Indeed. I attended 5 or 6 ACC football games this season, and the level of competition is MUCH lower than the Big 12, BIG, and SEC. With the obvious exception of Clemson (they have some top-end athletes on D).

Probably this. Elko should be in no hurry. Just keep winning 8-9 games a year/knock off UNC every couple years and they’ll bronze him at Duke.
Hell — if Elko consistently wins 8-9 games a year at Duke, they’ll re-name the stadium after him. Cutcliffe had 2013-2015 but never really achieved sustained success.

He’s gotten offers from ~10 other D1 programs (not just aggy). So coaches must be seeing some potential at the next level. But agreed, he’ll struggle to get separation against faster, lengthy DBs.

In all seriousness, I feel like NC State (losing O’ Leary), Wake Forest (losing Hartman), and UVA (losing Armstrong) would’ve been good options. And more of a culture fit to a kid from Lake Travis than the frozen tundra of the BIG.

At this point, I’d bet almost anything that aggy hires an assistant from a CFP playoff team. They won’t be able to pull away one of the OCs, so they’ll pay ~$2 mil/year for a young position group coach (receivers coach, OL coach, etc.). That way, Jimbo can retain control and still change the narrative.
Luicci: “I told y’all to be patient — Jimbo had to wait for the semis to end, but he got his guy. My sources say that Coach _______ had an outsized impact on TCU’s scheme and was key to Duggan’s development. With Coach _______ on staff, expect for Weigman to make a similar jump in Year 2.”

I'm a sucker for Guillermo del Toro movies, so I thought Pan's Labyrinth was pretty fucking good
Agreed wholeheartedly on “Pan’s Labyrinth”.
Under Technical achievements, I would add “The Fall” by Tarsem Singh.
Under Sci Fi, “Arrival”, “Ex Machina”, and “Sunshine” are top notch.

Ok, here’s a counterpoint on this potential hire.
Texas has watched that damn OU offense put major points on the board since 2000. All that time, Texas never went out and copied it.
Even though people claimed the OU offense wasn’t robust enough to win a title post-2000, it’s really been the defense that has always been the major flaw to OU’s success.
Maybe this guy allows them to steal that offense.
Hmm, I could be wrong, but I doubt college football’s offensive wunderkinds (Riley, Kiffin, Sark, etc) divulge the intricacies of their system to the entire staff. Plus, even if an assistant stole the full playbook, they probably wouldn’t be able to replicate it successfully. A lot of the value a guy like Lincoln Riley provides is in game planning, situational play calling and adapting the scheme year-over-year.
