He previously played for the [[Alabama Crimson Tide football|Alabama Crimson Tide]].<br />
<br />
==Early years==<br />
Hurts attended [[Channelview High School]] in [[Channelview, Texas]].<ref>{{cite news|title=Texas school bus crashes in Alabama: Channelview grad, Alabama QB Jalen Hurts responds|url=https://www.al.com/news/index.ssf/2018/03/school_bus_crash_in_alabama_ch.html|publisher=[[Advance Publications]]|last=Gore|first=Leada|date=March 13, 2018|accessdate=October 24, 2018}}</ref> Hurts's father, Averion, was the [[high school football|football]] coach at Channelview High School throughout his sons' high school careers. As a senior, he passed for 2,384 yards with 26 [[touchdown]] passes and rushed for 1,391 yards and 25 touchdowns. Hurts was a second-team all-district selection as a sophomore and was named the District 21-6A Overall MVP as a junior during his high school playing years. He played against the [[Texas A&M]] freshman standout running back [[Trayveon Williams]] throughout his high school career. Hurts was rated as a four-star recruit and was ranked among the top dual-threat quarterbacks in the Class of 2016.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://n.rivals.com/content/prospects/1648|title=Jalen Hurts Recruiting Profile|work=Rivals.com|accessdate=August 7, 2017}}</ref> Although [[Texas A&M]] made a strong push to recruit Hurts after the departure of their starting quarterback, [[Kyler Murray]], they ultimately failed in their efforts after Hurts proceeded to commit to the [[University of Alabama]] on June 5, 2015. He was recruited by Alabama's Defensive Line Coach Bo Davis and Offensive Coordinator [[Lane Kiffin]].<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.al.com/alabamafootball/index.ssf/2015/06/jalen_hurts_alabama_qb.html |title=Texas dual-threat QB Jalen Hurts commits to Alabama |website=AL.com}}</ref> Hurts finished high school academically ranking 39th in his class. <br />

In 2017, Hurts led the [[2017 Alabama Crimson Tide football team|Tide]] to a 13–1 season, giving them a playoff spot as a #4 seed, where they played [[2017 Clemson Tigers football team|Clemson]] in the [[2018 Sugar Bowl]].

===Junior season===<br />
After Tagovailoa helped lead the Crimson Tide to a comeback victory in the National Championship the year before, questions arose if Hurts would remain the starting quarterback for Alabama.<ref>{{Cite news |url=https://www.kentucky.com/sports/college/SEC/article217397365.html |title=Who will be Alabama’s starting QB? ‘I wish we could talk about something else,’ Saban says |work=Kentucky.com |access-date=October 8, 2018 |language=en}}</ref> In the season opener against Louisville, Tagovailoa was the starter.

