Father of Alabama quarterback Tua Tagovailoa speaks on Jalen Hurts

From the moment he became the starting quarterback in 2016 to after losing the job to Tua Tagovailoa, much has been made about the psyche of Jalen Hurts.

Articles were written, rumors of a transfer dropped into the mix, and even reports on him accepting a redshirt made it public; nevertheless, the junior signal caller and native Texan has remained true to the University of Alabama. He did not leave the program. He did not accept a redshirt. And as a matter of fact, he is improving as a passer under first-year assistant, Dan Enos.

Despite what has been said of Hurts – both warranted and unwarranted – one piece of audio screams louder than the rest and it comes from the father of Tagovailoa.
