According to a report, Texas A&M is planning to fire head football coach Kevin Sumlin after Saturday night’s game vs. LSU.
Here is what has been reported:
Texas A&M coach Kevin Sumlin will be fired following the Aggies’ regular-season finale at LSU on Saturday night, multiple people with knowledge of the situation said.
Sumlin is expected to be dismissed in the day or days following the A&M game against the Tigers. The Aggies are a double-digit underdog to the Tigers, and an A&M victory wouldn’t save his job at this point, the sources said.
At his weekly news conference on Tuesday, a resolute Sumlin said he expects to be A&M’s coach next season.
“Why wouldn’t I?” he said in response to a question from the Chronicle about his future.
Told that the Chronicle had learned he wouldn’t be back next season, Sumlin responded, “I haven’t heard that.”
It seems like the SEC will have plenty of new faces on the sidelines next season.
