Poor Kevin Sumlin sat in ESPN's Coaches Film Room, watching the national championship game with colleagues who still were gainfully employed.
Fired from Texas A&M after six seasons, Sumlin was the man without a logo (and a job).
You can stop feeling sorry for him now.
Less than a week later, he's replacing Rich Rodriguez at Arizona, and now has the financial windfall that will make even Nick Saban jealous in 2018.
As part of his buyout with Texas A&M, Sumlin will receive a lump sum payment of $10.4 million this month. And now he's signed a five-year, $14.
