What Mike is talking about is exactly what I've talked about at UM whenever Harbaugh leaves. We've done the previous UM guy in Hoke and Harbaugh. We've done the "hot name" in Richrod and Harbaugh. There's nothing wrong with taking a guy exactly like Mike is talking about here at EITHER MSU or UM. UM is less likely to do it IMO because UM always seems to care more about the sizzle than the steak and their egos wouldn't allow a "who's that?" hire. But I love it ....Not the Duke guy specifically...but going along those lines to get an up and comer.
Winning at Duke - would YOU leave Durham for East Lansing? Why not give Harlan Barnett some time? Freeman working for ND. Grass not greener typically and very green at MSU.
I like Elko, but it's close between him and Jonathan Smith for me. Smith is younger with more experience and he's got Oregon State ranked. Also an offensive guy.
I've been saying to take Elko for several days now. Yes 100% absolutely. I'm already all in. However, in order to avoid the mass exodus of players we need him NOW.....not once the season is over.
Well I don't think you can get him now but if you do get him right after the season I think some Duke players would transfer over with him. Plus a few players who enter the portal next week or so (whenever the Tucker firing is official) could change their minds and come back. That is an option for the kids too, remember Connor Heyward came back after entering the portal.
@@Golfing422 When is the last time Kentucky won anything in the SEC? MSU has been to the playoff in the last 10 years. Cmon with the MSU is a basketball school talk. If MSU football was irrelevant you wouldn't be here talking trash.
Elko has TWICE -- with a bottom-ranked and middling defense (Bowling Green and TA&M) and turned them into top ten defenses. That's all you need to know. Sign right here, Sir.
While I do think that Chris Klieman would be a safe bet, by no means am I even the slightest bit enthusiastic about it. If they choose to go the conventional route and get a guy with a recognizable name, I think PJ Fleck is the best option. Problem is PJ Fleck is going to have much more attractive opportunities at the end of the season, and everybody knows it. Elko seems to be the consensus sexy pick, I'm sure it would be fine. I am personally way more interested in K-State's OC, Collin Klein. I get that many MSU fans would straight up laugh at the idea, but I really don't care. Whether you're a spartan or a wolverine, you have to admit that MSU is in a horrendous spot at the moment. They need to make broad, effective and sweeping changes immediately. MSU needs to completely overhaul the structure and culture of their football program. Collin Klein is only 34 years old and he's never been a head coach. So yeah, in that sense he's inexperienced and unproven. Almost completely unrecognizable as a name that most college football fans are familiar with. But the fact of the matter is that come the end of the year he's going to be one of the names on the obligatory short list of guys who are going to be in high demand to fill one of many HC vacancies. If I'm MSU, I'm going to go out and do everything I can possibly can to get that guy right now. I want something completely different, I want to bring in a new face with fresh blood. A guy who is going to be hungry to go out and prove himself to the rest of the NCAAF. A guy that can grow as a leader right there next to his players. But who the hell am I.
Lol Sparty is so gulible. Haven't learned anything from Tucker. He got that contract cause he beat Michigan. Now you want to go after Elko cause he beat a fraudulent Clemson team. Had he not won that game i guarantee he would not be mentioned. He's the shining name and your gonna fall for the banana in the tailpipe again.😂 As a Michigan fan please please please hire this guy.
Non bias, I would say, the dude who created what metro detroiters know as " The booty lounge " ... if you're not on that wagon. Stay with me. He should be welcome to legally function at Ford Field. Just a feeler and whatnot.
Urban Meyer's foul play off the field would seal Msu's fate even if it were to be after some major wins for the program. Then he'd get 'brain cysts' again and have to 'retire'.
MSU fans what’s your roll out for a coach? What are you going to say that will get them to come? We have the 49th ranked recruiting class and some of them are going to leave, we have bums at every position, we have an administration that’s in shambles and can’t be trust, a donor base that doesn’t want to throw out large money again. Like what’s your push?
What a stupid question. You'd be going to a Power 2 school that is 12th in the country in revenue, has some of the better facilities in the country and is a more desirable place for recruits. Oh and you would be getting a huge pay raise and would have 10X the support you would have a little ol Duke. This Tucker thing isn't that big of a deal in the long term for MSU football. If anything we get to get rid of a shitty coach without buying him out.
@@moose800 lmao. It’s a major fucking deal. You’re never going to be better than OSU, Um, OSU, usc, Oregon, maybe UW. So is MSU going to be the only major college opening this winter? There are way more desirable places than trash ass East Lansing
Not a good idea for a lot of these guys to take this job...kleiman leopold are doing well, wait for something bigger and better...candle for his 1st big job should avoid it, ditto for Elko...why
Why? Pretending like this Tucker thing is gonna effect MSU in the long term is silly. If anything we get out of his contract and get a real head coach sooner. MSU is top 12 in revenue, has billionaire donors who are ready to pay up again, will be in a top 2 conference, and have some of the better facilities in the country.
Please, just clean house. No more Tressels, Barnetts, Narduzzi’s, none of them. Young offensive mind that will spread this out, get a QB that can throw the damn ball. UM has already proven twice that offensive lines and running backs can’t win anything but the conference. Can’t even win a bowl game. Not interested in Bo 3.0. They already have Bo 2.0.
Tbh none of us know who will be the next great college football coach! Jason Candle or Charles Huff would be interesting, I think Marshal has a really good this year and last year they Upset Notre Dame.
c'mon sparties, tuck finally came after years of promising he would - u don't wanna get rid of him when he's finally living up to his billing. now he's claiming he has a medical condition - multiple strokes perhaps?
Hell NO! The whole thing smells like another Mel Tucker deal. Maybe just maybe MSU has learned its lesson and will go after a big time coach with a big time winning record.
There's no doubt in my mind that Pat Narduzzi is the next HC at MSU. How do I know? Because they brought Mark Dantonio in as a consultant for the team, and Narduzzi is his boy!
Michigan fan here. Elko would be a great pickup for sparty. I’d go all in on him if I was MSU
Take Elko in an instant. He's a top candidate for any school
Why would he leave a conference that’s getting weaker by the day, to go to a school in shambles ? For money? Just to by fired in 3-4 years?
@@lakewhite9416 Whether he would take job or not is a different question.
@@lakewhite9416Because Duke football is straight ass. They simply do not care about football there.
@@lakewhite9416 yeah money is kind of a big deal lol.
I’d take Elko in a second! Immediately.
Im a Michigan fan and I’ll say Elko would be a home run hire honestly.
Heard from a well-placed MSU alum that JMU head coach Curt Signetti was getting a look-see from the AD.
What about Jamey Chadwell at Liberty? The man won at Coastal Carolina, has 10 years head coaching experience and is the same age as Elko.
The alumni will boycott that in an instant.
I wouldn't want anybody who would work for the Falwell family. Hard pass.

