Tua comes across as Tebow clean, super QB potential in the league. He could be an endorsement machine along the lines of a Tiger Woods.

Tebow clean with Tua talent = winning the endorsement game. Geez! Think about how many endorsements Manziel had before he dropped Johnny Football for Johnny Drama!

I have no qualms with Tebow and his "journey"... I understood it. While I think Tua may be on the same "journey", it feels like he's so much less controversial. More Like-able. Maybe it's the Hawaiin vibe, but you just don't feel the hate for that kid the way some hated Tebow. Even the Alabama haters don't seem to have a visceral reaction to him... In that way, his character and personality is pretty darn transcendent. 1 of a kind!

Is Tua Tagovailoa ready to become Miami's biggest star since Dan Marino?
Former Miami athletes Dwyane Wade, Ricky Williams and Joe Rose weigh in on the rookie quarterback's arrival that is being defined by hope and hype.

Maryland has had a few opt out this season, including their senior QB and 2 OL.
Good opportunity for Tualia.

I haven't looked or seen the numbers, but I'd imagine pretty much anyone and everyone will get the stamp of approval during this Covid stuff.
I'm gonna say, the fact that he had an attorney handling it. Now that his brother has lemedy million dollars, paying for a really good attorney is a non-issue.

Explain to me how Covid has anything to do with a transfer. They don't have Covid in Maryland?
Yes, obviously. I'm talking about the impact its having on CFB. With the chaos going on (99% of which is caused by people, not the virus IMO), I don't see the NCAA putting up much of a fight against transfers this year. For example, you've got players opting out, others will no doubt have to sit out when they test positive... some rosters will have holes. I still don't believe that a full season will be completed, or maybe even started, so it may not matter anyway... but that was my point.

Strictly my opinion here...
I feel like it's been the 'plan' from the PAC and B1G to cancel the fall season all along. They haven't because of what you've just mentioned: they would see a mass exodus of players headed to conferences that are playing. The longer they delay, the less likely they see kids jumping ship.
IOW, lawyer-up and you're a free agent.
Wouldn't doubt it a bit.
