U40: Alex Grinch is laying down the law. Hurts speaks for first time at OU

If you were waiting for Jalen Hurts to declare he came to Oklahoma to chase the school's 3rd consecutive Heisman Trophy: keep waiting. Hurts made it all about the team and as little about himself as possible Wednesday during his first press conference as an Oklahoma Sooner. Hurts was asked a ton of questions so we'll break down what type of insight we got from the day's press conference. We also spoke to Tanner Mordecai and Tanner Schafer about competing for the starting QB job. We also breakdown our time with the defense from post-practice interviews on Tuesday.
