Elko is a solid hire.

You get him for cheap, he has head coaching experience, and you likely get to retain ERob and a lot of talent.

He's also already familiar with how things work in College Station so less of a learning curve.

Curious to see if he brings Santucci along as DC or promotes ERob.

Then he decided no.
Now A&M claims they pulled the offer to try and save face because a Kentucky football coach rejecting your job offer is a serious mark against any program.

I doubt that. Very bad institution to coach at. Great money but to many chiefs .

Hiring a guy who just finished 6th in the ACC.

At least the aggies appear to have accepted their place as a third-tier SEC program.

We all know the first casualty in any war, even the coaching search war for goodness sake, is the truth.

It isn't, We've been played for fools and I'm thinking it has to do with sewing seeds of doubt in players and minds as this crap is now all over social media and YouTube. It might a sip campaign clearly.

Bjork won't frick this up.

Do not let them infiltrate ranks

Agree. He runs co-DCs now. I could see them sharing the role.

The fans and donors probably did y'all no favors.

That is if that story is even true.

Because IF it is, it explains why nobody in their right minds want to go to that death certificate.

Going to go out on a limb here and say you own at least 1 tinfoil hat.

This site which I have mentioned more than once today - you KNOW of who I speak -has to be making the AD and University feel a bit "pantsed" in the moment.

I mean, they have to feel powerless here.

..even if the TA brain trust didn't intend to embarrass the AD, that is what will be said.

That is what will be written.

Rift, is it soon to boil?

I guess you didn’t see where Mark Stoops publicly stated tamu was trying to hire him and he told them to pound sand.

Congrats on Elko. His 9-7 record in the ACC is very impressive.

Shhhh...

This is where the Aggy'ing is happening and they don't even know it.

We like Elko cuz he's one of us hurr durr.

Not knowing they need to be running as far and as fast away from their past as possible.
