today, offer him a 6-year deal and end this before Arizona St. gets their search going.

I agree, but who is going to make the offer? Currie?  If you were offered a job by him, would you take it seriously after yesterdays event?

St this point I agree.  Just don’t bring Chavis with him.  Be ready to make a play for Kevin Steele when the season is over.  Get Sumlin’s offense paired with strong defense and you would have something.

I don't get the love for Sumlin. He just got fired for lack of performance. Plus he has had some really good talent over the years. If it was a business and he was a CEO and got fired for unsatisfactory performance, why would ypou want to hire him at your company. However, if it's him vs Schiano, no contest. Welcome aboard Kevin.

He was better than Butch over that stretch and so likely will be an upgrade.  He also no doubt learned from the experience.  Heck, Muschamp is doing better at USC junior than I expected, Sumlin might do the same at UT.  I think he will find it a bit harder to recruit in Knoxville, but by all accounts he's a good recruiter, and obviously has great ties to Texas which cant' hurt.

Still not my first choice, but in a rare moment we can agree he's significantly better than Schiano.
