🏈 Kiffin says Tua was going to transfer

[Tidestalker]

Had he not played in this game. Don't have a link, but on JOX they're paraphrasing that Tua felt he out played Jalen all year in practice and never got his shot.

How bad would that have sucked? Goodness gracious. Saban may have not only won this title, but a few more with that halftime decision.

(PS - Seeing Tua at UCLA throwing it all over creation would have been sickening)

It's tough to sit on the bench when you know you are better than the starter. He is a special player with high football IQ and ability.

 

[TUSKtimes]

Goes in the face of Tua saying he is fine with Jalen starting his freshman year. Now, he just said that a few weeks ago so perhaps Kiffin is full of it. Naw, Kiffin full of it, too hard to imagine.

What's Tua supposed to say?

Sorry but I believe it. I was actually filling out the papers for Tua to transfer after watching Jalen that first half

Don't worry though, I used the shredder in the 3rd!!

Kiffin should find something more productive to do with his mouth.

What was Lane Kiffin suppose to say? Something controversial, immature, it is all that he does. Funny you have this much trouble believing Tua.

No. What was Tua supposed to say?

"Yes, I love being the backup!!!". LOL

So he's a liar. I know Kiffin is, what you got on Tua?

Would you consider Nick Saban a liar? "I'm not going to be the Alabama football Coach"

Sometimes you have to say what's best in the moment. I'd put Tua in the Saban category as a great competitor that would have done what's best for himself with the options at hand.

Someone has to be the back up. Did you all see how Jalen acted when Tua was in?

 

[JoseyWalesTheOutlaw]

The backup QB is always the best player on the team...just ask the fans

Perhaps in all that praise he's quick to verbally give Jesus he could also subscribe to the hard part, doing it.

At UCLA, or USC, Oregon... ETC. Nightmares

He is a classy guy.

 

[bama alum]

This is why the ten-year contract he signed is not worth the paper it's printed on. I think it's too hard for him to be a media whore down at a small school where he is.

I'm not sure how LK would even know what Tua was thinking or feeling. He's not on campus anymore and I doubt he has anything more than speculation from his point of view from South Florida.

Tua came to Bama knowing that Jalen was a Freshman starter that took that team to a NC final and almost won. I don't think it came as any surprise that he was not inserted as a starter in the season. I find that story from LK to be very hard to believe...

 

[OldPlayer]

Kiffin doesn't know what he's talking about. He's had no conversations with Tua since he left.

Clutter.

When the hell did TO become a Bama fan?

 

['65 Cobra]

Doesn't Tua's whole family live in Alabaster or Pelham?
