Taulia Tagovailoa, a rising sophomore quarterback who was on Alabama's depth chart behind brother Tua last year, will transfer to Maryland:
Tagovailoa entered the NCAA transfer portal on May 8, per Matt Zenitz of AL.com, and numerous reports provided reasoning as to why.
Aaron Suttles of The Athletic said the following: "Sources indicated he talked openly of transferring on multiple occasions. The writing was on the wall."
Chris Kirschner of The Athletic added these comments: "Going back to my Bama recruiting roots, Taulia told me on multiple occasions how he only wanted to go to Alabama just because it would be easier on his parents to go to games.
