He’s voting with his wallet!!

So as a Duke fan what is your estimation of the chances that elko would leave for A&M? And how hard would Duke fight to keep him? What are his contract and buyout numbers like?

but how does it save the roster unless they have a good hire already on deck? "Hold tight in the face of many other offers at places where there are already successful coaching staffs in place, we promise we'll have a great coach announced soon!" I mean at best I can see some commits not immediately jumping ship and I guess that's all they can hope for at this point, a drowning man will flail around desperately at any tiny sliver of hope. you hate to see it.

$150 million definitely seems conservative, since the Jimbo portion alone is $76m. And why would a splash hire new coach take less than the shitty guy he's replacing and expected to surpass?

why would they make this move now unless they had someone at least in advanced negotiations? I guess they are who they are so there's no telling why they do the dumb shit that they do, but still. And I find it hard to believe that Lanning or DeBoer would even be discussing anything (even through agents) in the midst of a CFP run. Same with Norvell. It's very on brand for them to just assume they could get a guy who is literally in the middle of a top 5 national championship season to even listen to their bleating. (except as a way to get leverage for a raise at their current place) Elko makes sense, not a splash hire but he has already been there and seems to be doing well at Duke although he has cooled off from his white hot start to the season. Solid guy who has already been subjected to their weirdness, wouldn't be cheap but wouldn't be in the same stratosphere as what it would take to lure a DeBoer, Norvell or Lanning away from their respective great situations. Makes almost too much sense, which is why it probably won't happen. Klieman and Traylor also make sense but are not splashes, which again begs the question of why now? Also Klieman seems like he might be one of these program loyalty guys who stay at K-State for like 15 years to me. Kiffin would be funny, I doubt he would do it because it seems like he doesn't like A&M or their culture. But he has been nothing if not a mercenary in his career, so who knows? Kingsbury would be really funny, and the kind of hire I could see them trumpeting. "NFL coach! Knows not to walk on the grass! Offensive genius! Ray Bans!". but it's too funny to hope for.

Sark saying "lesson learned".

Every week somehow brings a win less satisfying than the last. fuck it, I'll take unsatisfying wins every game for the rest of the season.

can't wait to see if sark calls for a quick snap to catch them off guard here

Adonai Mitchell might have saved everyone there. unbelievable catch.

holy shit we are actually going to lose this game, huh? That's crazy.

this might collectively be the stupidest Texas team ever, from top to bottom

christ, what the fuck are you doing

Jesus fucking christ this team is fucking toast

I absolutely hate everything going on here, all of it

I feel like if Brooks had a season ending type injury they wouldn't be making him walk to the locker room without a brace or immobilizer or whatever

this is fucking stupid

Is the 30 point scoring streak going to end with a zero point second half? Let's find out together

great tackling, guys

Kendall Briles wanted a snack at halftime?

I liked that they were like "ehh these aren't quite done yet, better flip them and leave them on a little longer"

man, that wrap or whatever Mitchell wears makes his neck look long as fuck getting flashbacks of Scott Derry over here

go for the end zone right now

what the shit

nice job to get down on the 21 and keep us out of the red zone, maybe there's a chance for a TD here

hahaha smart play by ewers to throw that
