since Monday night, its been bothering me how the media has been butchering his name. I realize its a difficult one to say, but if he's going to be your future Heisman winner , please get it right. :biggrin:

The Tunga-vie-low-uh part threw me, until I heard him pronounce it that way. (Just looking at it, I'd've guessed "togga-vie-low-uh")
His name, his pronunciation.

It's easier to just say, "quarterback for the national champions."

If Vern had been around this year....

It's no coincidence that Vern retired due to Tua's commitment.

[BamaMoon]

Every sportscaster in America needs to learn it cause they'll be saying it alot!

 

[Cruiser]

[TideMom2Boys]

I have no problem pronouncing it, now spelling it here on the board....I will stick with just “Tua”

Been known how to pronounce it, but at this point it doesn't matter. Just call him MVP and CHAMPION.

why does that link take me to an article about an Auburn commit?

 

[BigAlinKnoxville]

Thanks for clarifying this. I had been pronouncing it as "Tua Worthington III."

 

[cuda.1973]

Well, at least you didn't pronounce it "Throat-warbler mangrove".

 

[Ole Man Dan]

If Vern had been around this year....

If Coach Bryant were alive he would never be able to remember/pronounce Tua's name.

If Coach Bryant were alive he would never be able to remember/pronounce Tua's name.