'''''Dude Perfect''''' is an American [[sports]] [[entertainment]] group based on [[YouTube]], and consists of twins Coby and Cory Cotton, Garrett Hilbert, Cody Jones, and Tyler Toney; all former high school basketball players<ref name="Daily Mail">{{cite news|url=http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1215511/Dude-perfect-Is-really-amazing-basketball-shot-entire-world.html|title='Dude, perfect!' Is this really the most amazing basketball shot in the entire world?|newspaper=[[Daily Mail]]|date=September 23, 2009|accessdate=January 11, 2014}}</ref> and college roommates at [[Texas A&M University]].<ref name="Dallas Observer">{{cite news|last=Nicholson|first=Eric|url=http://www.dallasobserver.com/news/watch-dude-perfect-hit-a-500-foot-trick-shot-from-reunion-tower-7121459|title=Watch Dude Perfect Hit a 500-Foot Trick Shot from Reunion Tower|newspaper=[[Dallas Observer]]|date=January 2, 2014|accessdate=January 11, 2014}}</ref><br />
<br />
They are widely known for their [[extreme sports]] methods, including stunt-based trick shots, and are also involved in comedy with their "Stereotypes" series, in which they poke fun at common stereotypes, mostly in the sports world. Occasionally, the group also does non-profitable and [[charity (practice)|charitable]] actions, once collaborating with [[Make-A-Wish]].<br />
<br />
The group commented that their shots typically relied more on [[American football]] skills than basketball.<ref name="CBS News">{{cite web|url=http://www.cbsnews.com/news/trick-b-ball-shots-turn-youtube-sensation/|title=Trick B-Ball Shots Turn YouTube Sensation|work=[[CBS News]]|date=September 28, 2009|accessdate=January 11, 2014}}</ref> They have broken several [[Guinness World Records]] themselves, and have over 2 billion total views and 12 million subscribers as of September 2016.<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
<br />
===Early years and formation===<br />
The group was betting on sandwiches via basketball shots in their backyard, which were eventually recorded on camera, and a video of trick shots at Toney's ranch was eventually released on YouTube.<ref name="TAMU" /> Within a week, the video received 100,000 views. When asked about the name, Toney stated,<ref name="Star Local" /><br />
<br />
{{bquote|Our camera guy, Sean, set the camera down on a ledge. When he turned on the camera, Tyler was already in the frame and he just said "dude, perfect" and said that he barely had to move the camera. When we went back to edit the video, we heard that the twins (Coby and Cory) had the mindset to brand this and called it Dude Perfect.}}<br />
<br />
Afterwards, a trick shot video from the Christian summer camp [[Sky Ranch]] was released, which, as of June 2015, has over 13.9 million views.<ref>{{cite web|author=Dude Perfect|url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T4giMyqv0qc|title=Trick Shot Basketball {{!}} Dude Perfect {{!}} Summer Camp|publisher=[[YouTube]]|date=August 30, 2009|accessdate=October 21, 2014}}</ref> For every 100,000 views the video received, Dude Perfect pledged to sponsor a child from [[Compassion International]].<ref name="TAMU">{{cite web|last=Ralston|first=Katy|url=http://tamunews.tamu.edu/dude-perfect-becomes-national-sensation/|title=‘Dude Perfect’ Becomes National Sensation|publisher=[[Texas A&M University]]|accessdate=January 11, 2014}}</ref> Afterwards, [[ESPN]]'s ''[[E:60]]'' contacted the group for a segment, and on the third floor of Texas A&M's [[Kyle Field]], Toney converted a shot, which traveled 3.9 seconds, which was a world record at the time. The shot prompted television appearances on ESPN's ''[[First Take (TV series)|First Take]]'', ''[[Pardon the Interruption]]'', ''[[Around the Horn]]'' and ''[[SportsNation (TV series)|SportsNation]]''.<br />
<br />
====Introduction of Panda mascot====<br />
Eventually, Dude Perfect introduced the Panda mascot, who "developed a cult following at [[Texas A&M Aggies men's basketball|A&M basketball]] games" when taunting players of the opposing team.<ref name="Star Local">{{cite web|last=Welch|first=Matt|url=http://starlocalmedia.com/sports/hoop-dreams-local-goes-from-online-sensation-to-nationwide-phenomenon/article_082fe9d7-e9f7-5dd1-84a7-9acf3a7ca8f6.html|title=Hoop Dreams: Local goes from online sensation to nationwide phenomenon|publisher=Star Local Media|date=June 18, 2011|accessdate=January 13, 2014}}</ref><br />
<br />
===Popular follower increase===<br />

<br />
==Channel series==<br />
<br />
===Regular videos===<br />
Regular videos from Dude Perfect consist of the [[extreme sports]] genre. They are mostly [[stunt]]-based trick shots based on [[American football]] techniques and manuevers, but also consists of go-karts, [[Nerf]] shots, contraptions, and more.<br />
<br />
===Stereotypes===<br />
"Stereotypes" is a [[satirical]] series where the group acts out the usual stereotypes of different subjects, such as pick-up basketball, softball, fishing, golf, driving (which guest-starred NASCAR driver [[Dale Earnhardt Jr.]]), and ''[[Madden NFL]]'' video game players. One constant running gag in each of the series' videos is the "Rage Monster" stereotype, where Ty portrays a guy who goes on a rampage over innocent incidents.<br />
<br />
===Contests===<br />
<br />
====Battles====<br />
"Battles" is a "last man standing" competition where the members compete in a [[tournament]]-style battle, usually sometimes for a prize, item, or trophy. Garrett Hilbert has a running gag before each battle when he proclaims, "I'm gonna make a bold prediction, he ain't winning" in reference to Coby Cotton who has yet to win a battle. The closest Coby has come to winning a battle were on two occasions: in the Endless Ducker iPhone battle, in which he lost to his brother Cory by one point; and the Basketball Arcade battle, in which Coby had three chances to hit one of five targets to win the battle (he missed all three chances).<br />
<br />
====Face-Off====<br />
Face-Off videos are featured on the [[Whistle Sports Network]] YouTube Channel. In these Face-Off videos the dudes draw two people to Face-Off and they draw a sideline announcer to commentate the Face-Off.<br />
<br />
While Coby has yet to win a battle, he is the winningest member of the Dude Perfect team in regards to face-offs; he has competed in six face-offs and won four of them.<br />

