Has the Fluker route been discussed with Elam? Eventual move to OL?


Fluker was a OL from the minute he stepped on campus. Elam will be a NG from the minute he steps on campus.

What do you expect it to be? His job is to draw a double at the nose. He isnt going to be chasing QBs.

There were plenty of people saying that Fluker would remain on defense and be the perfect NG for the 3-4, too. Just curious though

His Junior film was pretty nasty. He was knocking the frick out of O-Linemen throughout the whole thing.

So what if they were high school O-Linemen from Kentucky? You want to fight about it?

You need to watch his Junior film. You tell me if they were any good.

No, they weren't. That's why they made his highlight tape.

He has seen good competition in KY, though.

Watts predicted Elam to Bama. 65% confidence

Regardless of the choice he's a bit of a project. Saw him play four times over the last two seasons and he's got a lot of work in front of him.

If he realizes how far he has to go in order to play in the best conference Bama would be the choice because they probably wouldn't expect (or need) him to start right away whereas a lot of UK fans might expect too much too soon.

That Michigan player did a helmet at his announcement. Our commitments are pretty confident right now.

Is this guy really a 5 star on 247 and a 3 star on Rivals?
