Buyout is only $15m if anybody else wants him. It was apparently $13m this year and would have dropped to $10m on December 1, so $15m seems like a pretty good bargain compared to what it could have been!

Mike Elko on the verge of a new contract at A&M that will pay him $11m per season. Dude sure put in his dues following Clawson around at five different stops including the Spider sideline for a couple of seasons.

We've got his son representing the Diamond Spiders for another season...maybe dad will feel like kicking in some cash for more Pitt Field improvements?
