Local Fox station in Dallas reporting that Sumlin is out at A&M.  Says Jimbo Fisher on their wish list.

Link to the story:  http://www.fox4news.com/sports/colleges/report-texas-am-to-fire-kevin-sumlin-after-regular-season-finale

"Texas A&M will fire embattled head coach Kevin Sumlin after its regular season finale on Saturday, the Houston Chronicle reported Tuesday.

Multiple sources told the Chronicle that Sumlin will be let go after the Aggies' final game against LSU and that a win won't save his job."

I'd be surprised if A&M beat LSU.

This is what we should've already done.

It absolutely should have been announced this week that the Mizzou game is Bielema's finale.

maybe they are hoping that one of these schools that fired their coach early will "steal"  him and we wont have to pay the buy out

There has been no official announcement on Sumlin. All speculation just like our situation. Everyone expects Coach Bielema and Coach Sumlin to be dismissed but neither institution has made that official. Why jump on the U of A for having some class? Yea U of A leaders.

This Sumlin move was NOT announced by the school. It is coming from media REPORTS. There is a difference.

Thanks Moses 7. Some folks just are so bloodthirsty they don't seem to notice details.

He would have had a better record than CBB here but not by a whole lot. Look how much he underachieved with A&Ms recruiting advantages.

The way those FSU fans have gone full retard after one bad season I can see Jimbo bolting.  I mean, the guy is 82-23 at FSU with double digit wins 6 out of 8 years (the other being 9 wins and this year 4-8 (likely)) and has a national title.  We can only dream of results like that and some want to fire him after one bad year.  We are nothing compared to those idiots on the Crazy fan scale.

If he had that record here, we would build him a statue and give him a lifetime contract.

maybe we would have recruiting advantages if we had a coach that can recruit.

They must be entertaining a delusion they are Auburn, which fired a coach one year removed from a natty.

So what's Bert's record against Kevin?

If the Gus Bus passes us by, Sumlin is the guy I'm calling. Saw what he did with a group of talented freshmen. The man can recruit and coach offense and would love to stick it to AM. UCLA former player on XM today said he was 2nd on his list behind Kelley

FineAsSwine said he was only "marginally" better.    I think he Miles better.    Pun intended.

It's on FootballScoop also. Lot of jobs opening up. Not sure we should fire CBB before we sign someone. Don't need another Smiley and Enos failed as a head coach so I don't want him as an interim.

How many double digit win seasons and national titles does Gus have as head coach again?

what was the score last time we played auburn?

oh and, which of the other coaching candidates are you holding the same standard you are holding gus to?

An argument could be made that Gus = Sumlin.  Underachieved with elite talent.  Gus at least played some defense...that's about the only difference.

Speculating he may/will do likewise as the Hog HC is quite a bit different than being happy he's  already done it.  The fans would be in Hog heaven with those results from any Hog HC, not just GM.
