Kyler Murray’s time in College Station was short lived. After spending one season with the Texas A&M football program, Murray transferred to Oklahoma and the rest was history.

But he might’ve burned a bridge or two on his way out the door, according to his former teammate, Daylon Mack. Mack, who was a freshman with Murray in 2015, recalls how things soured during the 2015 game against Alabama.

“So the Alabama game, Kyle Allen throws three pick sixes, which is like some sh*t you can’t even do on Madden,” Mack said on the AgKnocks podcast. “Like that’s so insane because we lost the game by like a touchdown, 10 points or something like that. We could’ve won. We could’ve won that game. 

“So, he throws three pick sixes — he throws two pick sixes and they put Kyler in. So Kyler gets in the game, he’s doing what ever and then Kyler throws a pick, right? They take Kyler out the game and put Kyle back in. Kyle throws another pick six. They go back to Kyler. Kyler tells Spav, ‘F*ck you, I don’t want to play for you.'”

The “Spav” in question was then Aggies quarterbacks coach and offensive coordinator Jake Spavital.

But Mack and Co. weren’t even aware of the incident, which occurred in the chaos of a mid-game sideline, until after the fact.

“So, after that, we get back to the room right. I’m chilling with Kyler — I didn’t, no one knew that had happened at the time. So I come out, I’m chilling in the room or whatever and Kyler comes in and he’s like, ‘Hey, you hear what happened?’ And I was like, ‘What happened?’ He was like, ‘I told Spav ;F*ck you, I won’t play for you.” I was like, ‘Oh, man. OK.'” 

And while Murray’s exit from College Station was apparently acrimonious, things worked out fine for him in Norman, where he won the Heisman Trophy and went on to become the No. 1 overall NFL draft pick, taken by the Arizona Cardinals, where he still plays.
