 My gut, my heart, it's all in football. Kyler Murray is going to measure in under 5'10", and he's 195 pounds listed. At no point when I watched the University of Oklahoma this year, was I, did I ever think I was watching a future pro quarterback? At the end of the day, I'm a football player. Who do you want to meet tomorrow? Ah, I had to be the notorious Connor McGregor for sure. Tom Brady, Russell Wilson, LeBron, Drake, Katy Perry. There's going to be a lot of people that, it's going to be a ridiculous amount of JZ's around the higher class people in the world. This is an 18 year old Kyler Murray talking about who he wants to meet at the Espeys after he was named athlete of the year. Born in Bedford, Texas, Murray got to this point after a spectacular career at Allen High School. What a high school career, three years undefeated record. Murray had 42 wins and zero losses as a starter and won three state championships. He was a five star recruit as a quarterback, but Murray also generated some national attention in another sport. Baseball was also a passion for Kyler Murray. As a dual sport athlete, Murray was considered to be one of the best prospects in the 2015 MLB draft. Eventually, Murray chose to forgo the draft and commit to Texas A&M to play both sports. As a true freshman, Murray competed with then sophomore quarterback Kyle Allen for the starting job in 2015. Both QBs interchanged as a starter all season. That, along with frustration with the coaching staff, led to Allen transferring to the University of Houston. Even though this left Murray as the clear cut starter, it was on Christmas Eve of 2015, just a couple weeks after Allen transferred, where Murray made a life changing decision. He transferred to Oklahoma. Kyler Murray is transferring from Texas A&M to Oklahoma. Due to NCAA regulations, Murray was ineligible to compete in athletics for the 2016 season. And though baseball was no issue for Murray in 2017, in football, he still had to sit behind Baker Mayfield. This year's Heisman Trophy winner is Baker Mayfield of the University of Oklahoma. But finally, in 2018, Kyler Murray got his shot. Kyler, most of the playmakers are back on this offense. How good of an offense do you guys have right now? I mean, I feel we can be very dangerous. Murray was wonderful for the Sooners. In 2018, he threw for over 4,300 yards, 42 touchdowns, and also racked up over 1,000 yards on the ground. But despite his stats and his accolades, the 2018 Heisman Trophy is awarded to Kyler Murray. Murray was faced with an internal battle. The Oakland Athletics selected Murray 9th overall in the 2018 MOB Draft. Now a decision was needed to be made, play baseball or football. Me and you both love more than one sport. Which one do you love more? I'm picking up a baseball bat and I'm not looking back. Would you agree that you can't do both? Yeah, yeah. I love to, yeah. After taking some time to decide, Murray announced that he would be entering the NFL draft. This is obviously his passion, but he's making a colossal mistake. I think he's making the right move choosing football. Whatever is said about his decision, his height, or his character. Leadership, not good. Study habits, not good. The board work below not good. Kyler Murray is out to prove that he's ready to lead an NFL franchise. If I, you know, if my name was called number one, I'd be ready to go for sure. And potentially be the first player ever to your point that's ever been drafted. Incredible. In the first round in both, both sports. Rolls right, directing, traffic scrambles to the edge. Gonna try to run it. Track. Whoa, it's gone! I was born a football player. I love this game and I'm 100% in.
