    And I disagree that Saban is simply a good coach. He may be the best to ever coach college football.


    And this is also off topic. Stick with a discussion of Jalen Hurts transferring, or start a new thread.
    There's your bias again. It automatically invalidates your claim.

    If Saban left Alabama and went to another school, you'd be just like the idiots in Cleveland that burned Lebron James jerseys when he left for Miami.

    To constantly whine about off topic, you make off topic posts a lot. Typical Alabama fan. It's wrong for you but OK for me mentality.

    Quitting because you were replaced is doing well? Is that taught in a course at Alabama?

    Transferring after he graduated is not rare, especially for someone who will likely not start. Hurts is a competitor. He wants to play and compete.

    While at Alabama, he competed and lost. When he lost, he quit and ran to somewhere else. You, being admittedly biased, defends him being a quitter.

    While at Alabama he was 26-2 as a starter. Then he lost the starting position in January of 2017 and transferred in January of 2018.

    While at Alabama he was replaced, got his panties in a wad, and quit. That bias is coming through again. Kelly Bryant was 12-2 as a starter.

    Alabama and Clemson have something in common. Both had a quarterback that competed against each other, both of those quarterbacks were replaced, and both quit after that. When it happened is irrelevant unless you're going to claim the level of which someone is a quitter is based on a date.

    He never got his panties in a wad. He was supportive of Tua.

    You are welcome to your opinion of him. I have a different one. I haven't seen anyone agreeing with your opinion, including people from both universities, teammates, and sports writers.

    He quit, PERIOD.

    The Clemson people where I live called both Bryant and Hurts quitters. You have your opinion and have also admitted you're biased which discredits your opinion. That bias doesn't let you look objectively at the facts.

    Well good for the Clemson people where you live. Of course, they are likely talking about Bryant, who quit immediately upon being benched. THAT is a quitter. Staying and helping the team, like Hurts did is a different matter, whether you can see it or not. Bryant got his panties in a wad. Hurts worked for the good of the team. And he was there when Alabama needed him in the SEC Championship.

    The people at OU thought enough of Hurts to offer him a scholarship. And there is talk of OU potentially having 3 Heisman winners in a row.

    Really, without Googling, how many past Heisman Trophy winners can you name in sequential order going back in time starting with 2017?

    I don't know what will happen. I know Lincoln Riley has taken transfer QBs and done wonder with them. Both Kyler Murray and Baker Mayfield were transfers from other schools.

    I wish Hurts well.

    Not many. But I can name dozens of former Alabama players. That is what fans do. And hurts has a LOT of fans from his time with the Crimson Tide.

    Sure you can, just like "cfm" can name Mississippi players, and the other guy Oklahoma, but that doesn't make them memorable outside of Alabama, Mississippi, or Oklahoma. Most college football fans couldn't tell you who Hurt was let alone where he will be next year
