From everything I have heard...the visit couldn't have gone better. He brought his mom, coach, and sister. It was his family's first visit in Tuscaloosa, so it was their first time getting to see how everything is down there. The coaching staff told Elam that they dont expect him to just play NG, they believe he has the versatility to play the two and three gap as well. His coach also says that Elam knows he needs to shed some weight and he believes that Coach Cochran can get him in the right shape. Elam said that he is very close with Bama's recruiting class and that they have a bond that will never be broken. Christian Miller has said that Matt Elam and Joshua Casher became best friends on the vist. Elam also said that he loved Bama and so does his mom. I thought Elam was headed to UK, but after this visit, if I had to make a prediction, it would be Alabama..
