Endowment has nothing to do with the football coach. Can't use that money on a coach.

75 is crazy. Guaranteed is stupid.

Overpaid? Remains to be seen.
Regret it? Had to go big. If it doesn’t work out, we move on.

Why are you guys talking about this so much. Last year LSU fans claimed they could pay Jimbo what ever he wanted and now A&M actually did it . If KSU would signed Jimbo to this deal last year , you guys would be excited.

I remember when a school in the SEC was considered a sleeping giant and just needed the right fit or push or whatever.
I also remember people being sooo upset when that SEC school paid it's new Head Coach over a million a year. And he hadn't won shite anywhere he had been...
Many people thought LSU was crazy for paying Nick Saban 1.2 million a year 17 years ago. I would guess that was a pretty good investment for LSU.
The possibility does exist that this works out in A&M's favor. A SEC championship and a playoff appearance would change the national perception of A&M...like it did for LSU in 01 and 03.

Doesn't Sumlin get all of his money from aTm regardless if he gets another job or not?

$75 million over 10 years = approx $1 million per Power 5 win.... if Aggies are lucky

10 years is a long time. Good hire no doubt. But 10 years is too far to predict anything. Contract is not A&m friendly. If he fails, they are stuck.

We can fire O next year and pay less than what they for one year. Nobody is saying Jimbo is not better. The contract is one-sided.
So maybe that guy has a dime piece wife with a smoking body. But he had to buy her a house and a $100k Mercedes. I made off much better with my homely, chubby wife that no one else wants because she's cheap as frick.
LSU fans are sad.
