J.D. PicKell details 'tests' faced by No. 5 Texas A&M as Florida looms

Key notes from J.D. PicKell interview

• I remember at media days, you and I were speaking about the Mike Elko hire and his prospects at A&M, having early success and the idea of building a culture. It sounds cliché, jumping one year to the next. That was kind of the excitement for Elko: He brings these things, the little things that make a big difference.
   
• The best example is Matt Rhule in his time at Baylor. In his first year, it was a trainwreck.
