Sumlin has never won a title of any kind as a head coach.


Up until their title year in 2005 Mack Brown had never won a conference title either. It took him 22 years as a HC and when he finally did they won the whole damn thing.

So to act like b/c Sumlin hasn't done it yet means he likely never will is pretty stupid.

Even in Conference USA, with Case Keenum, he went 0-2 in title games, including Houston's best team ever getting raped by Larry Fedora in the CUSA title game.




Yes it was Sumlin's fault that Keenum uncharacteristically threw some really bad picks and that their best WR dropped multiple wide open TD passes.

I bet you didn't even watch that game did you?

Acting like Mack - who is the exception - is the rule is pretty stupid. Mack is an outlier. Going by the past 20 years of Natties, coaches who are capable of doing it have already done it or are WELL on their way by the point we are with Sumlin. Instead, Sumlin's following up an 8-win season in which we got dogstomped by our division's major players with an abomination of a recruiting class relative to what we need to compete in this conference.
