Interesting you want to trash Texas A&M's coach. Y'all pay Butch $3m/year to lose every single "must-win" game you have.
15-17(.469) and 6-14(.300) in conference. Currently on an 11-game losing streak to Florida and a 9-gamer to Alabama

I don't think you can complete this list without Bert thrown in for good measure. Next year, you might be able to add Malzahn.
Ferentz would have topped this list if not for what's happening this year.

While there is some concern, we have a tough game vs SC to worry about first

Strong is trying to give life to a dead program. So he is not overpaid.

A team that he killed....

Wait just a damn minute. We want in on this too. They have a losing record to UF as well. Let's not forget we properly welcomed them to the SEC in their first ever league game by going into their house and beating them.
Que the excuses (Manziel's first game, etc.).

But considering where A&M was at before he got there, they have to pay him to keep him.

Meh, most coaches in the country can do what he's done at A&M on the high-end, but only a select few can lose 59-0.
ETA: To put it another way, only one coach in the history of college football has lost a game by more than 50 points while being paid more than $5M/year to coach.

Strong is a better coach. Sumlin is a fraud

Strong has a losing record while playing a weak schedule.

May not be popular with our fanbase but this is absolutely true right now. I understand we had to give him a raise after 2012 due to interest from other schools (USC) but he has not come close to earning the salary he is receiving. He wants to be a CEO head coach like Mack Brown but some of his hires (Spavital, Snyder) have been questionable to bad at best. He's not going anywhere for at least 2 years due to his contract so we just have to hope he addresses the offensive issues as well as he did last offseason on the defensive side with the Chavis hire. Just my 2 cents.
Posted on 10/26/15 at 8:55 am to Phat Phil
No question he is the most overpaid.
Posted on 10/26/15 at 8:55 am to Phat Phil
He's certainly up there right now

What I want to know is WTF is Sumlin actually involved in for all that money? Chavis handles the defense. A&M fans are throwing their OC under the bus and A&M is losing recruiting battle after recruiting battle for kids in his own state. I just don't get it. A&M's fans and school deserve better than him at this point with all the money they've spent on facilities, coaches and amenities for him to win.

Results say otherwise. Strong has been terrible in a terrible conference. At least Sumlin is 4-0 in Bowl Games, has been good in recruiting, and has a lot more significant wins playing in a much better conference.
I would put Bert above both of them though. Butch would also be there but he isn't paid enough. Kirk Ferenz is a perpetual overpaid coach and James Franklin definitely isn't giving Penn State their money's worth either.
