Mike Elko is the RIGHT GUY for Texas A&M 👏 | Always College Football 

Most of the defensive players on the Texas A&M roster were recruited by Elko when he was here as the defensive coordinator. I don’t think his recruiting will be a problem on the defensive side. He will need help on offense I’m sure but he has 11 million dollars in his contract for assistants. I think he can fix that.

Your comment is 100% clear why you root for Tennessee.

@@knockout9446what’s u problem boi, I agree with him as a bama fan.

As an A&M Fan myself. I wasn’t too excited when Jimbo was hired. I saw him come and cherry pick the Top Texas recruits every year. When I saw Alabama steam roll through FSU I was a bit surprised considering all the talent he had. That was the 1st thing that came to mind when A&M hired him. Don’t get me wrong. I did kinda become a believer because of all the high ranking recruiting classes he was able to reel in. That feeling was new to all of us A&M fans. I think that’s why Jimbo was able to pretty much do what ever he wanted at A&M. Mike Elko on the other hand is a guy that I was hoping would be the next HC. I became a believer when I saw his defense dominate considering the limited amount of talent he had to work with.

@@knockout9446 I root for Tennessee because, 1 I live here, and 2ndly because I always will root for Tennessee. I wish Texas A & M success but, you asked me why I root for Tennessee.

He looks and kind of sounds like he’s from the South too. Also went to an ivy league school. Uses analytics for Offense. Elite DC.

He had a top5 Defense at A&M for years before they got their top recruiting classes, prior to Duke. That speaks for itself. He’s also only 44 years old. Alpha,

It’s no coincidence that the moment he left is the moment the Jimbo era took a nose dive

@mateoruiz1311 It is almost like the Dennis Franchionie era on repeat. Turned out Garry Paterson was the secret sauce to Franchionie winning so big at TCU. However, Jimbo was a far better recruiter than Franchionie.

@@davebryant8050no Aggie fan was interested in sanders in the slightest.

One thing we know, is he would be a lot better recruiter than Mark Stoops. Elko is 10 years younger, and just more of a player’s coach and hires better OCs.

Elmo helped set up the relationship with the players they recruited for that #1 class. Elmo, Terry Price and Robinson were the main recruiters.

@@dannys6976I assume autocorrect is the reason you’re talking about Elmo?

@@CullenRTerry yes and couldn’t correct it

@@dannys6976 ah ok

Elko was instrumental in recruiting almost every starter on the 2023 A&M defense. The only one he didn't have a hand in is freshman Taurean York. Every defensive lineman except Hicks and Kennedy, every defensive back except DeBerry, Thomas, Grimes, Rogers, and Brooks, every linebacker except for York and Sanford... all recruited by Elko.

You don’t leave a school you have done so well in for another school that hasn’t accomplished a whole lot. Have you heard of Jimbo Fisher? He won a natty at FSU and 5 years later went to Texas A&M. Dear lord people are so dumb 😂

@@danielstephenson2748 because he was offered 95 million. There ain't many schools who are rich like a&m that haven't done anything significant that can offer a contract like they did to jimbo. Might wanna rethink that last sentence and see if it applies to yourself.

@@danielstephenson2748to be fair, Jimbo won that natty with someone else’s recruits then after that season the program was a train wreck.

That’s not saying much.

Shall we compare W/L? Don't think A&M or Duke are in the CFP.

@@stischer47 And don’t think Texas is in the playoff either lol. 1 loss teams have no business in the playoffs

@@stischer47my Crimson Tide going to CFP over the horns. The SEC Champions Has Never Missed The CFP.

@@thejackboxbro relax Alabama ain’t beating Georgia

Better contract for the program instead of throwing money bags up front there are incentives. Is how Jimbos contract should have been. Luckily we got rid of the guy that gave him the unbelievable contract. He’s Ohios problem now.

Because they all reach out through their agents so they don't compromise their current jobs. What they don't want is exactly what happened to Mark Stoop. To tell your current team you're leaving, then have to show up for work on Monday.

Oh man, solid argument. That's like telling a fat person they can never lose weight or shouldn't strive to do better. Just an ignorant and lazy "argument."

Six years, 42 million

Seriously well thought out argument. Your past dictates your future, no flaws in that logic at all. "You have the money and resources to do better, but why are you trying to do better." College football has some of the dumbest fans ever, usually people who can't get admitted into the school they root for.

They’ve actually been above average with win percentages in the SEC but unfortunately can’t seem to win the most important games. Hopefully the new coaching staff can’t meet those expectations.

This is definitely an upgrade from Jimbo

You can just say you're a casual. You don't have to prove it in such self-demeaning fashion.

What is your evidence for your statement. He’s no stranger to the program and while he was there he was a massive asset.
