2021 and 2022 if he is still there.
Not rooting against him in any way shape or form, in fact CFB just got more interesting, but I just don't think that highly of him as a QB in general. However, he'll go from SEC (IE-NFL) defenses to high school defenses, and he'll have more talent on his team than most he plays against, sans Texas, so he also might really light it up there. It'll be interesting. I could see it going all the way, and or crashing and burning, but I'll watch.
I’d love it if you were right but I’m not counting on that to happen. If we were to win then I’d have to assume that it’s a close win.
Sounds like the guy knows how to run a big time football program. Why settle for having to start a true freshman quarterback or a mediocre player already on the roster. Hurts has proven to be a good qb, I don't see any reason why you wouldn't take him.
