re: Tua would've transferred if kept on sidelines for last game

Checking in, looks like I missed some things. Went on vacation.

So in regards to what I saw early with Tua it’s really simple. Tua was talented we all know this but he was turnover prone. Like every practice.

Examples, Tua throws a forced pick and Sabans body language completely shifts and basically tells the OC to “ get him the hell out of there”.

It’s sometimes hard to convey things without a video but, essentially almost everything I attended Tua was making a forced play when in reality he didn’t have too. I think that was what rubbed Saban the most, he wanted him to learn patience and not try to make a play when it wasn’t there.

You saw a slight glimpse of that in the natty then he got his patience in order and made plenty of strikes.

The practices leading up to Clemson when I said Tua had a package, he was WAY more patient in the pocket and threw the ball away when necessary. That IMO is what made Saban trust him finally.

Glad everyone kept it civil. Cheers.
