re: An accurate timeline of A&Ms DC search

Before lsu fans start trolling and flaming, LSU and Aggie sources appear to all agree to this, multiple LSU posters with insider knowledge posted this very same information on the coaching changes board. Aranda hears the drumbeats of Sumlins firing and contacts A&M AD expressing interest Fisher comes on board and follows up with Aranda after being told he contacted our AD Fisher also reaches out to Elko who has interest but is told to wait until Aranda is sorted out Aranda tells LSU he’s leaving due to AD cluster mess, gets record breaking DC contract to stay despite being unhappy Elko is contacted and confirms he’s still wanting to work with Fisher That’s an interesting ride for everyone

This is incorrect

Jimbo Hired
Elko on board a week later (2nd week of December) but waits until after ND game to sign contract for around 1.6
Aranda's people contacts Jimbo day Elko was to be sign
Ags offer Aranda a small raise to about 1.9 and give him 12 hours to sign
Aranda tells LSU to pony up, guarantee it, or he is gone
LSU obliges
Elko gets a small bump for coming after Aranda push and signs
