Maybe I just check their 247 site and they don’t seem to pleased with that choice either.Duke head coach Mike Elko. He was DC there a couple of years.

They should. I would rather have Stoops.Duke head coach Mike Elko. He was DC there a couple of years.

This is the hardest part for me to comprehend. Why would you spend that kind of money without a sure fire plan?Hard to believe they pony up 75m to fire Jimbo without their guy already on board.
Another DC hire. When will people learn?Duke head coach Mike Elko. He was DC there a couple of years.

It's unfathomableHard to believe they pony up 75m to fire Jimbo without their guy already on board.

They are definitely delusional on who their options are. The want a Saben, Smart, Riley, Dabo and that’s not happening. They’d be best off taking Deion.Maybe I just check their 247 site and they don’t seem to pleased with that choice either.

For sure. It’s absolutely killed Georgia. Oregon suffering really bad as well.Another DC hire. When will people learn?
There’s your measuring stick. You run off Mark Stoops and we’ll be choosing from someone no more accomplished than Mike Elko. I’m going to need something a little worse than 7-5 with a third straight win over Florida and fifth straight win over U6 before I’m looking to take that risk.Man, if A&M can really pull Duke's DC just think of the superstars waiting to coach UK
I'm thinking Stoops will leave on his own in the next few years. By then, Sumrall or Coen will hopefully step in. It was pretty eye opening last night for those few hours when we thought we had to find a new coach. I like Sumrall, just think he needs more time. People suggesting Neal Brown are hilarious. I wouldn't be surprised if WV fires him soon.There’s your measuring stick. You run off Mark Stoops and we’ll be choosing from someone no more accomplished than Mike Elko.

Kept it in the Fisher tree . Stoops was Fisher’s DC as well ( at FSU)

First off, it’s not Duke’s DC, it’s their head coach. Second, there are likely much better options out there. This certainly isn’t a home run hire.Pretty shocking they'd pay Jimbo 70 mil to not coach then with a blank check pursue his two former assistants. None of this makes any sense.
Starts to make me curious if there wasn't more to that firing than what's public.
Exactly. That's my point all morning. I'm fine with moving on from stoops when there is a better option we can get. A&m had a blank check and the greatest of everything....and this is who they got.
UK has none of those advantages, just for perspective. The very best we could do is summral (whom I love) but he comes with an unproven staff. You don't just fire this staff to roll the dice especially with this ad

I’d be ok with Sumrall. He’s a little bit of a wildcard due to lack of experience, but he’s killing it so far albeit in a weak conference. Looks like we will have a couple more years at least before we start searching for Stoops’ replacement though.I didn't say he was Duke's dc
It certainly is not, which tells you the caliber of available candidates. If they can't hand a blank check and do better than this, Mitch definitely isn't doing better
The 2 years vs 11 years is actually probably advantage Elko.So Elko with 2 years of HC experience with Duke in the ACC makes fans happier than Stoops with 11 years HC experience in the SEC??!! Okay I guess……🤔
He is head coach at DukeMan, if A&M can really pull Duke's DC just think of the superstars waiting to coach UK
I think they’re holding out for Bill BelicheckMaybe I just check their 247 site and they don’t seem to pleased with that choice either.
Really, you think it's impossible to hire a coach who could win 2 SEC games and a beat our rival?There’s your measuring stick. You run off Mark Stoops and we’ll be choosing from someone no more accomplished than Mike Elko.

Such a powerful replacement! That moves the needle.Duke head coach Mike Elko. He was DC there a couple of years.

According to our history? Yeah it’s kinda tough, what about the years he wins 5 SEC games. That’s happened 2 times now. He’s not flashy, and has sucked against Bama and Georgias of the world and that sucks. Reality shows that we don’t have much shot unless we just got lucky to find someone who would.Really, you think it's impossible to hire a coach who could win 2 SEC games and a beat our rival?
My God, our fanbase has some serious beaten dog psychology going on.
That’s why they pay 75 million to fire Jimbo, they obviously have the money but not the other things needed to make good moves. They are like a Dumbass kid who inherits his Fathers Billions. Probably doesn’t know shit and would blow it if it wasn’t handled by advisors and accountants and everyone else but him.Most likely. They wanted the coach to come from Day, Deboge or Lanning. They all said no. Supposedly the Arizona coach was told the job was his, until the AD went rogue and called Stoops and you decide if an off was made or interest show. When that happened the Arizona coach removed his name. The Arizona coach is who they wanted after first 3 said no. So they were left with Elko after the first 5 turned them down. And no ATM fans are not happy and want AD blood. Hard to believe they pony up 75m to fire Jimbo without their guy already on board.
Whoever ponied it up had to have had a huge say In Who they wanted. I would have to believe they signed off on this move and if not it could be trouble.This is the hardest part for me to comprehend. Why would you spend that kind of money without a sure fire plan?
And he also recruited some high caliber recruits, I highly doubt the Duke coach has been in many big time recruiting battles. Maybe when he was DC there?If we had a head coach vacancy right now and you had two choices who would you take? Mike Elko or Jimbo Fisher?
I'm taking they guy that notched the Natty.
Agreed. How csn they not draw kiffen Dabo Heupel, Lanning , is kind of baffling. All that NIL in Texas….you could win big thereSo Elko with 2 years of HC experience with Duke in the ACC makes fans happier than Stoops with 11 years HC experience in the SEC??!! Okay I guess……🤔
