Sorry you are even more ignorant than the average UTrans fan on this site. All existing coaches are under contract. It was a dumbass thing to say. Some have buyouts , some don’t. The way UTrans fans on this site talk about Sark, I figured y’all might pay someone else to take him off your hands.

I did not realize that you were so concerned about Jimbo. The 12th Man Foundation donated $160 million to the athletic department at halftime of the game right before Jimbo was sent down the road. He was paid for before they let him go. I know that seems like a lot of money to a simple mind like yours but it is the cost of doing business in this industry nowadays. You probably don’t understand this but Elko actually has the potential in his contract to make more than Sark this year depending on how well A&M does.

I tried to use simple words so you could understand. Let me know if you need any clarifications

The Aggies will pay up and he’ll stay.

PSU is a notch below imo

Why the frick would he go to Penn St

Pretty much Elko’s take as well

agree. Only thing would be an easier path to the playoffs than going through the SEC. Otherwise, I see no advantage whatsoever. And it's cold. And they screw little boys.

He gone.

Texas A&M job >> Penn State job.

Aggies pay Coaches top wages and Elko knows if he hangs around and does well he will definitely be in the top 5 for CFB Coach base pay, and even his current contract has some very good incentives.

Also Aggies are very slow about firing Coaches.

You are talking out your arse. Aggies had the cash in hand to completely pay off Jimbo before he was ever called in to the AD's office to be fired.

Elko is a killer for sure. Would definitely like to have him on our staff next year. I could see Sark brining him on as an assistant defensive coordinator.

Oh you want me to tell everyone you were a scared little tattle tale?

Or does that confuse this hard persona you’re trying to have?

Elko went to the Ivy League. He isn't dumb. Going 10-2 at PennSt gets him to the playoffs every year.

He isn't going 10-2 at Aggie every season, but at PennSt it's a much easier path

He is as good as gone.

Elko going to be making more than $10M next year. Only real question is where

Not a question for me. If it’s a money thing A&M is solid. We have made some bonehead contracts but we also have never had a coach leave over money.

PSU, et al, better go ahead and take out that second mortgage cause A&M will absolutely match and then some.

What makes A&M a better job than Penn State? Please enlighten me.
It’s not at the moment. But, it is attractive enough to bump that $7 mil/yr to 10+. Gotta get that bag while you have Reed.

We’re not worried. Texas Women’s Volleyball is undefeated.

You know we’re not going to let aggy have a better football team than us, even if y’all have a better football team than us, haha…

Y’all really should put Elko on a diet and exercise program. Since he has y’all’s team almost respectable now, y’all should show some concern for the dude’s health…

And y’all should hire your coach a wardrobe consultant. Do you really want to risk Elko fashion against this guy, when y’all show up in Austin this year??
