Member of the Aggie Board of Regents has called for Sumlin's dismissal via Facebook.

I'm sure I may be criticized for this post but I honestly don't care. I've been on the Board of Regents for the A&M System for almost seven years. During that time, I've not once commented on Kevin Sumlin and his performance during his tenure at our school. I never said a word when he and his agent manipulated a much bigger and longer contract. I said nothing about his arrogance and his mishandling of multiple player controversies. I said nothing when we had multiple awesome recruiting classes, only to see key players leave our school or underperform. But tonight I am very disappointed and I have to say this. Kevin Sumlin was out-coached tonight, which isn't new. He recruits well, but can't coach the big games, or the close games. Our players were better tonight. Our players were more talented tonight. But our coaches were dominated on national TV, yet again. I'm only one vote on the Board of Regents but when the time comes my vote will be that Kevin Sumlin needs to GO. In my view he should go now. We owe it to our school and our players. We can do better.

I don't know why he isn't already fired. You could fire him after this game and everyone would be like "yeah well that makes sense." You wait any longer and you leave the opening for media hand wringing over the termination.

I don't believe he'll be fired until the end of the season. I think it'll be done with an air of class, unspoken bbutthe ccountdown has begin.

Could be crazy wrong, I dunno.

I didn't go to bed, but I did watch a movie as the game was "boring" (hooray, SEC and all that). I should've known Sumlin would find a way to blow it. Pathetic. Embarrassing. Fire that man! But only if you want aTm to be a decent team.

Guess I shouldn't have gone to bed early.

Hahaha, yeah, we early to bed and early to rise folks are waking up and wondering how that 38-10 beatdown at halftime ended up with people talking about Sumlin being fired. However, I would not have changed my nice sleep just to watch what was apparently a train wreck for A&M in the second half. I am only disappointed that I picked A&M to win and they lost.

I went to TexAgs and didn't bother opening anything. Just the titles were hilarious.

Joel Osteen just sent Sumlin a text this morning: "Thanks for taking the heat off. I'll send you an autographed copy of one of my books...."
