## Resource

Mike Elko’s Texas A&M is heating up the SEC—and the College Football Playoff conversation. Already ranked fifth among SEC coaches by Athlon Sports, Elko’s defensive pedigree and elite recruiting—especially his No. 1-ranked 2027 class—are turning heads. After a strong debut season derailed by injuries, he flipped the script with breakout QB Marcel Reed, explosive transfers, and edge rusher Cashius Howell, leading to an 11-win 2025 campaign—the Aggies’ best since 1993. Despite a playoff stumble and staff shakeups, they’re reloading with 17 new transfers and 10 NFL draft picks from 2026. Elko’s Aggies? Back, bigger, and hungry for another shot at the CFP.