<br />
====Record====<br />
In 2009, the group set the world record for the longest basketball shot after shooting from the third deck of Kyle Field. The record was jeopardized by Legendary Shots, who made a shot from [[Birmingham, Alabama]]'s [[Vulcan statue]], but in October 2010, Dude Perfect extended their record with a "cross-tower" shot, which was {{convert|216|ft|m}} high, and the basket was {{convert|150|ft|m|abbr=on}} away from the tower's base.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/2010/10/01/dude-perfect-shatters-longest-shot-record/|title=Dude Perfect shatters longest shot record|work=[[NBC Sports]]|date=October 1, 2010|accessdate=January 11, 2014}}</ref> In March 2011, Dude Perfect unofficially{{ref|Official record|[a]}} extended the record with a shot from the top of [[NRG Stadium]], which lasted 5.3 seconds.<ref name="Star Local" /><ref>{{cite web|last=Goodman|first=William|url=http://www.cbsnews.com/news/dude-perfect-make-alleged-new-world-record-basketball-shot-at-reliant-stadium/|title="Dude Perfect" make alleged new world record basketball shot at Reliant Stadium|publisher=[[CBS News]]|date=March 23, 2011|accessdate=January 11, 2014}}</ref> In January 2014, the group successfully attempted a shot from the {{convert|561|ft|m|abbr=on}}-high [[Reunion Tower]], with Jones and Hilbert holding the basket at the base of the tower.<ref name="Dallas Observer" /><br />
<br />
==Controversy==<br />
Despite their success, questions arose over the legitimacy of the group's tricks; ''[[Good Morning America]]'' hosted a segment about the tricks and whether they were real,<ref>{{cite news|last=Chivers|first=Tom|url=http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/northamerica/usa/6223653/YouTube-sensation-Dude-Perfects-worlds-longest-basketball-shot-real-or-fake.html|title=YouTube sensation Dude Perfect's 'world's longest basketball shot' - real or fake?|newspaper=[[The Daily Telegraph]]|date=September 23, 2009|accessdate=January 11, 2014}}</ref> though experts contacted by ''GMA'' stated they were unable to find evidence of the tricks being fake.<ref name="Daily Mail" /> Regarding the doubts, Jones stated, "We love it when people say it’s fake because it makes the shots seem even more ridiculously impossible; and we get more publicity and hits on YouTube so we love the mystery of knowing whether it’s real or fake."<ref name="TAMU" /> Toney, Coby and Cory Cotton stated that it takes multiple attempts when filming before successfully converting the final shots.<ref name="CBS News" /><br />
<br />
==Notes==<br />
:<sup>{{note|Official record|[a]}}</sup> ''[[Guinness World Records]]'' has not recognized Dude Perfect as the record holder; Thunder Law of the [[Harlem Globetrotters]] officially holds the record with a {{convert|33.45|m|ft|abbr=on}} shot at [[US Airways Center]] in Phoenix, Arizona, USA, on November 11, 2013.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/world-records/1000/longest-basketball-shot|title=Longest basketball shot|work=[[Guinness World Records]]|accessdate=January 15, 2014}}</ref><br />

'''''Dude Perfect''''' is an American [[sports]] [[entertainment]] group based on [[YouTube]], and consists of twins Coby and Cory Cotton, Garrett Hilbert, Cody Jones, and Tyler Toney; all former high school basketball players<ref name="Daily Mail">{{cite news|url=http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1215511/Dude-perfect-Is-really-amazing-basketball-shot-entire-world.html|title='Dude, perfect!'

