When Mike Elko replaced Jimbo Fisher as head coach at Texas A&M, he created a culture of accountability by holding his coaching staff, players and himself to the highest standard.
In the process, Elko has also created a family environment in College Station. Following a 21-17 win against Arkansas in the Southwest Classic at AT&T Stadium, Aggies junior running back Le’Veon Moss spoke to the media.
“We are playing more together. He built a culture of brotherhood. It’s ‘Play for the man next to you.’ It’s a brotherhood. We stand strong together,” Moss said yesterday. “We pride ourselves on finishing the fourth quarter. That was the main focus, just finishing the fourth quarter.
“I knew my defense would get the stop, and we would run the clock out.”
Next up for Texas A&M is a challenging SEC morning matchup against No. 11 Missouri. The Aggies host the Tigers at Kyle Field on Saturday at 11 a.m. on ABC.
