3 prediction markets price this story:
- Mike Elko — the market puts it at 79%, closing 1 Feb 2027. The market resolves to Yes if Mike Elko leaves his position as head coach of Texas A&M or announces he will leave before February 1, 2027. Otherwise, it resolves to No. Readers often mistake the linked news story about a player for the relevant event, but only Elko's departure or announcement matters.
- Mike Elko — the market puts it at 1%, closing 29 Jan 2027. The outcome is Yes if Mike Elko wins the Bear Bryant Coach of the Year award during the 2026-27 college football season. The outcome is No if he does not win that specific award in that timeframe. Readers often mistake the linked story about Marcel Reed for the resolution criteria, but only Elko's award status matters.

Otherwise, it resolves to No. Readers often mistake the deadline for the end of the entire season rather than just the regular season.
