Taulia Tagovailoa has been committed to the Crimson Tide for nearly six months. That hasn’t stopped others from pursuing the 4-star signal caller from Alabaster (Ala.) Thompson — even considering how tall of a task it may be to flip the younger brother of UA quarterback Tua Tagovailoa.

On Wednesday, Taulia was presented with his 2019 All-American Bowl jersey at his high school and talked a little recruiting with 247Sports’ John Garcia Jr.

Something Tagovailoa has maintained since the summer is that aside from Alabama, both LSU and Tennessee will receive official visits. And, according to the All-American, the Tide is ok with that.

“That’s the thing that I like about Alabama,” Tagovailoa told 247Sports. “They know that I’m committed there. They’d support me if I were to go somewhere else. It’s like family over there.”

Tagovailoa says it’s Alabama atop of his list of course followed by LSU at No. 2 and Tennessee at No. 3.

“I really like LSU, their offense,” he said. “Tennessee, in the beginning I was like man … but I know (Jeremy) Pruitt always gets them boys right. Now they just beat Auburn. LSU, they’re on fire. I know Coach O is doing a good job.”

As for official visits, Tagovailoa says he will “for sure” take them to Baton Rouge and Knoxville. Those dates, however, have not been set. The Tide travels to Tennessee this weekend. The 4-star signal caller plans to be there, but as of now it does not sound like it will be for his official visit, rather he will attend his family in the stands.

Tagovailoa expanded upon what could change his mind from Alabama, something that might catch many by surprise to see.

“Honestly, my decision is going to be based off of family and if my family likes it or not,” he said. “My family really likes LSU a lot. They play Alabama every year. Tennessee, too.”

The 5-foot-11, 203-pounder has of course seen very much firsthand the Tide’s success on the field thus far in 2018.

“Alabama’s offense is crazy,” Tagovailoa said. “They throw it when they gotta throw it and run when they gotta run.”

The Tagovailoa’s rely upon their faith in all aspects of life. That will help guide Taulia to his final decision.

“It’s something we have to pray about for sure,” he said.

Tagovailoa is rated the No. 6 pro-style quarterback and the No. 173 overall player in the country, per the industry-generated 247Sports Composite Rankings.

This season, Tagovailoa has passed for 2,613 yards and 26 touchdowns to just four interceptions, good for a quarterback rating of 116.6 on the year.
