Well, agree to disagree on that point.

Sumlin is nowhere close to being on the hot seat.

Sure, but it isn't something that is an advantage for us.

Recruiting is where we have the biggest advantage. We've been (and are currently) ranked higher than both Auburn and USC with more to come this year.

But I think Boom has a unique perspective on that, seeing as how he coached at Texas when they were eating our freaking lunch in recruiting. We are a newcomer to the "top 10 Class" club, Auburn isn't.

Overall everything has to be the right fit. A coach can succeed in one place and not another while being the same person, and it's the reason that a coach isn't always going to chase the biggest paycheck. We can't just throw money at any problems that come up is my point, and this knife always cuts both ways.

Agreed 100%. One problem is if we throw everything at Boom then maybe we don't have the money to replace the OC if that needs to happen next season, or the next head coach might have a miniscule budget starting off which starts the cycle all over again.

Again, I don't mind if we don't get Boom as long as he rejects us for a Michigan and not Auburn.
