Elko is the right fit

Agreed on swarbrick.....
Imo we are at a stage where experimentation/hoping doesn't cut it. We need proven high end commodities. Elko is another risk.
We'll see how it pans out.

Which "proven commodity" is coming to coach ND's defens? Give me 3 names that are better than Elko, who ND has a hole in hell at landing right now.

Remember that nasty Boston College defense last year? Don Brown, a very "not so sexy" hire by Michigan, had the Wolverines playing very good defense most of this year.

It's not about a sexy hire, it's about getting a guy who can coach, who the players believe in and who gets the most out of them.

ND is not going to pay the well over a million dollars per year and the likely guaranteed term it would take to get a guy like Jimmy Lake to leave Washington.
