Plug and Play for ol' Riley. Can they have 3 Heisman QBS back to back to back?

That's great for him! Happy to see him at a big time program!

Hopefully they'll find a Defense to help him out...

Does OU have any QBs they have recruited and signed as Freshmen?

I'm wondering how good a fit Hurts is for the OU offense. Of course Riley knows way more than me about what he's looking for but I'm just having trouble picturing hurts in that offense. I'm sure hurts is thinking running this offense will get my drafted. Guess we'll find out in the fall.

Yea it would have been a travesty in he had come to a low-brow program like MSU, huh?***

I think it'll depend on which Hurts they get... If they get 2016/2017 Jalen, OU is in trouble. If they get the 2018 version (small sample size), they'll be a legit CFP threat (provided they find a D)...

Actually, I had TCU, Houston, and Maryland in mind... I never thought he'd stay in conference...

I thought he would have went to OSU. No idea, but figured OSU or OU.

Yeah I'm not saying he can't do it, but I'm just not seeing it.

Agreed. It's great for Hurts he gets a chance to prove doubters wrong throwing. However, he's not been coached or played well enough to run an air attack. He needs to learn how to sit in the pocket. make reads, and complete the pass. He'd rather run that pass. There is no way OU wins many shootouts with Jalen at Qb.

Be funny he did win the Heisman and beat Bama in the play offs. Also be bad for Tua but funny for Bama is Tua is hurt and cannot play in the game.

Maybe he can get film of our RPO with Fitz.******

That was certainly the book on him up until this year. But this year (few moments) may have been an anomaly.

A few moments is the only time he's been a successful passer.

If he wants to showcase his passing skills for the NFL scouts, he should have gone to Washington State. Leach would let him throw it all over the place.

10-2 at best. At best

those Bama Ds were more 26-2 than jalen

The real question is who is tua?s backup? Tua quit & didn?t finish 3 toughest games of season so bama got more qbs?

That's a fact re: Jalen/D.... also, Tua didn't finish ANY games this season, to be accurate...

1. Tua Tagovailoa
2. Mac Jones
3. Taulia Tagovailoa
4. Paul Tyson

So no Bama doesn't have a serviceble backup just bodies.

"Serviceable" has variant meanings depending on the program...

Now, I'm not saying Bammer will average Fitty a game in '19, nor would I dare say they'll beat up on the SEC at a clip of 30+ per game like this past season...

But I do think with the way the schedule sets up and with the talent returning, they'll have a great shot at replacing a few pieces and making a run in the post season...

With big brother Tua at Qb you'll average a high number. The other poster brought up an interesting point with injury though. You guys don't have a winning backup. I think the team will return to run heavy this upcoming season for this very reason. I think the true RPO will be situational.

I dunno many teams that do have a “winning backup”, but if it means going “run heavy”, I’m all for it. I’m not a big fan of the type offense Bammer ran this past year.

I’d rather see them beat people up.
