I believe that it was Channel 13 news that said Sunday night that Sumlin's new contrcat has a clause in it that he "cannot" leave and go to the NFL...

Why would he agree to that ? He can't want to live in a one horse town for the next six years, no offense.

"We live in College Station where Kevin coaches at Texas A&M University…WHOOP! I have the "bloom where you are planted" philosophy, so I have a fondness for everywhere we have lived…BUT I have made no secret of how much I love this place. College Station is a wonderful place to raise a family and I am grateful to be here." (Charlene Sumlin)

"For those who are unfamiliar with Texas A&M, please take the time to visit LINK . I realize each and every school has unique traditions, but the traditions here truly are the fabric that makes this place so amazing….Understanding these traditions makes everyone feel a real connection with this University that goes beyond football. Because so many of our families were unfamiliar with Texas A&M, we held our own "Fish Camp for Football Families" this year….so when the Yell Leaders were passing back a Yell at the first game, we didn’t miss a beat!" (Charlene Sumlin)

"We have a fun group here at TAMU called "Flab to Fab." There are usually eight of us wives who meet three times a week and get our behinds kicked by a mean man we call "Heavy T." I was going to take a picture of the group to share, but we have voted to ban all cameras from the torture sessions." (Charlene Sumlin)

"We also have a Coaches Wives Bible Study that meets once a week for coaches wives of ALL sports here at TAMU. The FCA puts this on for us and it is a really neat way to connect with each other in an environment that it safe, warm and understanding. So many opportunities for us to be lifted up by one another…I love that." (Charlene Sumlin)

"I tell myself, if I do MY job he CAN do his. I feel proud he doesn’t have to give a second thought to things getting taken care of at home. It’s not always easy, but I wouldn’t trade it for anything." (Charlene Sumlin)

Nah, Baton Rouge is the metropolis young energetic coaches dream of. College Station is a dump when you compare it to glorious Red Stick.

I think it's more like his agent can't take any calls and such. I mean Sumlin could just quit I'm sure. Iunno. Much like with this USC thing, you can't just freeze people out from agents talking and negotiating. I think this is preventing another USC-type raid from the NFL.

How many horses does Red Stick have? It seems like a goddamn horse-fest over there. We Ags are pretty jealous.

Calling College Station, Tx a "one horse town" when you live in fricking Baton Rouge is an affront to this entire message board.

Hmmmmm College Station or Baton Rouge that's an easy one. It's CS all day. As to why he would sign that contract, ever think that maybe like a lot of us he likes it here. I don't care how much of a homer you are for your school if you look at it objectively this isn't a bad job. It is actually one of the better jobs in the country.
