25 college football coaches you want to party with
By Brad Weiss
16. Kevin Sumlin
Kevin Sumlin is one of the brightest coaches in all of college football, and some people say he’s one of the coolest around. In his five seasons as the head coach of Texas A&M, Sumlin has had his fair share of victories. He has gone 39-16 during his tenure with the school, leading the Aggies to four straight bowl games.
In his first season at Texas A&M, Sumlin led the Aggies to an 11-2 record. For his efforts, he was named the SEC Coach of the Year. His quarterback that season was Johnny Manziel, and nobody parties like Johnny Football. While I’m sure Sumlin was unhappy with his antics, Johnny was Johnny, and became the first freshman to win the Heisman Trophy.
Sumlin has come under fire for his handling of Manziel, and he has been a bit lax when it comes to discipline. Still, he is the kind of coach that people go to war for, and his program has produced some quality NFL players in his time.
Sumlin has seen a lot in his years of coaching, and could probably tell you a Manziel story or two. Partying with Sumlin would be great no matter the venue, even if it was over a few suds at a nice bar in Texas.
