Alabama fans are excited about the 20 early signees for the 2020 recruiting class and it should be, seeing how the group fulfills every need the Crimson Tide had and then some.
In fact, the class looks so good that it’s intensified the decision of one Tua Tagovailoa.
The junior quarterback for Alabama dropped a tweet on Wednesday and it captured everything he has been feeling since the regular season ended. He is four months away from becoming a multi-millionaire; however, Tagovailoa sees what the Tide has signed and could be having thoughts of returning to school.
The native Hawaiian mentioned at his press conference — a few weeks after the Iron Bowl – on how NFL teams do not even know if he can play on his right hip.
Decisions, decisions ?

Should he still be considered a top-10 to top-15 pick, it would be ideal for him to declare for the NFL Draft.
If he is not, then it opens the door for a return to the Tide and if his rehab went well, it presents a chance to win a national championship.
Tagovailoa knows he will be a special professional talent, but he also really values Saban, the fans and the University of Alabama.

Fans have come out on social media in support of Tagovailoa. They are fine with whatever decision he chooses.
As for right now, the 2018 Heisman runner-up is torn between Alabama and the NFL.
