A former player that’s a good buddy of mine told me Sunday at church that Tua had direct instructions from Saban himself that no matter what to either take a sack and a loss or get rid of the ball before you are hit. One of the MSU players had his hand on his shoulder pads before he ever threw the ball out of bounds.

But that’s the way the kid is built. Trying to make a play no matter the personal cost health wise for him. Praying for a full recovery for the young man.