<br />
They are widely known for their [[extreme sports]] methods, including stunt-based trick shots, and are also involved in comedy with their "Stereotypes" series, in which they poke fun at common stereotypes, mostly in the sports world. Occasionally, the group also does non-profitable and [[charity (practice)|charitable]] actions, once collaborating with [[Make-A-Wish]].<br />
<br />
The group commented that their shots typically relied more on [[American football]] skills than basketball.<ref name="CBS News">{{cite web|url=http://www.cbsnews.com/news/trick-b-ball-shots-turn-youtube-sensation/|title=Trick B-Ball Shots Turn YouTube Sensation|work=[[CBS News]]|date=September 28, 2009|accessdate=January 11, 2014}}</ref> They have broken several [[Guinness World Records]] themselves, and have over 2 billion total views and 12 million subscribers as of September 2016.<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
<br />
===Early years and formation===<br />
The group was betting on sandwiches via basketball shots in their backyard, which were eventually recorded on camera, and a video of trick shots at Toney's ranch was eventually released on YouTube.<ref name="TAMU" /> Within a week, the video received 100,000 views. When asked about the name, Toney stated,<ref name="Star Local" /><br />
<br />
{{bquote|Our camera guy, Sean, set the camera down on a ledge. When he turned on the camera, Tyler was already in the frame and he just said "dude, perfect" and said that he barely had to move the camera. When we went back to edit the video, we heard that the twins (Coby and Cory) had the mindset to brand this and called it Dude Perfect.}}<br />
<br />
Afterwards, a trick shot video from the Christian summer camp [[Sky Ranch]] was released, which, as of June 2015, has over 13.9 million views.<ref>{{cite web|author=Dude Perfect|url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T4giMyqv0qc|title=Trick Shot Basketball {{!}} Dude Perfect {{!}} Summer Camp|publisher=[[YouTube]]|date=August 30, 2009|accessdate=October 21, 2014}}</ref> For every 100,000 views the video received, Dude Perfect pledged to sponsor a child from [[Compassion International]].<ref name="TAMU">{{cite web|last=Ralston|first=Katy|url=http://tamunews.tamu.edu/dude-perfect-becomes-national-sensation/|title=‘Dude Perfect’ Becomes National Sensation|publisher=[[Texas A&M University]]|accessdate=January 11, 2014}}</ref> Afterwards, [[ESPN]]'s ''[[E:60]]'' contacted the group for a segment, and on the third floor of Texas A&M's [[Kyle Field]], Toney converted a shot, which traveled 3.9 seconds, which was a world record at the time. The shot prompted television appearances on ESPN's ''[[First Take (TV series)|First Take]]'', ''[[Pardon the Interruption]]'', ''[[Around the Horn]]'' and ''[[SportsNation (TV series)|SportsNation]]''.<br />
<br />
====Introduction of Panda mascot====<br />
Eventually, Dude Perfect introduced the Panda mascot, who "developed a cult following at [[Texas A&M Aggies men's basketball|A&M basketball]] games" when taunting players of the opposing team.<ref name="Star Local">{{cite web|last=Welch|first=Matt|url=http://starlocalmedia.com/sports/hoop-dreams-local-goes-from-online-sensation-to-nationwide-phenomenon/article_082fe9d7-e9f7-5dd1-84a7-9acf3a7ca8f6.html|title=Hoop Dreams: Local goes from online sensation to nationwide phenomenon|publisher=Star Local Media|date=June 18, 2011|accessdate=January 13, 2014}}</ref><br />

