We know it’s coming, it’s only a matter of time. Texas A&M football defensive coordinator Mike Elko is going to get a head coaching job somewhere. He might even take a better offer for the same position at the next level. He’s one of the most well-respected, young defensive minds in football. He’s one of only a couple of coaches to have a Top 50 defense for seven seasons in a row.
He interviewed for a head coaching job at Temple this offseason before ultimately deciding it wasn’t the right opportunity. Now, an NFL coach is calling, and it’s one who has Aggie ties.
