Answering the Call

About

Texas A&M Football Defensive Coordinator Lyle Hemphill sits down with Ivy Robinson to share the story behind his path to Aggieland, shaped by his father’s career as a head football coach, a detour toward law school and a nearly 20-year friendship with Mike Elko that ultimately brought him to College Station. Lyle reflects on the coaching mentors who influenced him along the way, his defensive philosophy and what he believes makes Texas A&M unique. He also shares what he’s most grateful for after a career built on relationships and why he’s thankful for the support of the 12th Man.
