Even after his transfer to Oklahoma, Jalen Hurts remains a beloved figure in the state of Alabama thanks to his performances with the Crimson Tide. Following the final day of Senior Bowl practice in Mobile, Hurts was mobbed by an avalanche of young Tide fans that wanted some personal time from the legendary college quarterback. Hurts, being the kind of person he is, took some time out for every one of the kids in attendance.

There aren't many players of his caliber that would do that.

Going back to his time at Alabama and his stint at Oklahoma, Hurts was described as a classic leader that people just flocked towards. On and off the field in Mobile, that statement rang true.

It remains to be seen if Hurts showed enough in Mobile to convince any one of the 32 teams in attendance to take a chance on him early in the draft, as there are questions about his arm talent and pocket presence.

However, what can't be questioned is his mental makeup and magnetic personality, which will serve him well in the league and in his post-football life.
