In the interests of accurately splitting the hair, perhaps Elan is the Trayvon Bromwell of his world.
Edit - Just to clarify, Bromwell is arguably the fastest of kind of the next generation of great sprinters. He's starting to show up on the lower part of the league table of all-time greats, but he hasn't been around long enough to really prove himself yet and has been a little inconsistent. He's got the 6th fastest 100M of all time, yet failed to make the Olympic finals because he botched his semi-final heat. If you follow track and field closely, you'd know who he is, but he isn't famous enough to have any awareness among the general public yet.
