Jon Sumrall was once the leading candidate for the Auburn Tigers' head coaching job, but there was a last-minute U-turn that led to him accepting the Florida Gators' job. Now, some believe he's in an ideal situation.

Those accounts ranged from stories of overreaching boosters to allegations of staffers embedded within the program for the purpose of monitoring and reporting on the head coach.
