I don't know how Lil Tua is feeling, I imagine how your source says. I will say that I know Mama Tua, at least, has loved it and especially loves how Tua has been welcomed.
I can't imagine any kid not hating being away from home though. I couldn't do it for any opportunity simply because I wouldn't want to have to uproot my kids.

To be honest, I'll be surprised if we don't start running into trouble recruiting the elite wide receivers going forward. They're not gonna be anxious to go somewhere that doesn't have a QB that can throw the ball at least on an average level.
I've heard people say this since Julio was playing. Guess what? Hasn't happened yet.

a lot of things that will happen haven't happened yet. I doubt Saban takes that approach to things.Posted on 10/29/17 at 7:54 am to Funky Tide 8
But Alabama has had a more balanced offense, with a more prolific and effective downfield passing game most of those years, compared to the last 2 years. We have been good at the jet sweeps and quick outs, but not in the intermediate and long game. Of course, this is no news flash. We've discussed this for a year now.

So it looks like we are gonna have to beat everyone without a passing game hoping they can't stop the run. Better to take our chances being one dimensional than to try our luck with a passing game and a running game. Saban is gonna have a tough decision to make this year and I hope it doesn't happen this Saturday against a team that lost to troy. We have run over some really bad defenses so far and the 2 teams with average defenses really limited our offense.

We get one get out of jail free card if Georgia wins the Auburn game.
We can drop a game and are still guaranteed a spot in the playoff by virtue of a win over #1 Georgia in the SEC championship.
And this is critically important this year. Because of the unanswered questions concerning our offensive balance. A loss prior to the SEC. Championship will likely be the result of a sort of offensive breakdown due to a lack of passing. That loss will provide Saban the logical justification for going to a two QB system just in time to avoid disaster.
So we have every reason to pull for Georgia from here on out.
I am not predicting a loss. Simply stating that we all know why we might lose and it's better to have it happen before the SEC championship so that we can all get real and wake up and smell the coffee before our season is on the line.

There are a few teams that will play us tough left not to mention whoever makes it into the playoff. I’d say OSU and ND would be interesting.
I’m waiting to see what happens when we truly face adversity. Our team hasn’t met it this year and that’s a semi worry.

I'm not sure why you follow me around the board and try to post some issue with anything I say. But, if you didn't speak to little Tua then you don't have a dog in this fight. We have established its reasonable for a kid of his age to have reservations about a move this large. Him voicing that is not out of the question.

The Ala players were talking about Baby Tua this week and said they watched the game. He spends most of his weekends in Tuscaloosa.
Shaun Dion Hamilton said before the Hoover game, he grabbed Baby Tua and told him all about Hoover and how to beat them. He said that was really big to beat Hoover as a junior and he was proud of him. The article said the crystal balls are 100% to Alabama right now.
