Alabama's team orthopedic surgeon, Dr. Lyle Cain, announced Saturday night that Tagovailoa's right hip dislocation was "immediately reduced at the stadium." The Athletic's Aaron Suttles reported that Tagovailoa also suffered a posterior wall fracture. On Sunday, Cain announced that Tagovailoa was set to undergo surgery Monday in Houston. That surgery has now been completed, and Tagovailoa will be returning to Tuscaloosa, Alabama, in the coming days to begin his rehabilitation.
"The procedure went as planned, and he is resting comfortably," Cain said in a statement. "Tua's prognosis is excellent, and we expect him to make a full recovery."
Perhaps Cain is being optimistic. Hips are indeed tricky and there are a lot of variables going forward.

I remember when CJ Mosley dislocated his hip in the 2012 NC game. It was horrible. They kept showing it on the Jumbrotron. I thought he would never walk again. But for every CJ making millions in the NFl, there is a guy who walks with a cane for the rest of life. I hope Tua has a similar trajectory as CJ.

A follow-up question I would have for my colleague Dr. Cain would be "What is your definition of a full recovery?"
Full recovery as in, .. after healing and rehab he's still a top draft pick in the NFL? He picks up right where he left off?
or
Full recovery as in, he should have no trouble walking normally again?
I'll have to send him the questions on my super-secret doctor communications channel where we all talk so the rest of you yahoos can't know what we're talking about ...
Wow, Liney, I cannot stand your glee over this situation. No offense, but you truly are a piece of shit and I would appreciate it greatly if you spread your moronic fecal spew on some other thread on this fine forum. I won't run off and leave the forum if you refuse because I am not a pussy cunt, but I would appreciate it because I feel my decorum and civility slipping at present.

Yes, you may post where you like - and I don't need your permission to 'slip'. It was only a simple request. Just trying to keep things nice and friendly.

But, as all Scots, I am peaceful and slow to anger. And, yes, 'purveyor of detente' would be an apt descriptor.

Mission to CFB's National Championship accomplished. But the shine on the NC Trophy is embarrassingly wearing off. It's M B-Ball ..... or hockey or volley ball or name your college sport favorite time ...... until next year.
