Alabama quarterback Jalen Hurts, a star-crossed hero of Nick Saban’s dynasty, has entered the transfer portal, which means he’s become college football’s version of a free agent. The question becomes, is Oklahoma in the market for a graduate transfer QB who could step in as a bridge between Kyler Murray and whatever is to come?
The San Francisco Chronicle reported that the Oakland Athletics, the baseball team that signed Murray to a $4.6 million contract last summer, expect Murray to declare this weekend for the NFL Draft. That wouldn’t necessarily mean Murray is headed to the NFL, but it would mean Murray’s college football days officially are over.
