Assume for this thread that everyone agrees with you and we need to run Sumlin off:
1) Who's your next guy that takes us to the next level? He beats Bama regularly; we live in Top10 and Top5; double-digit wins without fail; he takes us to the playoffs. He evaluates talent and recruits better; he knows how to manage and develop 4- and 5-star players with high expectations for themselves; he builds a stronger staff; he prepares and executes on a Saban level.
2) How certain are you that your new guy takes us to the next level? 75% ? 90% ? Higher?
3) What's your evidence that your new guy can do all these things at a Top5 or Top10 level?
Opinion and speculation are ok, but acknowledge that opinion and speculation are not the same thing as evidence.
One final note: This thread is not about Sumlin, so don't make it about Sumlin. This thread is about your next guy. Who is he?
