Just read that he is an A&M alum. He has been great at both Tulsa and Clemson. Why not take a chance on a guy who is both a Texas native and Aggie alum???

He was a high school head coach 2 years ago. Not nearly enough experience to be an SEC head coach.

He was just a HS coach. He's not HC in SEC ready and if we hire Sumlin who is an offensive HC we aren't paying a million dollars for an OC. More like 400K

Im hearing that BOTH UCLA and Illinois are making more of a push for Sumlin than Texas A&M.

If yall get too picky you might end up like Ole Miss with a Freeze like hire.

Should have offered him to come as OC. Not HC.

We'll take what we want. Always have.

We haven't always wanted the best coach! But still.

That would be a HOMERUN HIRE IMO.

A&M fans are really starting to sound like Ole Miss fans thinking that they are better than what they are. You just had a 6-6 season in the BIG 12 and you are going to the SEC its not going to get any easier. You probably should have given Sherman one more year.

Name a coach A&M wanted that Texas took? We've never even hired a coach in the same year.

You, sir, are a failure

Kevin Sumlin will be our coach. I want to maintain Tim DeRuyter as DC.

Our D was #1 in the Big XII this year in YPP

What's the holdup???

IS UCLA matching yall's offer?
If you want a coach it doesnt take too long to hire him, look at Washington State they fire their coach on Monday and Mike Leach is hired the very next day.

He's not back from NY yet to notify his team. After the PR mess with Shermsn we are doing this with better tact.

He has a meeting with his team tomorrow. Expect an announcement soon after

And with all due respect to UCLA, we don't give a frick what they do. Sumlin will come to A&M for less money if we want.

Same as if we were both hiring basketball coaches. UCLA wouldn't care about A&M.


And no I'm not saying A&M football = UCLA basketball
