Re: Statement on Tua Tagovailoa from Alabama team surgeon Dr. Lyle Cain
Yep..................sounds that way.
Folks not familiar with doctor talk have different interpretations of "full recovery" than they do.
The form most familiar to me is "well, you are still alive................what are you complaining about?"
Hey, some of us can make a career out of complaining. If they only knew who they were dealing with............
(Moral of the story: don't go to a research hospital if you can avoid it. They really are there for the research.)

Yeah, I was hoping that the bone chip would move back into place and no surgery would be required. :frown:

FWIW, I have corrective knee surgery scheduled for Dec 4th. I can relate . Full/good recovery isn’t always full/good!
Maybe it’s for the labral tear to stabilize the femur head? Hopefully its not more serious. It’s really all speculation at this point.

Not to speculate, but we don't know the severity and they are NOT going to broadcast it. Or it could be that the doctors at Andrews and/or Tua's family felt someone else was better for doing the exact surgery that needs done.
The question there is: Is there a labral tear? An unstable fracture? Vascular issues?

Re: Statement on Tua Tagovailoa from Alabama team surgeon Dr. Lyle Cain
A lot of it, we'll never know (and don't need to). However, it's safe to assume that it's not the simplest case or surgery wouldn't be indicated at all. That's pretty clear. I hate that surgery is indicated, but, since it is, I want him to have the best in the country. Since I'm going to have to have my right THR revised, I'll be looking with great curiosity at who does it...

It is certainly not the best possible news, but as long as he makes it back onto the football field to continue his dream, I wouldn't call it "bad" news just yet. I just feel terrible for him that he has to go through this. Some players just can't seem to catch a break.
What many people are failing to understand, is that football is not the god which Tua serves...
“23 Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, 24 since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving.
—Col 3:23-24
Tua serves the Lord, and everything else is secondary. Whether you’re a believer or not, is unimportant.....Tua is, and his faith makes all the difference in this situation.
