It appears Mike Elko will be making a return to Texas A&M.
Yahoo Sports can confirm reports that Texas A&M is on the verge of hiring Elko as its next head coach. Elko was the defensive coordinator at A&M from 2018 to 2021 and then spent the past two seasons as the head coach at Duke.
Elko, 46, inherited a Duke program that went a combined 5-18 overall and 1-17 in ACC play in 2020 and 2021 and quickly transformed the Blue Devils into a winner.
In 2022, Elko’s first season in Durham, Duke was one of the biggest surprises of the college football season as it went 9-4.
