When the NFL is prepared to offer Sumlin the control he needs and the money he deserves, he will go. If the NFL was smart they would have done that already, they haven't, he didn't, they are dumb.
Problem with that, is that now we like winning. We will pay whatever outrageous amount of money it would take to keep him in Aggieland.
Enjoy it.

Jesus you guys are defensive. All I'm saying is Sumlin is an amazing coach who should be garnering more attention from the NFL.
I think coaches like Sumlin are looking at the NFL and how they are handling young QBs like Manziel and thinking, 'these guys are dinosaurs'.
And they are. The NFL has to adjust to the playstyle that is proving so effective in college because college is their talent source. The assumption that college players should adjust to the way the NFL is playing football is a perfect example of dogmatism.
I'm not advocating Sumlin bail on A&M, I just see it as an eventuality. He is still pretty young, It's hard to imagine he doesn't have the itch to try to succeed in the NFL.
I don't think any college program could steal him from A&M, but the money thing can't compensate for the different platform that the NFL is.
