There's no way the collective micropeen of aggy could handle getting publicly humiliated twice within 24 hours. If Elko wants, he could be cfb's first $25M/yr man. 

Would love to know how much they approved for/offered Dabo.

Has to be through-the-roof nonsensical.

But he also knows if he passes and has a decent season with Duke next year then he'll have a shot at a similar paying job with far less crazy to deal with.

How is this an upgrade ?

It's not Jimbo and so at least when aggy shits its pants they won't ALSO have to hear about how much they are paying their coach to shit their pants (contract terms pending).   That's it....that's the upgrade.

If this happens, it will get spun that he was the first choice after all and they got their man 🤣

[shnsajax 3,591]

Another reversal would be fucking awesome.

In the past 24 hours we have learned that Michigan St is a more desirable destination that A&M. Can we even call them a Top 20 job?

That man hasn't seen skis (or non-elastic waistband pants) in years.

[Horn Under a Bad Sign 20,395]

God I am so, SO hoping that Elko's using A&M's offer to squeeze more money out of Duke.

His wife must have learned about it. Gonna take a little time to “bring her around”.

North Carolina or Collie Station Texas. Gonna be tough for her to choose.

[Navin R. Johnson 705]

Elko needs to hold out for $15M guaranteed. Aggy will pay it.

[Pancho 44,761]

We know where their priorities are

 

 

[Hank Kingsley 20,923]

A&M had a very specific search where they wanted a beer-bellied former Jimbo DC that currently coaches at a basketball school.

Texas

Notre Dame

Florida

OU

Georgia

Florida St.

Michigan

Ohio St.

Miami

USC

Oregon

He must have agreed to a one year deal then.

[DixonHur 11,296]

So Elko went 9-4 his first year, then 7-5 his second year?  Not exactly the trend I'd want in an HC, but hey, I'm not aggy.

[GreenspointTexas 9,600]

I bet aggy loses every game next year as they prep every week for playing Texas at the end of the season

at least with Stoops you could feign that it was a long term plan.  this pretty much says we had no other choice because he's the only coach we could get that would keep/promote Robinson with the bonus that he "gets aggy".   he's also not a bank breaker and will accept a normal 5 year contract.

[orangebird 1,079]

I’m almost hoping they DO hire Elko.

I got shit to do at work this week, and another truckload of aggy misery will tank my productivity all to hell.

He has the same agent as Stoops.  He’s not taking a cent less and will likely ask for more

Because he quite literally has them by the balls. If it comes out he turned them down, A&M is on their 3rd choice at best. Can they handle the public humiliation?

[DanTheHorn 4,922]

Screen shot before he realizes that he is admitting aggy called and didn't even get a call back.

True.
 

I left off LSU and probably others.

 

aggy- other than that the insane compensation - is, arguably, not a top-25 job.

That's the deal with aggy.  They're a bunch of stupid hicks with money.  You can't stand being around them . . . but they have money.

[Hank Kingsley 20,923]

Aggies really milked that COVID year with Jimbo and Elko. That fat teat should be bone dry by now. 

 

[nnm 36,371]

I’m jumping in here on page 1283 to say that I’ve been driving for the last 10 hours from Colorado Springs to ETX. When I left at 5 am MT the thread was on page 1270. I have 13 pages to catch up on. So far I’ve learned about the Stoops reneg. It’s going to be fun catching up on the next 13 pages while Mrs NNM finishes out the drive. 

You couldn’t sell this as fiction. People wouldn’t believe it. 
I’m here for it.

But he lost to TU! I think that's why they probably didn't considered him. They could not have their new HC have a losing record against us.

So aggy said we'll hire you, but you're stuck promoting a one trick recruiting wizard to significant scheme and play-calling responsibilities in your area of expertise because the academic admin likes him personally.

Really professional management over at aggy.

I don't care what the salary difference is, at that level I'd coach in Durham over College Station without even thinking about it.

[ousux 5,597]

 

The publicity part is what aggy values most. Their greatest fear is nobody cares what they do or don't do.

[Beau Vine 54,215]

I am so disappointed that Kentucky and aggy aren't scheduled to play next season.
