I didn't think it was possible, but I am even more impressed with Coach Elliott today than I was before. I am beyond happy that my son will be in his hands for the next 4 years.

Hey, y'all made the same mistake I did in my Frisco post below - it's 2 Ts guys (Elliott). I also know how it is to have a last name no one gets right.

That's another huge plus, in my opinion.

Yeah, Coach Fisher put together a good staff, with all of his connections. Hopefully this report is right and they stick around since most seem to have some sort of connection to Charlie

Hopefully all of the other recruits & their families are as excited as you are about Elliott getting the job. I've seen some current players tweet and they seem happy about the hire.

Sorry, I'll do my best to remember this in the future.

Well it seems like i may be the only skeptic on here....

His complete lack of experience is pretty worrisome to me. This is the MVFC. The best FCS conference in the country and better than a few FBS conferences.

It seems like the players and media really like him so that is a plus. (and it is nice to hear that recent signees parent's are happy with the hire)

The whole staff stays in place to help him along is a big positive.

I really hope I am wrong and he proves to be a great hire of a young "up and coming" coach. He seems like a genuine person in his introduction presser.

Really wishing good luck to the Head Ball Coach Elliott!
