re: Texas CB Roney Elam visiting for Spring Game.

Roney Elam, CB, 6-2, 180, Newton HS, Newton, Texas

When the Tigers offered Elam in February, they were the first to do so. Well, things have certainly changed since then as Alabama, Baylor, Mississippi State, Texas, Texas A&M and Texas Tech have all followed suit. He is being recruited by LSU wide receiver coach Adam Henry, who also recruited and coached a couple of Elam's current high school coaches while he was on the staff at McNeese State. The relationship has been forged, and the Tigers are in the mix. As for what kind of player he may be, I haven't seen film of a corner other than LSU commitment Kevin Toliver in the 2015 class that can compares. By National Signing Day in 2015, Elam will be considered by everyone as one of the top defensive back prospects in the country. That is why LSU was eager to be the first one to throw their name in the hat.
