Lost to A State by 63 points (7-70) and is 0-5 this year. And Grant Gunnell who had committed to the Aggies before he walked is their starting QB. It seems it just isn't working out for either of them. Will he get fired and should we feel a little sorry for him?

63 point loss at home.

Last P5 school I saw have that happen to them was...t.u. 66-3 to UCLA in 1997.

On the other hand, Chase Lane is the leading outside WR for a potential playoff team.

Wait, what happened to that running qb who went crazy the year before he got there?

Damn people, get off each other’s back. I started this thread because I felt a sympathy for Sumlin realizing how far he has fallen in his profession. He is in his 50s and was in his third head coaching job. Perhaps he has an alcohol substance abuse problem and that led to his downfall. But it is an example of the pressure these people must be under to perform at these high levels. I feel for him from a human to human perspective but he had his shot. He is likely financially secure. But who knows if he will ever land another job? It’s a parallel to Johnny Manziel who I still contend was one of the most athletic and exciting college QBs I ever saw.