====Record====<br />
In 2009, the group set the world record for the longest basketball shot after shooting from the third deck of Kyle Field. The record was jeopardized by Legendary Shots, who made a shot from [[Birmingham, Alabama]]'s [[Vulcan statue]], but in October 2010, Dude Perfect extended their record with a "cross-tower" shot, which was {{convert|216|ft|m}} high, and the basket was {{convert|150|ft|m|abbr=on}} away from the tower's base.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/2010/10/01/dude-perfect-shatters-longest-shot-record/|title=Dude Perfect shatters longest shot record|work=[[NBC Sports]]|date=October 1, 2010|accessdate=January 11, 2014}}</ref> In March 2011, Dude Perfect unofficially{{ref|Official record|[a]}} extended the record with a shot from the top of [[NRG Stadium]], which lasted 5.3 seconds.<ref name="Star Local" /><ref>{{cite web|last=Goodman|first=William|url=http://www.cbsnews.com/news/dude-perfect-make-alleged-new-world-record-basketball-shot-at-reliant-stadium/|title="Dude Perfect" make alleged new world record basketball shot at Reliant Stadium|publisher=[[CBS News]]|date=March 23, 2011|accessdate=January 11, 2014}}</ref> In January 2014, the group successfully attempted a shot from the {{convert|561|ft|m|abbr=on}}-high [[Reunion Tower]], with Jones and Hilbert holding the basket at the base of the tower.<ref name="Dallas Observer" /><br />

'''''Dude Perfect''''' is an American [[sports]] [[entertainment]] group based on [[YouTube]], and consists of twins Coby and Cory Cotton, Garrett Hilbert, Cody Jones, and Tyler Toney; all former high school basketball players<ref name="Daily Mail">{{cite news|url=http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1215511/Dude-perfect-Is-really-amazing-basketball-shot-entire-world.html|title='Dude, perfect!'

<br />
They are widely known for their [[extreme sports]] methods, including stunt-based trick shots, and are also involved in comedy with their "Stereotypes" series, in which they poke fun at common stereotypes, mostly in the sports world. Occasionally, the group also does non-profitable and [[charity (practice)|charitable]] actions, once collaborating with [[Make-A-Wish]].<br />
<br />
The group commented that their shots typically relied more on [[American football]] skills than basketball.<ref name="CBS News">{{cite web|url=http://www.cbsnews.com/news/trick-b-ball-shots-turn-youtube-sensation/|title=Trick B-Ball Shots Turn YouTube Sensation|work=[[CBS News]]|date=September 28, 2009|accessdate=January 11, 2014}}</ref> They have broken several [[Guinness World Records]] themselves, and have over 2 billion total views and 11 million subscribers as of August 2016.<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
===Early years and formation===<br />
The group was betting on sandwiches via basketball shots in their backyard, which were eventually recorded on camera, and a video of trick shots at Toney's ranch was eventually released on YouTube.<ref name="TAMU" /> Within a week, the video received 100,000 views. When asked about the name, Toney stated,<ref name="Star Local" /><br />
<br />
{{bquote|Our camera guy, Sean, set the camera down on a ledge. When he turned on the camera, Tyler was already in the frame and he just said "dude, perfect" and said that he barely had to move the camera. When we went back to edit the video, we heard that the twins (Coby and Cory) had the mindset to brand this and called it Dude Perfect.}}<br />
<br />
Afterwards, a trick shot video from the Christian summer camp [[Sky Ranch]] was released, which, as of June 2015, has over 13.9 million views.<ref>{{cite web|author=Dude Perfect|url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T4giMyqv0qc|title=Trick Shot Basketball {{!}} Dude Perfect {{!}} Summer Camp|publisher=[[YouTube]]|date=August 30, 2009|accessdate=October 21, 2014}}</ref> For every 100,000 views the video received, Dude Perfect pledged to sponsor a child from [[Compassion International]].<ref name="TAMU">{{cite web|last=Ralston|first=Katy|url=http://tamunews.tamu.edu/dude-perfect-becomes-national-sensation/|title=‘Dude Perfect’ Becomes National Sensation|publisher=[[Texas A&M University]]|accessdate=January 11, 2014}}</ref> Afterwards, [[ESPN]]'s ''[[E:60]]'' contacted the group for a segment, and on the third floor of Texas A&M's [[Kyle Field]], Toney converted a shot, which traveled 3.9 seconds, which was a world record at the time. The shot prompted television appearances on ESPN's ''[[First Take (TV series)|First Take]]'', ''[[Pardon the Interruption]]'', ''[[Around the Horn]]'' and ''[[SportsNation (TV series)|SportsNation]]''.<br />
<br />
====Introduction of Panda mascot====<br />
