I saw in Landyn's Jonah Williams thread that people were griping about Elko not wanting to spend money on "elite talent" and that's why he'll be a failure and A&M will never win and then someone jumped off a building and blah blah blah.
Now, I told you in the spring that Elko let some guys walk because they weren't worth the money they wanted and it could be allocated in a better fashion. So, for those of you supporting the "I want one elite and not three really goods", I submit the following:
What if the $1.4 million Evan Stewart got from Oregon was used instead on Nic Scourton, Dezz Ricks, Trey Jones and Cyrus Allen? Is that a decent return on investment compared to Stewart, who didn't score a touchdown after Auburn and was known for being the king of the training room -- but is, unquestionably, an elite talent when he wants to be?
