If I could believe it of anybody as talented as he is, it would be him, with his old-school parents/upbringing and all. Still, I don't see it. His stock can't possibly get any higher, and we are losing 3/4 of one of the best receiving corps in college football history, so those stats will be a decent bit harder to come by next year.

ETA: However, I would be ecstatic if it were to happen though.

If he stays I wouldn't be surprised. Tua was raised that family and God are most important. Plus, his family knows football and I don't think they'd want him to go to the Dolphins.

I mean, he's going to the worst team pretty much no matter what. Are the Dolphins this year really that much worse than a typical "worst team in the NFL"? (I am genuinely asking because I very rarely watch NFL).

Tua's parents playing 4d chess. Keeping Tua here makes Bryce flip back to USC. Lia gets the start in 2021.

It's life-changing money, and Saban's track record has been to tell Juniors who have a first-round draft grade to go to the draft.

But, and I'm not kidding, Tua's family doesn't seem the type to put a lot of importance on money. They literally moved several time zones. I just don't think they're the type.
There's a realistic chance Tua will stay another year just to stay with Taulia.

FWIW, I'd go out for the draft if I was him. But I'm not.

Tuas family doesn't have the NFL pull like the Mannings have that kept Peyton and Eli away from sure fire shite franchises.
Whether he stays next year or not, and gets drafted high, he'll end up on a shitty team.
Best case scenario is that a decent team gets a shitty franchise's first round pick.

Please God no.


Any self-respecting bama fan wants what's best for the bama players, not what's best for their favorite NFL team.

Or an otherwise good team has a bad year (maybe b/c of injuries) and ends up with a high draft pick.

Lots of wishful thinking.

Guy would have to be an idiot to come back. And we can all agree, he is not an idiot

They moved from Hawaii because Tua is the meal ticket. It will be cashed in ASAP.

Nothing wrong with that but it is what it is.

Tua, Jeudy, Ruggs, Smith and Harris are all leaving together after this year.

Or the Bengals, but his options might not be different next year.
