It is pretty much what he said. You may see it as “boxed in” but I also think it was an appeal to the boosters who were extremely pissed he was retained after 2016. Woodward has his own job to worry about as well and knew there was zero chance he would be allowed to retain Sumlin after another year like 2016 which is exactly what we had

He said he had to win. If he won, he would still be the coach here. That isn't boxing yourself into a corner

See the post above, that’s pretty much exactly what he said.

Y’all would be surprised, despite the one regent’s Facebook post, there was still a sizable amount of boosters that wanted to continue to give him a chance and would have been completely on board for another year or two extension had he been able to show improvement and the team heading in a good direction.

That didn’t happen, so hear we are. Sumlin had every chance and opportunity afforded to him over 6 seasons.
