Jalen Hurts’ comments at Alabama’s media day have become the biggest story in college football.

Hurts vented his frustration with how Alabama handled the QB competition and the speculation surrounding his transfer.

“This is a situation that is uncontrollable,” Hurts told reporters Saturday. “Coaches can’t control this situation. They dictate who plays. But as far as variations to it, they don’t control it honestly. This whole spring ever since the game, they kind of wanted to let it play out. They kind of, I guess, didn’t think it was a thing or tried to let it die down like it wasn’t something there because it has always been the elephant in the room.

“No one came up to me the whole spring, coaches included, no one asked me how I felt,” Hurts continued. “No one asked me what was on my mind. No one asked me how I felt about the things that were going on. Nobody asked me what my future held.”

While Ohio State has yet to announce how it will handle the Urban Meyer situation, Hurts now jumps to front and center, and everybody has an opinion. Social media had a pretty strong reaction Saturday, and Paul Finebaum weighed in on Monday morning. SDS’ own Connor O’Gara respects Hurts more now than he did.

On Monday morning, ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith was the latest to weigh in, and he slammed the Alabama QB on First Take, calling Hurts “unimpressive.” Smith referenced the national championship game during his strong take.

“I think Saban should bench him; make him the second string quarterback,” Smith said. “That’s what I think he should do. Let me be very very clear. Jalen Hurts is not impressive. I’m just going to call it what it is.”

Hurts’ mother spoke out on all the backlash her son received on Saturday via a fan Facebook page. You can read her reaction here.
