If this is a Bo Jackson injury, then he'll be back next season. He might not be playing, unless they have made advancements with those injuries, but he'll be back


Bo was just incredibly unluckly. His surgery went absolutely fine and his hip was supposed to be fine. But there were post-surgical complications regarding regeneration and redistribution of the blood supply, and the head of the femur died.

Saban didn’t do himself any favors with what he said in the interview. Not that he meant it the way it sounded, but it sounded bad.

Yea, I can't remember exactly what he said, and I don't think he meant it bad, but it got my attention.

He was legit flustered. Never heard him sound like that.

This. He didn’t think Tua would get hurt. He wanted to work on the 2:00 minute offense. Tua goes down and scores, we don’t bat an eye. Tua scrambles and gets hurt, and we blame everyone. It’s a violent sport and injuries happen.

Phrases like “I don’t worry about players getting injured” and “it’s too bad.”

Saban has to understand that tua doesn’t protect himself that well even when he’s healthy. He should’ve known not to play him for his own good

Exactly. Crazy. If the original person he was throwing to was open and he doesn’t scramble, no injury. And people are no saying a fricking word.

I may be done with this site after this.

This is 100% on Saban. No one thought that Tua should be in there

Agree and this was my initial thought

Tua has to throw the ball away tho. If two surgically repaired ankles during your career doesn’t teach you then I do not know what, if anything, will.

I’m more pissed at Tua than Saban but Saban is the fricking coach and needs to tell his QB to sit his arse down and get ready for Auburn.

The last time Saban sounded like that was when he was bragging about Jalen after the Georgia game

If you play you play. Tua got hurt and it's unfortunate but injuries happen. I'm not about to question Saban's decisionmaking now when I have enjoyed much of his decisionmaking.


All of this. Totally agree.

Has Tua hurt his draft stock? Injured a knee, thumb and ankle last year. Had surgery. Injured a knee and a hip this year with at least one surgery. It is possible he has hip surgery. Don't @ me as I am concerned for his health. Just making a football observation and asking the ?

Man... some of y’all are some pearl clutching blue-haired old ladies.

Tua was in because he was healthy and wanted to run the two minute in live action.

Saban was right to play him.

Don’t forget we’ve also lost TWO interior defensive linemen: Dale and Davis.
