Jalen Hurts is the king of the football world this morning. His journey is one every young person in this country should aspire to follow in whatever their specific aspirations are in life.
How unfortunate someone like Jalen isn’t the role model for the young males in this country, but instead for some depressing inexplicable reason….so many of our young men aspire to be lazy pussy grabbing con artist crypto Ponzi grifters or worse.
Jalen’s integrity, his character, his dogged belief in himself are the qualities we as a country used to generationally embrace. But not so much anymore.
How sad for our country.
The manner in which Jalen handled his benching by Coach Saben at Alabama should be a mini-documentary for every young person in this country to watch.
He didn’t pout. He didn’t immediately transfer. He simply went to work and incrementally made the throwing part of his game better. Not only as a college player, but as a young NFL quarterback.
I’m so happy for Jalen…and proud that I was able to personally witness his last college season at OU.
Jalen Hurts…you and every one of your teammates are kings of the NFL football world this morning.
Embrace it.
Mike J
