What will Alabama QB Tua Tagovailoa decide to do?

Reinhold Matay - USA Today Sports

All eyes will be inside the Mal Moore Athletic Facility on Monday. 

After a time of contemplation, Tua Tagovailoa will make a huge decision in front of national reporters, local reporters and Nick Saban.

Fans across the landscape of Alabama football will be watching in anticipation too, as Tagovailoa shall either declare for the NFL Draft or return to school for his senior year.

Despite the injuries, he has had a great career for the Crimson Tide.

Since his arrival as a five-star from Hawaii in 2017, he’s been college football’s most gifted passer and one of the more genuine personalities at Alabama.

Tagovailoa rescued the program to a national championship as a freshman and turned in an incredible sophomore campaign that included 48 total touchdowns (five rushing), 3,966 passing yards and being runner-up for the Heisman Memorial Trophy.

A lot was expected last season and while he tried his best, injuries to his ankle and right hip (dislocated) would sideline him after the game versus Mississippi State. 

Not only has he been the ultimate teammate, but he has also changed the culture of how people perceive Alabama football.

Tagovailoa brought a sense of excitement on offense that fans were not accustomed to.

He accumulated 2,840 yards passing with 33 touchdowns to three interceptions in 2019; however, his biggest play will come from the podium to start a new year. 

On Sunday, yours truly of Touchdown Alabama Magazine gave a prediction on what could happen on Monday.

Regardless of his love for Saban and the Tide, I see Tagovailoa declaring for the NFL Draft.

Tide fans, how do you feel about the situation? Should he return or should he go?
