Okay, so I was digging around for some info on Kevin Sumlin’s contract, and let me tell you, it was a bit of a journey. Here’s how I went about it and what I found, hopefully, it’ll be useful for anyone else looking into this.
Started with a Simple Search
First, I fired up my good old search engine. I typed in “Kevin Sumlin contract” and hit enter. I got a bunch of results, but a lot of them were just news articles from when he was first hired or fired from different places. Nothing with the real juicy details I wanted.
Narrowed it Down
So, I got a little more specific. I tried searching for things like “Kevin Sumlin contract details” or “Kevin Sumlin contract buyout”. This helped a bit. I started to see some numbers, but they were often from different years and different schools (like Texas A&M, Arizona, etc.). It was still kind of a mess.
Looked for Specific Sources
I figured I needed to find some reliable sources. I looked for websites of major sports news outlets. I also checked out any official university athletic pages I could find, though those are often less revealing.
Checked out forums and communities
I try to find some reliable sources, sports communities, and some related forums. I hope some enthusiats can offer some useful clues.
Found Some Numbers… But with Caveats
- I saw mentions of his initial contract with Texas A&M, which was a big deal back then.
- I found some articles discussing the buyout clauses when he was let go from various places. Those are always interesting because they show how much a school has to pay a coach not to coach.
- I read about how contracts often have performance bonuses, incentives, and all sorts of clauses that can change the total amount.
It is a little hard to read the fully details for kevin’s contract. But I am gonna keep digging and update if get any luck.
