I wouldn’t rule out Paul Tyson beating him out. From watching them up close last year I would think Tyson is a lot more further on than Taulia. Just imoHopefully we’re looking at the next Payton/Eli brother combo!
Agreed. I thought Lia was a little shorter but they look virtually the same height in that video.If you stood them next to each other and took their numbers off the jersey, you almost couldn't tell them a part. You can tell they are brothers. Built a lot alike.
Exactly the opposite of what I've heard said about them. Since Tyson played the a Gus protege my understanding is he is not as develped as a downfield passer as Lia.I wouldn’t rule out Paul Tyson beating him out.

That’s a lot because Lia is hyped up because of his High school coach and his brother. He is good but how good remains the questionExactly the opposite of what I've heard said about them. Since Tyson played the a Gus protege my understanding is he is not as develped as a downfield passer as Lia.
I don't think it's a foregone conclusion either. Tyson has TONS of upside.That’s a lot because Lia is hyped up because of his High school coach and his brother. He is good but how good remains the question
Hearing and seeing are two different things. I’ve seen Lia about 3 more times than I’ve seen Tyson (7-4) and I’ve never been wowed by Lia to the level that many Alabama fans have been. He is good but not the second coming of Tua. I’ve came away more impressed with Tyson than Lia. IMO .
FWIW i don’t care who wins that future battle. I’m just saying it’s not a forgone conclusion like I hear many say.
Better than Tua? I haven't heard that and, frankly, based on what I saw in the HS game I watched of his last fall I don't buy it. Not as accurate as Tua, IIRC, and forced a few throws as well. I have no doubt Tua will help him and he'll improve.Didn’t mean to knock our little legacy at QB. Heard Paul Tyson is good, but I’ve been hearing Taulia is better than his big brother for a while now..
I asked someone close to Tua at a game the same question he said “who ever has been saying Lia is better than or equal to Tua is either blind or doesn’t know what they are talking about. Lia is good maybe great but Tua is a generational talent” his words not mine.Didn’t mean to knock our little legacy at QB.

Appears to be. Have seen and heard numerous people call him that.Is “Lia” really his nickname? Please let this not be a thing..
I first heard it from his HS coach and team mates in an article with quotes from those folks last year. They all called him "Lia".Appears to be. Have seen and heard numerous people call him that.
Part of that is because Tyson was in the wrong system. He was running the equivalent of what Gus runs. Just wasn't going to work.Lia is a much better passer than Tyson at this point as I think Tyson has a high upside as well. Both are good but Taulia is the better QB at least coming out of h.s. Not sure I would believe anyone that says he is/was better than Tua coming out of h.s., Taulia is good but not that good.
Yep. I am in the Bham market and heard many of his teammates and coach call him Lia in print and on TV. Nothing different than calling an Elizabeth a Beth.I first heard it from his HS coach and team mates in an article with quotes from those folks last year. They all called him "Lia".