What exactly has he done lmao? Beat Dabos worst team since pre taji Boyd?
I would take Jonathan Smith at Oregon State. Give that dude Big Ten talent and watch him work.
You realize he can get Better talent out of the west coast I’m a Michigan fan Mike Elko is your answer
@@jamesureel2853can any of you guys post a comment without including the phrase "as a michigan fan" dude nobody fucking cares.
Whoever made this thumbnail, thank you.
I’m here for all the Fraggle Rock references. I still want to know what a Doozer stick tastes like.
I would take Elko!!
Yep, IF I were an Msu fan (I'm not) I'd be all for hiring Mike Elko.
What about Lane Kiffin?
That would be funny lmao
I'll take him
Joey Freshwater?
Lame Kiffin would be taking a giant step down to come to MSU. Harder to recruit and the weather sucks.
@@jamesureel2853 So trade Hurricanes and summer cauldrons for some gray skies and winter weather - I'll take it
The thumbnail fucking killed me.
Thumbnail is wild
Winning at Duke - would YOU leave Durham for East Lansing? Why not give Harlan Barnett some time? Freeman working for ND. Grass not greener typically and very green at MSU.
Unequivocally YES. Right now.
Yes. Offer to Elko right now.
best thumbnail ever
Remember when the media said Coach D. was the "safe" pick. Look what CMD brought to E.L.
Yeah, and then he burned it down.
Jim Leonard, Elko and stoops are the only names that excite me
I like Elko, but it's close between him and Jonathan Smith for me. Smith is younger with more experience and he's got Oregon State ranked. Also an offensive guy.
Charles Huff needs a major look
I've been saying to take Elko for several days now. Yes 100% absolutely. I'm already all in. However, in order to avoid the mass exodus of players we need him NOW.....not once the season is over.

