'19 AL QB Taulia Tagovailoa

In 7 recorded games, Taulia Tagovailoa has the following stats:
64.9 % (192/296), 2,613 yards, 26 TD, 4 INT, 26 carries, 86 yards, 2 TD

In 8 recorded games, Brian Maurer has the following stats:
64.6% (212/328), 2,715 yards, 23 TD, 9 INT, 60 carries, 343 yards, 6 TD

Taulia is great, but our QB is also "putting up video game numbers" this season on a team that has an atrocious defense.

Thanks for those stats? I didn’t argue between those two QBs? Lol.

People were saying Tualia wouldn’t be getting the same attention except for his brother is Tua. I just stated that yes he would no matter who his brother was because of the stats he put up.

At no point did I argue about Brain Maurer or Tualia Tagovailoa.
 
Alabama unfortunately doesn't have to send recruits to other campuses to help recruit for them. This will be his 3rd trip, with 2 being on his own dime. He's doesn't come here to recruit, nor would Pruitt even allow it. He has a great relationship with his family and is well liked by Taulia, Tua and their parents. Again, I'm not saying he ends up here but he may just want to take his own path in college. Not to mention there is no guarantee he could even beat Paul Tyson out for the job. Tyson doesn't put up the passing yards Taulia does because Trussville runs for 220+ a game and don't need him throwing for 370 a game like Taulia has to do. Thompson barely gets 130 rushing yards a game and it's not their strength. Both have started 20 games in HS and Tyson has the higher completion %, the better QBR, YPC, Tyson has an 8/1 TD/Int Ratio and Taulia has a 5/1 ratio and Taulia averages 10+ more pass attempts per game. Compare common opponents this year and Tyson has the much better numbers, better record and much better points per game vs those opponents. I'm like you, way too many are just assuming Taulia would start over Tyson and I see it going the other way. I very easily can see Tyson starting after Tua is gone. One of them won't finish their career at Ala. I guarantee Taulia and his Dad have looked at that scenario. Will be something to watch till the early signing period.

Nice to see someone who can give an update on Alabama HS football without coming off as a giant bag of Summers Eve. God bless you sir.

Oh I wasn't trying to be confrontational, I know you weren't. I just wanted to point out that the guy UT already has is pretty impressive too. I would like to get Taulia in this class along with Maurer, but I think getting just Maurer would be perfectly fine.

To ease some concerns of folks here, taulia is going to only visit for this game as a Bama family member and sit with his family for this game. He will officially visit TN another date later in process.

Smart move imo by his family. Sounds like we are behind LSU right now though in terms of threats to Bama.

Don't know why, but I'm over this...
 
Bet he still gets the red carpet treatment, if he is on campus, whether he OVs or not. Still doubt UT gets him, but seriously doubt Pruitt stops recruiting him especially if he is on campus. I'm happy with Maurer, this staff is relentless, tho. If he is here, no matter in what capacity, Pruitt and Co. will be going all out.
 
Most our fans will leave in the first quarter if we struggle so that should help recruiting.

No one wants to go to a team where the fans stick behind the team no matter what.
 
I am sure bama has bought and paid for both of these kids. There is no way he is coming to Tennessee. Problem with the younger brother is he is won't play unless in a mop up role. The other kid they have recruited is much better.
This besides mop up duty. That QB room is pretty full
