Oh oh

Is Elko starting to turn into Jimbo as far as blaming Lack of execution.


I'm reading it more as a dig on Bateman than on the kids, and I hope I'm right

Bateman should've never been hired as our DC

The guy has a track record of being bad.

He's all Elko could get.

Good coaches don't want anything to do with this program.


So Klein went with A&M and Elko over Penn State and Notre Dame. Thus, another swing and miss by you. TBD if it works out but Klein was sought after by big time programs besides A&M and two coaches in the final 8 at this time. Klein was a hot commodity when Elko hired him.

This is Elko's defense. So he's going to hire a guy that does what he's told in that area. The defense not doing well is on Elko. And it will still be on Elko if he makes a change at DC.

Just like Sarks offense is on him. It does not matter the offensive coaches he hires. It's on Sark.

I hate Elko saying I will never watch the defense play like that again. All he had to do was walk over to Bateman during the last drive of the Auburn game and the USC game and say damn it pressure the quarterback. We should ride or die with the blitz . If Elko showed some initiative late against Auburn and USC, then we may have two more wins and finish the year 10 and 3.

You realize it actually probably told bares to run the defense that was run.

It appears he thinks it's just lack of coverage skills and not that we did not get pressure on the QB.

This is Elko's defense. Not Bateman's.

I was specifically talking about Bateman, dumbass.

If you had basic reading comprehension skills you should have understood that.

I covered Bateman as well Einstein in my response. The reasoning he hired him and it's Elko's defense.

And my point on Klein totally destroyed your main point that sought after coaches would not come here with Elko.

Take the loss man and please if you can, learn something.

Wow.

That presser was filled with damning admissions of incompetence, to include impugning wins over Florida, Mizzou, and LSU by describing them as "lucky," and collectively describing the players as "not a good football team."

His frustration and anger induced candor may create more problems for him than the absurdity on the field.

It's good that we are now paying players to come to A&M. They certainly won't come for coaching development if they hear any of Elko's last four P4 post-game pressers or watch those games.

So, what is he going to do to the defense to "fix it" after admitting to an entire season of failure?

Saying he changed the culture....

Idiots still jabber jawing & dancing all year year long even though they suck ass

Star senior dlineman couldn't be controlled (nor was he ever disciplined) for all his egregious personal fouls

Couldn't pick up a yard against dlines w a pulse (effort)

Couldn't sack a qb or stop the run (effort)



Yea his culture change is definitely one for the ages

Our New Defensive Guru HC just admitted our defense sucks and has no concept on how to play defense. Only in College Station.

Just want to confirm, was that a burp into the microphone? You can't make this stuff up.


I know my burps, and that wasn't a burp. That was a gurgle!

You said good coaches don't want to come here. LB specifically addressed that comment. If you had basic........
