re: Elko's salary will be bumped to $2.5 - $3MM is what insiders are saying

Elko has been a vast improvement, but let’s not pretend he’s not downstream of a vast improvement in defensive recruiting, particularly on the DL. A&M didn’t field a legit defense until Jimbo got to town.

Elko and his staff had nothing to do with that? Even with subpar talent at wake forest, elko has shown he’s at the top with Xs and Os and now that he is at a school that can recruit better jimmy and jos, his defenses are at the top in the country. Jimbo is definitely the best recruiter on the staff, no argument there, but elko has shown he is an elite recruiter as well.
