Hell of a post, Slimm. How much of Tua's unwillingness to protect himself can be tied to the college atmosphere? Particularly with Saban, who, great as he is, has a reputation for using his players up (kind of reminds me of Pat Riley's reputation back when he was coaching basketball).
If it weren't for you and Namor saying there's a real chance Tua returns, I wouldn't believe it tbh, but if he does declare, and I'm the team that drafts him, I'd sit him for 2020. Especially for a team like Miami, there's no rush to get him on the field right away, and it'd give me another year to build the OL.
