Although, and this has nothing to do with your post, if that video got out, I think CNS may have wanted someone (plural) to see it. Look...Tua's not hurt, he's out throwing in the rain...
Then he/she is taken off that contract. They take the filming of that practice field while players are on it pretty dang serious.

Why on earth would he be upset to see Tua doing what all coaches want their leaders to do, lead by example. Do you reallt think someone on the staff did not know this was going on?
This was filmed from one of the apartments that overlook the practice facility - it's in the lease that the residents cannot film practice from their balconies. That's what people are discussing - if it's a resident who filmed this, there's a good chance they will be evicted.

I would take the video a lot more serious, if the team were on it running plays. Not sure about one player out in the rain. Besides, it would be difficult to prove who took it. It may have been a friend of a tenant, or something. I wonder how long Tua was out there by himself.

I also have to wonder if this was actually considered a practice since only one person was out there. Some of you may know whether or not if everything that takes place on that field is off limits to be filmed.

I can't see the video, so I have to ask: what's he doing and what can he accomplish by himself?

He is throwing 50 yard lasers and running down field and catching them. Dude has mad skills and speed to burn. I think ht is part cheetah.

Gotta feel for the person who paid a lot of money to buy a gameday weekend condo right next to the practice field, close to the quad, and a short walk to the stadium. Their dumb kid probably gonna force them to sell it for taping that!

LOL - In all seriousness, it is a very short clip ( a few seconds). All we see is Tua taking a simulated snap and then dropping backs a few steps. He then stops and appears to be about to do it again when the clip ends. So, IMO, he is out there trying out the knee. He was not going fast in he short clip - just going through the motions.

I doubt he'd be "trying out the knee" to just simulate taking snaps and the RPO.

If he's trying out the knee it would be more about dropping back and throwing some ball at a target.

Granted, with only a few seconds of video, he might have worked up to that, but that video really tell us nothing except, it looked like he was out there all by himself in the cold rain. For all we know, he could have just been praying or finding some alone time to "think."

I did say that it was my opinion. I was not pretending to know what he is doing.

Probably someone's kid who invited over their idiot boyfriend....:)
