Alabama Football: Spring practice starts with injury woes

Alabama football fans will want to know all there is to know (and more) about the quarterbacks. The news was not good on Tuesday. Tua Tagovailoa hurt the thumb on his throwing hand and will be out for at least a “few days” according to Nick Saban.

That was not all the bad QB news. It was learned ECU transfer Gardner Minshew decided to not join the Crimson Tide. The ‘Air Raid’ siren song of Mike Leach, with Hal Mumme singing backup, has lured Minshew to Washington State. It is odd that Minshew’s reason for leaving ECU was to be closer to his Mississippi home for ‘family’ reasons.
