Alabama QB Jalen Hurts picks Oklahoma over Maryland, Miami to finish college career

Maryland football fans got excited when some of them saw quarterback Jalen Hurts show up with new Terps coach Michael Locksley at last Friday’s men’s basketball game against then-No. 22 Indiana at Xfinity Center.

They got absolutely excited when several betting houses in Las Vegas listed Maryland as the favorite to become the landing spot for Hurts to play as a graduate transfer in 2019.

Reality arrived Wednesday.

Hurts announced in a story for The Players’ Tribune that he would finish his college career at Oklahoma, just as the past two Heisman Trophy winners — Baker Mayfield and Kyler Murray — did after transferring to the Sooners.
