You don’t see this very often, if ever.
Jalen Hurts spent three seasons as a highly-respected and valued member of the Alabama football program both on and off the field, the first two as the Crimson Tide’s starting quarterback. After losing the starting job to eventual Heisman Trophy runner-up Tua Tagovailoa, Hurts confirmed earlier this week, after months worth of speculation, that he would be taking a graduate transfer out of Alabama and playing his final season at Oklahoma.
A day after the transfer was announced, Alabama took to Twitter to say goodbye to a player who was very integral in the program’s success the last three-plus years.
For every pass, every run, every game winner. Thank you Jalen. @JalenHurts #OutworkYesterday#RollTide pic.twitter.com/w4rXJaFSgI

Bravo, Alabama. Very classy, very well-done.
