Tulane in the CFP with Sumrall

[blueheretic]

So....whose wrong?

Sumrall and Tulane are playing it out through the CFP.

Ole Miss decided to implode their team and push Kiffin out the door.

I think Ole Miss did themselves a disservice. It was stupid to not allow Kiffin to coach through the CFP.

Stupid and petty.

Although I'm not a Lane Kiffin fan, I agree that Ole Miss cut their nose off to spite their face.

2 completely different situations imo. Kiffin is going to a rival and by all indications, is not the best person on a personal level to work with. Sumrall is taking a huge step up to UF and by all indications is a great person who probably did it all right and worked well with his AD.

I don't think either is wrong, I just think they are different situations. Like when Scott Frost took the Nebraska job and stayed at UCF to finish out their season. I would say it's pretty normal for coaches of lesser programs who are playing in a meaningful bowl game to stay with the team if wanted and any coach leaving for a comparable job or rivalry is shown the door.

I think it's cutting off one's nose to spite one's face.

But there's always room for disagreement. lol
