Alabama WR Richard Mullaney hurdles Ole Miss defender to score TD (Video)
Alabama receiver Richard Mullaney hurdled an Ole Miss defender to score a touchdown and debunked the myth that white men can’t jump.
Richard Mullaney isn’t the most high profile of Alabama players. On a roster riddled with future NFL players and five-star recruits, it’s easy to overlook him, but not against Ole Miss, and not after he just hurdled a defender to score a touchdown.

See, white men can jump so we can put an end to that myth.
But in all seriousness, Alabama needed this score in a bad way with the offense not able to get much going with Cooper Bateman at quarterback and the Rebels defense playing dominant football, led by Robert Nkemdiche.
After Nick Saban put Jake Coker in at quarterback, the player who started the first two games of the year for the Crimson Tide, he created a spark and got the Tide within one score at halftime. Coker made a huge play with his legs to extend the drive earlier and then the great individual effort from Mullaney has this game shaping up to be an instant classic just like last year’s game won by Ole Miss.
