Arguably the biggest legacy commitment in Alabama football history has landed in Tuscaloosa. Paul Tyson, the great-grandson of Bear Bryant, is already practicing with the Crimson Tide.
As was reported this week, Tyson has already graduated from high school and is an early enrollee, taking classes in the spring semester starting in January. That allows him to take part in UA’s bowl practices. A 4-star recruit, Tyson is listed at 6-4, 217 pounds.
Reporters on hand at Alabama’s Saturday practice took some videos of Tyson participating in various drills, which you can watch below:
