    The name Paul Tyson might not sound familiar to Alabama fans, but his great grandfather's name will.

    Tyson is the great grandson of legendary coach Bear Bryant and just received a scholarship offer from the Crimson Tide.

    Tyson is the No. 205-ranked prospect in ESPN Junior 300 and now holds offers from two schools where his great grandfather coached -- Alabama and Kentucky.

    "I was actually down at Alabama, watching their bowl practice, and Coach [Nick] Saban walked over and said I've earned it, I've had a really good year and he was deciding to offer me," Tyson said. "It definitely meant a lot to me. It was a big honor that it was coming from him personally."
