Bc Marcel couldn't throw a 5 yard pass the last month of the season and literally this entire board predicted our current issues if Elko didn't bring in competition.


But what do I know? I'm just a dumb armchair QB

The only cesspool is the A&M offense.

You spelled Program wrong HTH

The quote is FROM Elmo. Elko..in the press conference. He said he is building something.. I think he meant his bank account…

Has Elko lost TexAgs along with his team?

Never F with fans. We pay his bills by showing up to games and buying junk at Kyle.

Mike Elko calls Texas A&M fan site a 'cesspool' as backlash grows after third loss in four games

Texas A&M coach Mike Elko fired a shot at a popular fan site after the Aggies' 27-6 road loss to Missouri on Saturday, calling TexAgs.com a "cesspool" after A&M's third loss in four games.

Asked what his message would be to fans losing faith in his program, Elko said it depended on the fans, and criticized the users of the Aggie fan site co-owned by Billy Liucci.

"There's a difference to me between the fan base and social media. So there's one group that I really don't care much about. Billy's cesspool can go be Billy's cesspool," Elko said after A&M dropped to 3-3 overall and 1-3 in SEC play. "Our fan base, stay with us, be behind us. We're going to build something that we told you we were going to build. So we're in a really bad spot right now, but we'll work our way out of it."

Billy is pissed off

"That sounded like a head coach who was really frustrated in the moment after a loss. But it was just (the) wrong time and wrong audience to be saying that to, the way the season is going," Liucci told The Athletic. "It's never a time to call out the fans, especially when it's a large, loyal portion of your fan base. … I'm the target often on social media, even on my own message boards, but the criticism just comes with it. It comes with having opinions, coaching and having high-profile positions and high-profile schools.

Ten years from now?!?!

I don't post here often but I do follow the threads weekly but here's what I think a lot of people are forgetting…Mike Elko should have NEVER been hired in the first place! It was a terrible hire from Day 1! This is Texas A&M with more money than they know what to do with and yet this joke was what they thought was best?? You could've afforded every dime it took to hire Lane Kiffen or Kalen DeBoer and instead we hired one of the "good old boys" from down at the Golden Corral. Coaching is a joke and talent evaluation is an equal joke. We've watched a coach continually run Kellen Mond onto the field who was an absolute joke and now we watch this clown continually run Reed out there. This athletic department has no common sense in talent evaluation of coaches or players either one!

---

Couldn't go after DeBoer because of not being able to wait on him. How'd this work out? DeBoer Seems like he is learning his lessons and Elko isn't. If it's the right coach who cares about waiting.

It's mind boggling how Mike Elko called Billy Liucci a Cesspool because he should be focusing on his team, not TexAgs or social media.

---

Lol, silly AI.

He didn't call Billy anything at all.

Elko "won" his championship when he signed his contracts.

If he has any fire in him, it doesn't show.

Need to lock him in the film room with the Saban documentary playing on loop.

It seems he is looking for a magic fix but has skipped over all the little details to build on.

I'm sure it's hard with the players on NIL money, but some coaches have been able to figure that out.

Lolz. What dummy

Deboer wasn't going to choose A&M over Bama, so we'd have waited and then gotten burned.

With the way college football goes, you can't wait until after the playoffs.

But that's fine - we shouldn't go after some big name that is coaching at a major school in the playoffs because they'll require an insane salary and ridiculous buyout in their contract.

The jury is still out on Deboer long term.

I'd much rather go get a guy on the upswing with less resources, take a few years and move on if he isn't working.

I think the days of hiring a massive, known quantity are gone except for at a very few schools and A&M isn't one of them.

That was a better move when things like recruiting were more coach centric. Now it is more NIL centric, which means you can hire a guy that isn't established as elite and still recruit at a high level.

I don't agree. You don't fire Jimbo Fisher to hire Mike Elko. If you do you have to be prepared to pay.

Boys and Girls, I am selling T Shirts.

Incredibly stupid comment to make. Billy should shun him, but he won't.
