I hope you’re right, but Bama was kicking our ass with Greg McElroy. I do think the pendulum is starting to swing just a bit in the right direction. I really wish Moseley would join him.

How do you guys think this affects the Third Saturday in October this year?

 

[Volunteer_Kirby]

Good for him. Saban may have already destroyed his career, time will tell.

 

[tnvols72]

Dont blame him. take the money and go before Saban has him on disability

 

[GoVols64]

Tagovailoa leaving Alabama to enter NFL draft

 

[GoVols64]

Saban destroyed his career? I don't understand that at all. Football injuries happen and that was a freak accident. Everyone knows the risks when they sign up.

Alabama is beatable without Tua..but Tennessee needs to figure out how not to be a bad offense before thinking his departure favors us.

 

[Nocleats]

Kids a helluva QB. I'll give credit where its due.. The QB commit I saw play in the HS Allstar game Saturday that is going to bama is scary good.

 

[VolDaddy61]

Good on him. Absolutely nothing to be gained playing for them next season.

Mac Jones only started in 5 4 games including the bowl game, still threw for 15 TDs , Bryce Young is the number 1 DT QB in the 2020 class and on campus as an EE, and in 3rd place they have Taulia Tagovailoa.

Might want to wait for the chickens to hatch first.

This, basically. He had a top 15 draft grade despite the injury. If you get that grade you have to go.

 

[BearCat204]

More concerned with our QB situation. Will ultimately have exponentially more to do with our chances against bammer than Tua being there or not

 

[BeardedVol]

This, basically. He had a top 15 draft grade despite the injury. If you get that grade you have to go.

Had he come back, doubt he would have been able to get an injury insurance policy given his current draft grade, and his previous injuries.

Mac only started 4 games.

I believe he was referring to Tua still playing in a meaningless game against Miss State with 2 mins left before half time up by 35 points...oh yeah, and still recovering from surgery that repaired his ankle.

 

[BeardedVol]

Mac only started 4 games.

Forgot about Tua coming back for LSU.

Who else from Bama is entering the draft (non seniors)?

 

[Dudleys87]

Read a few comments and they’ve already turned on him. I seriously hope they get a few years of humble pie.

 

[Bigun]

The bigger loss for Bama will be if all 3 WR's go pro. I believe Jeudy and Ruggs have already declared. If Devonta Smith declares then they lose their top 3 WR's, top RB and QB. Hopefully Dylan Moses changes his mind and goes pro.

 

[bamawriter]

Who else from Bama is entering the draft (non seniors)?

Jeudy, McKinney, Wills (thank God), and probably Ruggs. Moses and Leatherwood are returning, and McMillon has been granted a 6th year, though he hasn't officially announced that he's returning.

ETA: DeVonta Smith is coming back.

 

[BigOrangeAl 1979]

Who else from Bama is entering the draft (non seniors)?

Jeudy Ruggs, Smith they losing their entire receiving corps plus Tua plus Najee Harris. It’s time to end the streak next October in Knoxville
