John Chavis spoke with Kevin Sumlin minutes before LSU Bowl game.

Derick E. Hingle-USA TODAY Sports

On ESPN's Mike & Mike radio show Wednesday morning, Texas A&M head coach Kevin Sumlin confirmed that he was speaking with John Chavis when his pool boy tweeted out that he was at Sumlin's house and saw him speaking on the phone.

Here is the original tweet, and Sumlin's response:

The pool boy's tweet (Rusty McFarland - @mcfarlandrk8) was sent out around 2:38pm ET. LSU kicked off against Notre Dame in the Music City Bowl that same day at 3:00pm ET.

LSU's No. 8th ranked defense allowed 449 yards in the 31-28 loss to Notre Dame. After the game, Chavis refused to answer questions about Texas A&M and said he was not distracted by anything prior to kickoff. Here is video of Chavis after the game.

What crap. You would expect more from someone like him, just goes to show he is as slimy as the last one that left us in the lurch. I hope we kick the S#!t out of them this year.

What's even more disgraceful is that someone actually wasted time investigating this crap in the first place.
Jeeezzzz.

Chief obviously was pissed at someone from LSU to act like such a turd in the end. Wish he had resigned and not wasted the bowl game but I guess he was trying to save his 400k.

If this is truly how he handled it, then I have lost all respect for him. What an a-hole to be doing that while his team is about to hit the field for a bowl game. He let those guys down big time and I hope he is a colossal failure at A&M because of it.

I understand that coaches leave all the time for greener pastures, but this just screams unprofessional.

Oh yeah, if Alleva is part of the reason this was done this way, then he needs to eat a dick too.

How people are saying LSU in this situation is beyond me....Frick you Chief.

Did the pool boy really get fired? Poor guy, just trying to make a honest buck.

CalTiger53•112 months

Who cares? He is still 3rd and Cahvis. Glad he got a good retirement package form TA&M

Classless P.O.S.

I don't like to get on here and bad mouth the players or coaches but if Chavis really was on the phone with Sumlin 20 minutes before kickoff of LSU's bowl game, he really back stabbed the players and other coaches big time. Pretty shitty that he couldn't wait another 4 hours to talk A&M. Piss poor move "Chief".

" he really back stabbed the players and other coaches big time."
Players said it after the game. A&M players should remember this.

Pretty fricked up on Sumlins part as well to try to get in contact with a coach right before a game.

Was at the game and when the team arrived Chavis wouldn't even look at the fans as he walked up!

Camos9812•112 months

He left a LSU team that's full of talent and he know it time will tell for him to realize it

Louisianaboy87•112 months

How classy. Seriously, you could tell Chavis was checked out. He didn't even put emphasis on the game plan. Les Miles himself said after halftime "Guys are out of position" who's fault is that Les?
