Jalen Hurts was in Oklahoma for barely a year. We hardly knew him, and that wasn’t just because of the limited time.
Hurts was quiet. Reserved. Determined, but stoic. Detached, almost. And not necessarily just with the media. Insiders say that was Hurts’ personality within the Sooner football team, too.
Nothing wrong with that. Takes all kinds. Not everybody can be Baker Mayfield, and we wouldn’t want them to be.
But it’s too bad that Hurts didn’t connect with more people. The more you learn about Hurts, the more you realize he is someone you should know.
