Alabama quarterback Jalen Hurts showered with loud ovation at graduation

He never gave up on the University of Alabama and like moments at Bryant-Denny Stadium, the student body and fans of the program honored him royally this morning as he marched with his undergraduate degree.

Jalen Hurts relished the spotlight in the fourth quarter of the Southeastern Conference Championship Game; however, he smiled brightly upon hearing his name called for his bachelor’s degree in public relations.

Per a video captured by UA, a loud burst of excitement filled Coleman Coliseum when President Bell called Hurts’ name.

Standing ovation when he takes the field. Standing ovation when he walks the stage.
