This shows how hard it is for black men in the coaching business. The black coach with the better record is fired while the white coach with an inferior record gets an extension and a pay raise. It is the same with all the hate for Deion.

Sumlin also made around $40MM at aggy, with buyout included.
He got jobbed, comparatively.

That's a bad look, especially these days.

The woke mob is gonna be coming for Aggy.

What's more: Aggy hated on Sumlin for years with those results. Half of the current Aggy group still thinks Jimbo just needs more time. It's so bizarre.

As they should. The NCAA should be even harder on racism than cheating.

Not a bad point. I tend to agree.

Incredibly dumb take, these two examples have absolutely nothing to do with each other.

Not correct though. Without the 10 year guaranteed contract jumbo would already be packing. So to say just bc he’s white is crazy. A&M got hosed on the contract. Same fear I have as an lsu fan if Kelly slips….

And sumlin went 7-6 in his last year. Could Jimbo match it?

The seasons don't allign because of the shortened covid year, Sumlin was fired before a bowl game, Jimbo fled the scene of an unfavorable Gator bowl matchup with Wake Forest, etc.
Meaning, there's only 10 games left to compare, as Sumlin coached 77 total for a record of 51-26.
If you spot aggy a Texas Bowl win this year and assume they end at 8-5, and consider 4 cupcake wins to start next season (McNeese, Bowling Green, New Mexico State, Arkansas) that puts our hero....
Dead even with Sumlin at 51-26.

Now do Tommy Tuberville, Gene Chizik, Ed Orgeron, Mac Brown, Les Miles, Dan Mullen, Jim Mcelwain, Mark Richt, Gus Malzahn, etc. (Just to name a few).

Sumlin never achieved 1/4th of what the aforementioned coaches did yet they were fired. Jimbo had a national title on his resume while Sumlin had... a winning season at Houston?

"Give black coaches jobs". We do. They underperform and get fired like white coaches and it's "so hard for black men in the coaching business."

But don't let me disrupt your victim mentality.
