Jalen Hurts father, Averion Hurts, who was also his high school football coach suggested in an interview with Bill Eichenberger of Bleacher Report that if his son was not the starting quarterback at Alabama this coming season, he could become “the biggest free agent in college football history.”

Other comments that have been said to come from Hurts father are that “I told Jalen, you f–ked up, you opened the door and put yourself in this situation,” Averion Hurts, Jalen’s dad, told B/R in an exclusive interview in the Hurts’ hometown of Channelview, Texas.
