tua.

Umm, thanks?

Since lots of input, here ya go:

He had it scoped, and will be ready to play in 1-3 weeks.

There.

Agreed. Even if Tennessee were to somehow beat us with Jalen at QB it wouldn't matter when it comes to the ultimate goal. Just have to win out.

As much as I'd like to hang 100 on them this game vs them literally doesn't matter. Kinda like the iron bowl last year except this game matters even less.

Yep, agree. Time to think strategically, IMO. Nobody hates UT more than me, but we have bigger fish to fry.

What time is Saban press conference?

My thoughts are if we can't beat UT with or without Tua, we probably won't be in the playoff. They are just plain bad.

Bama will beat UT by 20+ even if Tua never leaves the bench.

da nada

That is what I think too. They may be a lot better but my gosh, they were so bad to start with they couldn't help but to get better.

Yeah that’s one thing I’ve heard from some folks ,but won’t know for sure until CNS press conference.

FWIW the Vegas oddsmakers are now showing Tua as "Probable" for the UT game although there is still no line.

Looks like it is Jalen's time.

If this entire situation doesn't impress you the heck out of you, with regard to how Saban and Alabama manages student athletes and their health, nothing will. I mean, in September, we were talking about the schools with QB controversies, and how transfer rules would mean that athletes would be jumping ship and going to other schools at the first sign they wouldn't get playing time. Not only did Saban work in Jalen as much as Tua, though he didn't start, he got great reps, stayed relevant, and actually put up some decent numbers this year. And not only did Jalen stay, which says a HECK OF A LOT about his personal character, but he is now our starting QB.

Look at how good of a situation this Alabama program truly is in. As far as other programs go, particularly Ohio State and Clemson, this program sails well above the sea, while others have had to bail water from time to time.

“Touch dat thang Four”

“Shake back One Three”

I think the “1-3” in the tweet is most likely indicative of how the players refer to one another — by their numbers.

I think the tweet is intended to be encouraging toward number 13 (That’d be Tua), rallying him to shake back — which apparently means to overcome adversity.

So, Tua is referring to himself in the third person, encouraging himself?

Lot of truth in this. Go you one better. If we can`t beat UT with or without Tua, we probably don`t deserve to be in the playoff.

trying to apply old person logic to young person slang is an effort in futility

I didn't see the quote on Twitter - only the links here. My understanding was that it was "@Tuamann" from Jerry Jeudy. If the tweet was from Tua then I would completely change my interpretation of its meaning.
