When Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney offered a scholarship to safety Nolan Turner last week, the move meant much more to everyone involved than just football, reports Rachel Baribeau of Gridiron Now.

The offer came completely out of the blue for Turner, an Alabama native and the son of Kevin Turner, a former teammate of Swinney who is battling ALS. Before offering the scholarship to the younger Turner in person, Swinney visited Kevin, who uses a ventilator and feeding tube.

It would have been nice to see another Turner in crimson, but I can't blame him for taking a full ride. Yet another example of just how classy Dabo is.

Yep, Dabo is a stand up dude.  Bama could have offered him a Bryant scholly though.

Could the Bryant scholly still happen?

Sure

Turner didn't play for Bryant.  Did they open that up to children of all former players?

Also, the Bryant Scholarship is a dollar amount that doesn't cover full tuition anymore, I don't believe.  Certainly not room and board like he'd get on a football scholly.
