Is the goal a title or padded stats?

Drop in level to pad stats says something about his character IMO.

And again I don't believe this is true at all.

Exactly. He would have two options for leaving.

1. Sit a year, train, and enter the draft.
2. Sit a year, play for a smaller school, enter the draft.

Option 1 would definitely drop his draft grade over staying here and racking up stats another year. Option 2 would probably drop his draft grade and would definitely take a year off of his NFL career. Either way he's losing big money for what seems like a pretty trivial reason.

3. Graduate early and transfer to USC. Good.chance Helton makes Tee Martin his OC. Lol

I've seen nothing to suggest that Hurd is thinking this way. I think that talk is just VN taking the rumor and trying to reading between the lines. We all know how accurate we are when we do that.

I do agree with you that this was probably Hurd venting after a frustrating game and a friend/family member displayed poor judgment by airing it out. Some conversations aren't meant to be publicized.

"#1 - STFU! The only person you need to worry about "telling what to do" is yourself.

#2 - You have no idea who I am.

#3 - Something better change or you won't have to worry about Hurd anymore.

Put that in your pipe and smoke it."

This was 74's post on 10-06-15. So tonight makes his second reference to him leaving.

I am pretty sure that he has made more than two references to him leaving.

Hurd is a dangerous player. Opposing teams figure out early in games they have to go all out to stop him or they will have no chance. I would like to see him get a few sweeps or passes in the flat.

Sounds like Hurd it frustrated watching Chubb, Henry, and uncle Leonard get huge holes opened for them when he constantly gets hit as soon as he grabs the ball.

I love having Hurd on this team, and understand his frustrations. He needs to take a step back and see all of the injuries our OL has been hampered with this year. The OL will only continue to improve, which will make him look even better. The NFL scouts can see his talent, and that he is a complete back. He doesn't need to be in a different program with a more traditional offense for them to see his ability. Unless Butch promised him some carries from a more traditional look, like the power I, then he knew exactly what offense he was signing up for. If Butch did promise him something and isn't upholding his promises, then shame on him.

With all of that said, if Hurd wants to leave, then bye. I sure would hate to see that happen too, but I'm tired of reading about all the whining and complaining from some of these players (if it is actually true), who aren't getting their way. Too much me, me, me attitude! That's part of what's wrong with society today...when we don't get our way, we whine and complain about it and make threats until we do. I promise there are injured players currently on the roster who would love to be on that field with their team.

Hope none of this comes to fruition. GO VOLS!!!

Fournette didn't have any holes to run through Saturday night. Oh btw, Hurd almost ran for 100 yards on that defense with 2 true FR anchoring the right side.

With all this talk of our system, just realized the pistol formation from the past 2 years has not been used at all this year.

If you live your life reporting and hanging on the feelings and thoughts of 18-22 year olds then you are signing up for a rather chaotic experience.

Jalen Hurd is a great player and as frustrating as the play calling is to watch, it must be far more to run when it's your career/health on the line. I wouldn't be surprised if Jalen said it. Saying it and meaning it are two different things though.

Same here.

If he isn't happy then next man up. Too many good things going with this roster to have something like this ruin it.

Yeah, you'd think Fournette's performance against Bama would make him feel better about his stats.

Nobody could run on that field Saturday. It was horrible.

Mark Richt needs to tweet that Jalen is the starting RB for the University of Tennessee and that he's in the football complex preparing for North Texas.
