Odds Jalen Hurts follows Brent Key to Georgia Tech?

[Texas_Wreck53]

Just curious what posters think. I was reading an article about where they think Hurts would go and they said daU would be his speculative 5th choice. It seems to me GT would be a better fit if Key came here. I know Key is no done deal.

I hope this hasn’t been discussed in-depth in one of the threads. If so mods can delete this.

I could see him following Key but only if he was an offensive lineman. I would rather an offensive lineman follow him

I think Collins and Patenaude would have to sell their asses off to get Hurts to come here and be in Atlanta for a year but Key would be the link. I guess to me it’s not necessarily causation just correlation of key coming then hurts coming.

Very very small chance, I would guess.

I'm sure the NCAA will just let us bump the scholarship limit to 105 because of the coaching transition....

I think Coach Key stays at Alabama and so does Jalen Hurts

Hurts has applied to 'Bama's Masters in Sports Management program. All signs point to him returning to 'Bama next year.

I should have put that option too

That’s a solid backup plan. He should apply. We all had our backup schools. Alabama is probably his.

So they have a team meeting with the entire coaching staff except the OL coach. All teams are in their offseason program except 2 teams: Bama & Clemson. What team does Key coach for?

Probably pretty low, the Key connection is our big in with him. I think he could start on most teams so the world is his oyster so to speak. I think we have a better chance with the ND kid just because he is a little more under-the-radar of a lot of schools.

Key is coming to GT. This is basically a known fact now.

If you don't want to believe the multiple outlets that are reporting it, look at the fact that there is still a vacant GT assistant coaching position yet the coaching staff has been presented as complete. That means someone has already been hired but is doing something else at the moment... so that means it's either a Bama OL coach, a Clemson OL coach, or a NFL OL coach whose team is still in the playoffs.

If you made a poll about the odds Key isn't GT's next OL coach, the only reasonable odds are less than 1%.

I hope you're right about Coach Key The pessimistic side of me is worried that he will stay at Alabama

I hope Coach Key is coming to GT but i'm nervous and worried that he wont

I think Hurts would've pulled a Bryant if he was leaving. Really respect his commitment to the team. Also liked how he put the dagger into UGa this year....

About the same as me winning the power ball....

Well, if we have decided we want to chunk the ball now, then Hurts ain't the guy. Anyway, he is going to a big time program with legitimate national pretensions and Miami might be the place. Except Miami likes to toss it around, too. He is an exceptional athlete with that QB curse. Knowing Saban's way, he might keep him there.

If Key does come over I hope he can bring Paris Johnson and Tate Ratledge from the 2020 recruiting class with a few other 4 and 5 star guys.

I think Jalen may go to Houston to play for their new coach, Holgorsen (the previous WV coach). He is considered a QB whisperer. Jalen is from that area.

Option 2 would be him going to play for Kiffin. Not sure what option 3 would be.

I don't think he would come to GT, but we should already be able to find out what business grad schools he has applied for.
