Because Sumlin was offered a job by the Philadelphia Eagles, by USC, and by Auburn - and A&M had to pay him that much to keep him. It's the market at work.




Speaking of market, what a horrible ROI for the Aggys.

They could have had Mike Leach for half that and would have gotten the better coach out of the deal.

The correct answer

A&M fans like KaiserSoze99 only care about attendance and recruiting rankings, not wins and losses, and Sumlin delivers both. They'd rather win the February recruiting battles and have the highest attendance than win a title of some sort.



The correct answer is still frickLSU®, but bro.

Seriously.

Do even know how an athletic department works???

You know whose agent sucks? Dan Mullen's. He couldn't even get into raise season before Florida was telling people they would never be interested in him.

Florida fired Muschamp and at the press conference where they announced it, Foley was like, we just came to terms with Will Muschamp and we also wanted to say that Dan Mullen could never be the coach here. Thank you. What was that all about?

insecurity.

the aggies have languished in mediocrity so long that they mistakenly gave sumlin credit for their first year in the sec.

"omg, somebody will steal him; let's give him 5 mil"

I feel like it has something to do with Texas and endowments.
