Josh Pate said it well on a recent show. ATM knows what they have with Jimbo. There's no mystery left, and there's no more excuses to be made. This is it with Jimbo...a more expensive Sumlin. So if there goal is to win a championship they know what must be done. It's not a matter of if but when if they are truly set on winning a NC. So the question becomes is another year of jimbo worth a little less buyout in a year? That's the decision that should be being made over there right now. Pate didn't say this but I would agree with what he said and add that the availability of HCs will probably factor in too. Maybe they think they can pull someone better next year or they have their eye on someone they want to see a litte more of. I'm guessing elko has to be on their short list of interview candidates

While the records are similar, Sumlin is a better coach than Jimbo at A&M. Sumlin had lesser teams and better offenses. Jimbo is only out talenting teams in order to get to bowl games.
