Would you be happy with Sumlin and Johnny Football?

Just because someone signs a contract doesn't mean they cant still break it. He'd have been breaking a contract if he wasn't extended and given a raise, he can still break the contract. Same goes for Briles. Buyouts? I lulz on "buyouts".

 

Of course he's not going to stay the 6 years that he signed for...but there was no way he'd consider leaving this year...or for at least a few seasons. He's too involved with rebuilding the program right now to get up and leave...unless an NFL team is willing to throw big time money his way.

He just signed an extension.

Look how much Chip Kelly is making right now. It's nuts. If a team wants Sumlin they can probably outdo Kelly's deal. Who said he's too involved in the rebuilding process? What coach isn't? Sounds like wishful thinking. He can bolt at any moment. He took more money to take more money. If he wants to leave he can leave.

 

whew, good thing we dodged that bullet
