"Texas A&M is finalizing a six-year contract extension with Mike Elko that is expected to make him one of the five highest-paid coaches in college football, sources confirmed to ESPN. According to sources, the six-year extension will average more than $11 million per season. Elko, in his second year since arriving from Duke, has led Texas A&M to a potentially historic season."
"A win would give Texas A&M its first 10-win season since 2012 and second since 2000. The Aggies haven't started 10-0 in a season since 1992, which has only happened three times in school history. Elko, 48, was the ACC coach of the year at Duke in 2022 and is 17-5 in two seasons in College Station. He previously was defensive coordinator at Texas A&M under Jimbo Fisher from 2018 to 2021."
