Man...this guy is rollin' in the $$$.  I think his buyout from aTm was $11.0MM in cash.  Now he's got another job paying him a few million/year I'm sure.

I honestly think he will be a better fit there than at TAMU.

Anywhere he landed would be a better fit than at A&M.   :unsure:

Sumlin might succeed in a conference that went 1-8 in bowl games.  Based on the offenses and defenses they put on the field, I think of the PAC12 as the Big12Light these days.  Dilly Dilly.

I think that's fair. Sumlin came from Houston, lots of O, no D. That's what he'll be going to.

Apparently revenue is down in the PAC12, much lower than the other Power5 Conferences.  Their network is struggling, and they rarely get prime TV coverage.  For these reasons, their teams mostly struggle in the recruiting wars.

And Aggie fans are unrealistic, expecting to win a natty playing in the same division as Bama, LSU and the Barn.  At Arizona, Sumlin just has to exceed RichRod's 7-6 record, and beat Purdue in a bowl game.   :lol2:

I had no idea that Sumlin was born in Brewton, Al.

Now that Sumlin is some where besides the SEC he make good. When he was at Houston he was beating out west and in his conference but playing the hard work and hard nosed SEC you don't win everyday well except Alabama. RTR!
