Dislocated hip / Fractured posterior wall

[mdpcane]

Fluke injury, but today everybody needs someone blame.

He’s a junior, correct? Did not redshirt either. With today’s medical advances he may be able to have surgery and rehabilitate, and use 2020 as a redshirt season. Come back in 2021.

Tua will need a lot of prayer and things going his way post-surgery ..... a lot of IFS in there.

This is not career ending at all. Medical science has advanced quite a bit since Bo, and he should be able to make a full recovery, considering his age and quality of healthcare that he’ll receive.

I’m surprised no one has mentioned Danyell Ferguson. He had a bright future and was being compared to Thurman Thomas. Then his hip was dislocated on a hit in Morgantown and that was the end of his career.

I’m sure medical advances have been made, but I’m not gonna automatically assume Tua will play again at this point.

If it is the Bo Jackson injury, I hope Tua has a good major and grades. His football star future would be over. He would simply get a where are they now YouTube piece.

 

[cooks002]

2021 is likely the next time he'd see the field

Bro that would be nuts if he stayed and was the QB when we play them.

And a great disability policy.

If Tuas career is over will bama help support his 80 family members that moved to Tuscaloosa?

[RightSaidFred]

Well at least he got his University of Alabama education to fall back on

LMAO

Poor kid probably can’t read. They don’t go to class there.

Well, Tua still has a younger brother on the team for Saban to run into the ground next.

 

[RightSaidFred]

No I played D-2 baseball..have the pleasure of playing through a partially torn labrum..but I’ll tell you this, when I later sprained my ankle sliding into home plate that same season..I didn’t blame my coaches..

How did you tear your labia?

maybe he can enroll in their law school since theyre top 35 or something in the country lol

 

[streetja]

May be a lot of value in betting Bama the rest of the way. Don't think Tua is really worth all that much...

 

[Gatorhater]

Not a Cane so I don’t care one way or another. Don’t think fins should take.

 

[Heart of The Playmaker]

I am pretty sure he has a Lloyds of London policy that will pay him tax free in the 10-12 mill range....you can live pretty **** well with that...

Then get into coaching....

 

[GojiraCane]

Even in Alabama?

They might use leeches

Nope, he’s of no more use to UA.

 

[UMFarArcher]

If his last name was Cassidy - he could easily pick up the nickname - "Hopalong."

As good an athlete as he is - he can probably clean up in weekend one-legged-***-kicking contest. Pick up $200 - $400 in just a couple hours.

 

[Garnacho]

So two examples of this injury have been talked about - both career ending. Any examples of elite athletes coming back from this?

Does Saban sit with Tua and explain his benefits with AFLAC?
