Texas A&M's players took to Twitter when their head coach, Kevin Sumlin, was fired on Sunday afternoon.

Coach Sumlin gave me an opportunity that not many colleges did. He gave me an opportunity to make my dream come true of playing college football at the highest level. The lessons I learned and the experiences I've had with Coach will last a lifetime. #ThankYouCoach
