Remind me again what elko did at A&M as a defensive guy
He was basically the sole reason A&M went 9-1 in the all SEC covid year which is why he got hired away as a head coach. Basically A&M is looking at it as hiring an up and coming DC from within without having the on the job head coach learning curve because that was done at Duke.

Elko is likely to retain more players than Stoops would have. Elko recruited that number 1 class before he left. Elko’s known in Texas, is liked by Texas HS coaches, and knows the school. It was the right hire, not the sexiest hire from an outsiders view point. I’m hearing some staff is going to be retained. Should be interesting to see how he fills out his staff in the coming days.
