The Texas A&M Aggies' momentum came to a halt this past weekend when they were blown out by the South Carolina Gamecocks in Columbia. Of course, the loss was due to far more than just one player making mistakes.

But sometimes those are the best choices. So far, Mike Elko is looking like a home run, the former Duke head coach who got his start in coaching as a graduate assistant at Stony Brook and had stints at Fordham, Hofstra, Richmond and Bowling Green leading the Aggies to their first 5-0 start in the SEC since joining the powerhouse league in 2012.
