“Oh my God....it’s killing me!!”

“Where does it hurt?”

“In my hip area...oh God it feels like my hip is broken....ahhhh....give me a shot of something....ohhh God help me!!”

“Did you say it’s the knee? Let’s help him up and off the field.”


You really think that when he was laying on the ground in agony that they couldn’t determine that it was the hip and not the knee? Geesh

Did they do the reduction in the locker room?

Blame Mississippi State for not having a medical cart to accommodate with this certain injury.

You may be right.

Then again, if he had a neck/back injury, I'd guess they'd put him on an ambulance gurney, lift it, and then wheel him off.

Not a big deal to me. I just thought it ended up being a really bad look for the situation, and will be shown every time his name is mentioned, for a long time.

I truly hope he recovers 100% and has great success on Sundays.

I know the head trainer for Bama he and the staff did nothing wrong. They were waiting for the State’s medical team to provide transportation (cart) for Tua to get off the field. Couldn’t use the ambulance when they were trying to get off the field to pop it in place in the locker room. Also getting in the visiting locker room at State is a nightmare with the ramps.

Bleeding from the nose is no big deal.

trying to bear weight is what you should try

I'm impressed that they had the medications to sedate him and reduce it in the locker room

Damn Saban, is this the way you cover details?


As stated, the game was at Miss St. An LSU player would have been taken off the field the exact same way as Tua was. Would you be criticizing Orgeron if the same situation had occurred with Burrow? Of course not.

Why LSU fans loath Saban is odd to me. He's the best college football coach of his generation and he'll be remembered as one the greatest college coaches of all time. He also was directly responsible for creating the foundation for the success that LSU now enjoys. And he didn't leave LSU for Bama. He left to take the next professional step that we all knew he'd take at some point in his career - the NFL. I prefer to just say "thank you" to him and then continue to pull for Orgeron to compete with him on a yearly basis.

What was the story of Saban, when he was with the Dolphins, stepped over and injured player like he was a piece of crap in the street ? Saban is a good coach that gets great recruits but as a sympathetic human being, especially toward his players, he's an a-hole.
