An open letter and apology to our readers regarding Jalen Hurts #SourceGate

Thomas Walker worked very hard this weekend. His work was taken from him and a seemingly-unrelated controversy erupted.

Dear readers, contributors, and friends:

Today, as we have done the past three years, we will be publishing our open scrimmage analysis and impressions, as well as our Red Elephant Club recap. However, facts have come to light that the open scrimmage, today’s contributor and his work, Touchdown Alabama Magazine’s Stephen Smith, a scoop that Jalen Hurts will be named the starting QB, are all intertwined to a dizzying degree. And, Roll ‘Bama Roll is somewhat in the middle of this morass, as well as the “reporting” that set much of Alabama fandom ablaze.