That is an option for the kids too, remember Connor Heyward came back after entering the portal.
With USC, UCLA and Washington the big will have high powered offense
If Elko wins 9-10 I’d take him. This may backfire but I’m hopeful and think they can possibly upset Notre Dame, whose coming off a big game vs OSU.
His resume leans 100% defense. That would bother me. He’s not well rounded enough.
Yes. Bring on Mike Elko
Yes im taking Elko in a heartbeat!
Yes I'd take Elko today regardless of the rest of the season
Mark Stoops from Kentucky. I believe he could be a good coach for MSU.
Lateral move, they’re both basketball schools.
@@Golfing422 When is the last time Kentucky won anything in the SEC? MSU has been to the playoff in the last 10 years. Cmon with the MSU is a basketball school talk. If MSU football was irrelevant you wouldn't be here talking trash.
@@HockeyTownHooligan5 Moving forward, MSU will be like Kentucky. They won’t be winning anything, even going .500 will be an achievement.
Thanks Mike! Added another name to the list of coaches I'd take. Elko and Mike Tressel.
I like Mike Tressel but he would be plan B.
Hell no on Tressel. I don't want retreads.
Please get Tressel
@@williamowen6399 He's ass.
@jayclean5653 Well if there is a lesser evils of retreads, it's Tressel.
No I want to go for it get urban !
Elko has TWICE -- with a bottom-ranked and middling defense (Bowling Green and TA&M) and turned them into top ten defenses. That's all you need to know. Sign right here, Sir.
Another note: I don't see him being a disappointment this year, either. Duke just held Clemson to 7 points.
I would take him
I'd take that.
Defensive head coach??
What about Lincoln Riley’s brother, Kliff Kingsbury, or Todd Herman?
Garrett riley scored 3 points vs Duke
Kingsbury still getting paid by the Cards
@@scninja07that doesn’t matter lol, Monty Williams is still getting paid by the suns but he signed with the pistons to be head coach
You call out the Mac but you do realize Toledo, who you were just praising, is in the MAC
I’d take Elko for sure
Pepper Jack love Fragle Rock
Thought Mike was done with the program and he doesn’t care anymore lol
Right?! 😂
I thought he is done with college football? 🤣🤣🤣
I would

I take it
Let the mascot be the head coach
Elko is elite
That's a no Brainer lol
Butch Jones will be available soon.
If you hire anyone decent, the next MSU football coach is going to have demand a no-fire contract on general principle.
Elko or Jonathan Smith
I just really want a defensive head coach.
Do you mean like Tucker?
I want a competent offense.
Wassup Debbie
Urban Meyer
Bwaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhh!!!!
You take it and don’t look back. Get him any assistant he asks for
Teddy Ruxpin or H.R Puffnstuff 🙂
Muppet Baby Gonzo with a Beanie Baby for an assistant.
good thing this is not a real thing. they have extra time to vet this out. nobody is getting hired for a few months.
Lol Sparty is so gulible. Haven't learned anything from Tucker. He got that contract cause he beat Michigan. Now you want to go after Elko cause he beat a fraudulent Clemson team.

Defense wins championships.
Throw 9.5 million at Chris Peterson or Urban Meyer
Urban Meyer's foul play off the field would seal Msu's fate even if it were to be after some major wins for the program. Then he'd get 'brain cysts' again and have to 'retire'.

The best choice
Nope, not unless he would leave Duke for MSU today.
That ain't happening.
@@stevekov6740 agreed
Give me Elko

I don't think his golf cart will get through recruits doorways though.

Not happening . He is never leaving Utah
