The top-ranked dual-threat quarterback in the 2017 class, Tua Tagovailoa, has been committed to Alabama since May and a late offer from Ed Orgeron and LSU won't sway the five-star who is standing by his initial pledge, his father, Galu Tagovailoa, said Thursday morning.
Tua will be an early enrollee and is set to graduate in December, therefore, he doesn't have the time to develop a relationship with Orgeron and he strongly remains a Crimson Tide commitment, according to his father.
