There is no cure for BAS. It might lay dormant for a period of time, sometimes even a few years, but then it just flares back up with a vengeance.

Don't have to watch the whole video, but it's not very long. TLDW: in this day and age of college football, you're going to have off years. Texas A&M is better with Elko, just need to figure out personnel for next season.

He was supposed to do this, this year. Best secondary? He's in over his head.

The problem lies in the fact that there is significant fatigue, call it BAS, from the fan base. For decades we have been prodded, cajoled, encouraged, and told that if we only build this facility, or hire this coach, and now spend this much on roster/NIL, that all of the pieces are in place and we will compete for conference and national championships. The fanbase have heard this and are tired of hearing it. No one wants to see regression, we would rather see re-load.
A loss to Arkansas and/or Mizzou will cause the fan base to check out altogether. People ain't drinking the kool-aid or buying the sunshine anymore. So Josh Pate can espouse all sorts of wisdom that may be true but when its been since 1998 for a conference championship and 87 years since a national championship, people are gonna say "yeah right."

Elko may have made two mistakes with the coordinator hires he made.
We could expect some drop off losing 7 linemen and some key players but what we are seeing is poor coaching and play calling. We brought in supposedly good talent to replace those we lost. The two coordinators are the biggest changes we had from last season and are seemingly underperforming on fundamental football.
Fix the coordinators and I believe we get back on track?
It's understandable that you think that's right. But….oddly enough…it's not. Aggies have been "coming back for more" for almost 100 years. Every year there is hope, the stadium is full, and TexAgs is full of sunshine pumpers. Some may give up, but not enough to notice. And we're churning out new, hopeful Aggies at a record pace.Sgt.

Reed is throwing wildly uncatchable balls to open receivers. That's not an OC problem
The defense plays well through 2 quarters, and crumbles in the 3rd when it's clear the game is over. That's not (completely) a DC problem.
The one issue with the DC is that I think he changes nothing at halftime, the other team schemes a perfect drive for exactly what they just saw for 2 quarters. It works, and everyone gives up. The OC could also hurry the hell up on his play calls, but that may be an Elko philosophy, as that happened a lot with Klein too.
