Well the problem with giving that to Sumlin is that he's absolutely failed at repeating any kind of success in the SECW. His coaching hires have been unremarkable failures. Even the one good year we had the defense was horrible. And that year the whole O line was future NFL. So once again I ask the question what has he done? I don't give a rat's ass about overall record of 8 wins when every year half of those wins are against the weakest teams in the country. I care about SEC record. and sub .500 ain't cutting it. chronically finishing 4th and 5th in a division with only 7 teams is pathetic.Exactly how much worse can we be?Tamu_mgm said:Wow some of you guys literally can't give credit to Sumlin for anything. I don't think you read what you put. So Mike Evans was already polished, ready to go and only developed under Sherman, but then basically plateaued for the 2 years Sumlin / Beaty were his coaches. Sherman had the guy for ONE year and he didn't even play that year, whether he tore up the scout team or not. Sumlin and Beaty helped take him to that next level for the 2 years they had him and he actually played.TXM Pride said:TommyDreamer said:
Who gets credit for Mike Evans development?
He tore it up on scout team when he redshirted. Both him and Johnny. By the time Summy got here he was already the WR we got to enjoy watching for 2 years. So I would say have to give that one to Sherman. There have been some guys who have developed under sumlins watch. As cbates pointed out Dae Dae added size and became a real player. What he failed to mention was that Daeshon was a highly rated 4*, something our newest commit isn't. (Not dogging the kid, just point out a flaw in "I live in premium" arguement).
