Jalen Hurts' Mom Pamela: Alabama QB 'Spoke His Truth' After Being 'Controlled'

Pamela Hurts, the mother of Alabama quarterback Jalen Hurts, said in a Facebook status Sunday her son has been "controlled" during his time with the Crimson Tide.

“Wow ignorance is blissed,” Pamela Hurts wrote (h/t TDABamaMag.com). “When has Jalen ever spoken to media about anything other than the team? When has he ever whined, pouted or talk about what 'y’all' don’t know takes place behind the scenes? There’s a reason why players aren’t allowed to speak to the media. Jalen spoke his truth, finally, after 3 years of being compliant and controlled. You have no idea what is and has been going on—and most likely, never will.
