Elam, a 6-foot-6, 350-pound nose guard from Elizabethtown, Kentucky, was previously considering Notre Dame as well but has apparently dropped the Fighting Irish from consideration. Elam is rated by 247Sports as the nation's No. 2 defensive tackle prospect and is considered by many to be the country's top true 3-4 nose guard prospect...

He looks the part, 6'6"  350 lbs, and that haircut!  It sounds like he may want to stay close to home though.

I know that's close to home for him, but I just have a hard time believing that a player of his caliber would pick Kentucky over Bama, unless he's going to play basketball, too.

The last great player I remember Bama getting from Kentucky is Shaun Alexander.  This guy appears to have that level of potential, so I agree, it's hard to believe he would pick Kentucky.  The showboating, two hats on the table thing, though, sounds like a publicity stunt a Stoops might dream up.
