I really liked it over there because of coach (Jeremy) Pruitt and what they're doing. But, at the end of the day, it was, 'What is going to be better for me and my family?,' and Alabama was that." Wow. These kids are young and have NO idea. :facepalm: Title: Re: "'A really big weight off my shoulders': Taulia Tagovailoa talks Alabama commitment" Post by: Merk on April 23, 2018, 06:06:04 PM The dynamic duo!

Quote Taulia isn’t quite the hyped recruit Tua was in the class of 2017. Tua was a five-star prospect and the consensus No. 1 dual-threat quarterback in his year. Taulia is a four-star, ranked as the No. 6 pro-style QB in the class, according to the 247Sports Composite. https://www.sbnation.com/college-football-recruiting/2018/4/21/17266148/taulia-tagovailoa-alabama-qb-commitTaulia is Alabama’s second quarterback commit in the 2019 class. The other is four-star Paul Tyson, a great-grandson of Bear Bryant. The Tide are keeping this position in the family. The main difference between Tua and Taulia is their style of play. As the recruiting services indicated by how they classified them, Tua’s a bit more of a runner than Taulia. The younger brother is closer to a drop-back, traditionally pro-style QB, though pretty much every QB recruit now has to be able to use his legs a bit. “I guess we both spin it,” Taulia told SB Nation at a recruiting camp in Charlotte in the spring of 2017. “He has his style, and I have my style.” What’s Taulia’s style? “Pocket passer with the ability to extend plays.” "According to 247.com, he had 13 offers, including Tennessee, Florida and Nebraska.

Wasn’t sure he’d want to come in and compete with his brother. Glad he made the right decision.

DOING WHAT?? All they've done is blow a hc search, call in a former, fat coach to help, start a student uprising over rumors, and settle for a DC who's never had HC experience. I know these are high-school kids, but was surprised that top recruits could be swayed easily by bright lights and fancy talk. :dunno: Title: Re: "'A really big weight off my shoulders': Taulia Tagovailoa talks Alabama commitment" Post by: Catch Prothro on April 24, 2018, 06:28:47 AM I wasn’t sure we’d get him.
