Re: Coach Bryant's Great Grandson is a Potential Recruit at QB
I wouldn't want to give him a football scholarship just because he is Coach Bryant's great-grandson. If the trustees of the Bryant fund want to give him one, that's fine with me. But a football scholarship is a precious commodity and I don't think it should be handed out because you have Bryant's DNA in your system.
If he wants to come here and can help the team, that's great. But we have no idea what our QB situation will be then so speculating about a 2019 signee is just fantasy at this point.
I don't think the pressure will be all that bad if he does come here. Yes, he will attract a lot of media attention, but the fact he'd be sitting on the bench for a couple years will help the hoopla die down. Hurts will be a senior his freshman year and Tua a junior or redshirt sophomore. His name not being Bryant will probably help some as well. Also, we are talking about a man he never met who died long before he was even born. Of course, I'm not him but he has known who his famous relative is all life so he is probably used to it.
