Someone needs to count the number of times York was burned while attempting to cover the forward pass. Write that stat in braille so this blind guy can see.
Why don't you count them smart ass? Or go get some gear on and show everyone how great you play the position.
I'm out of eligibility. Sorry.

Go get Dennis Allen and make him Asst Head Coach.
This is one of the most realistic "hire an Aggie as coach" scenarios. Unless he really wants to stay in the NFL, the chance to come home and put his mark on a defense/program and get more shine on his reputation (if he ever wants to NFL again) might be good draw for him.
And hey, he's been an interim HC a couple times. Just in case.

Well I'm sure you were flawless on every single play you played.
As for York, he's a hard worker, a good football player and probably the most aware defensive player we have. And he makes plays…82 tackles on the year, easily the team leading tackler. Using pass coverage skills to dog the guy is ridiculous. Or maybe we should put Ricks at LB so we can have better pass coverage from the position.

Haha, ok Mrs York. That's real awesome that he leads the worst tackling team that we have fielded in years in tackles.

Watch out. When I made the similar observation during the USC game, I was accused of just hating on York instead of just pointing out facts.
York is a liability just short of Ricks. Neither should be on the field if we're serious about playing for a championship.
You can't state yorks weaknesses or his bad plays every game. He guesses way too much and has missed so many tackles.
Hopefully he can speed up his reads. We are way too slow to trigger on inside runs.
Your accuracy in assigning blame leaves a lot to be desired.
I can't forgive Santucci for blowing the Anthony Hill recruitment. He sucked at recruiting.
What was the story with his role in Hill's recruitment again?
I remember hearing Santucci was a scapegoat

Pretty sure staff has debunked that rumor a few dozen times.
A former NFL HC is going to return to college to be a DC. Maybe say it out loud first to see if it sounds ludicrous or not.
he was offered lb coach.90ags said:
Doesn't add up as Santucci was offered job when Elko first joined, and he turned it down (didn't want to come back here).
Now, what I don't remember is which job was he offered...maybe it wasn't DC originally. Aware Santucci was exactly happy here the first go around, but maybe due to Jimbo (wasn't a fav of mine personally).
A) Great if we're making changes.
but...
B) It's the end of year 1 and we're already recycling failed retreads. WOW. Was Gary Darnell not available?
Part of real leadership is identifying, attracting and developing talent. I don't care how smart Elko is on paper. We're seeing some clear red flags here.

You guys are missing the forest for the trees. This shows that changes will be made to the D staff, DC, position coaches, whatever. This is only a positive development overall.
100%. A lot of TexAg fans suffer from the trees within the forest.

Yeah let's just hire only coaches that we are 100% sure will be successful and only recruit players we are 100% sure will be first round talents. Surely there's a deep pool to choose from.Farmer_J said:Aggie Dad 26 said:AWP 97 said:
Yeah, hopefully Santucci has improved considerably since his time here. Not 100 percent convinced by the few Georgia Tech games I watched but that may have been a talent issue.
The fact that he's being considered is disheartening. How about hiring someone who's a sure fire guy?
What is a surefire guy? I thought that was Jimbo.?
This sentiment is why we are losers and will always be losers. "Yes, he sucks at football, but he is really hard worker so cut him some slack."

Doug Marrone and Bobby Petrino as well.
Man, he's even slower than I remember when I actually key in and watch him.

Don't you dare say that. He does all of his homework, eats his vegetables, and he is a good boy!
Looks like Maimi and Clemson are taking a run at DC Tim Banks from Tennessee, whose contract is up.
Anyone pursuing at Bateman?
Didn't think so.
Didn't think so.
By any measure York was excellent last season (2023) playing next to All American Edgerrin Cooper. However, position switch and being the QB of the defense and making the calls then making a play has been too much for him. His run fits are average at best. He was good vs. lsu, bad vs. cow and terrible vs. USC.
We need an upgrade at LB and York would benefit from just playing, not everything else..

Looks like OU has found their new DC. One less team to worry about.

If you really believe that the criticism of the team's leading tackler by anonymous posters on a message board with no identifiable credentials is the key to the programs success just have at it.
Bama just fired their co-DC after one season.
We need to make a change, and it starts with Bateman.

His agent is just using our name to get more money.
If he comes here Elko will be the actual D coordinator.

This is just one example of many why this is a loser program and will always be a loser program.
