I can admit it: I was a Summrall fan. Thought he was an excellent hire for UF and that he'd do big things for them (at least by recent standards for that program), but idk man, after the SEC Media Day performance ... I must re-evaluate. Big time fake tough guy vibes.

He may have instantly vaulted into my all time Top 3 Hated Gator Coaches. And he hasn't even coached a game for them yet.

Just an elite demonstration of Gator/SEC smugness he put on display. Makes me think we won't be playing them for another 10 years+. Mark it down: He will duck us for as long as he can. Only way they schedule us while he is there is if their alumni booster base force the issue.

Sumrall is the worst type of fake tough guy.

There are a few different type of fake tough guys. You have the Manny Diaz and Fran Brown type of fake tough guys. They say stuff sometimes and act weird thinking it makes them look strong (like Fran Brown not showering after games). Norvell falls into this category as well. In general, they are nice guys and respectful to people, they just act goofy sometimes to look tough.

Then you have the John Sumrall fake tough guys. They talk about being tough 24/7. That’s literally all they talk and think about. They also do goofy stuff to make them look tough. Unlike the Manny Diaz type tough guy, they are rude to people they perceive to be weak. They have to show this dominance over someone weaker, thinking it makes them look like a bad a$$. They would never speak that way or act that way to a strong person. They are somewhat of a bully.

Where as guys like Saban, Belichick, Parcells, Harbaugh, Mario, etc…treat everybody the same, doesn’t matter who you are or your level, guys like Sumrall only go after weak people.

Totally agree. These are the worst kind of fake tough guys - virtually 100% are cowardly backstabbing weasels, that end up backtracking when someone they perceive, who is not weaker, stands up to them.

Look at what he did on social media the day after. He saw that he was getting pretty negative reactions, and he responds to that one media person saying he was “joking“. That’s a perfect example.

He saw that people with equal or greater “strength” to him in the media world, that is social media strength, were clapping back, so he backtracks like Michael Jackson moonwalking across the stage. A lot of big talk from Twinblade G5 Jonny, and he would do the same in a physical confrontation as well.

If Sumrall was joking, he would have said so after his "no-nonsense, all-business" display to a bunch of media schmucks. Yet he didn't.

Then when he got called out on social media by a former D1 head coach and ESPN talking head, Sumrall took the "I was joking" safety net Crean offered.

Complete bull****. "The SEC meat grinder"...so the solution is...give all 12 CFP slots to the SEC so they can go through another 4 weeks of "the SEC meat grinder" to crown a blood-soaked SEC team as the national champion? More like "the SEC human centipede".

From my post in the "SEC-SEC-SEC" thread:



2025 SEC teams in the CFP

3. UGa
6. Ole Miss
7. aTm
8. Oklahoma
9. Alabama

Four of those five teams lost the VERY FIRST GAME they played against a non-SEC team.

The ONLY team that beat any non-SEC teams was Ole Miss. You know, the school that "should have" been out of gas, what with its head coach leaving, and the constant uncertainty as to who would be on the sidelines coaching each week.

Two of those five teams played non-SEC teams in the final regular-season weekend. Another one played Auburn in the final weekend, and another played Mississippi State. Auburn and MSU were 2 of the 4 worst teams in the SEC, each having only ONE win in the SEC on the year.

Four of those five teams had THREE WEEKS to recover from that brutal SEC season before playing their first CFP games.

I would challenge anyone to list the significant injuries for any of those five teams which led to "CFP-time" SEC teams being weaker than "regular-season" SEC teams.

And yet over and over and over and over and over again, we are led to believe that the SEC, somehow, has it HURDER than any other conference, at least when it comes to translating their inherent greatness into, you know, ACTUAL CFP WINS.

Look, I have an ideal solution for all of this. If F$U, when they lost their QB in 2023, was sooooooo much worse as a CFP team than they had been during the regular season, then why can't we apply the same logic to the SEC?

Since the big, bad SEC is soooooo beat up after suuuuuuuch a challenging regular season that they "just aren't themselves any longer", then we should all try to reflect that reality by lowering the CFP rankings of all the poor, poor bruised SEC teams.

So let's re-rank 2025 for CFP purposes.

3. UGa - hey, they won the SEC championship.
6. Miami - hey, we pretty much proved that we were ranked too low, correct?
7. Notre Dame - they only lost to the #6 team
8. BYU - 11 wins and no "hurd schedule" whining
9. Utah - 10 wins and also no whining
10. UVa - I thought we weren't punishing teams that lost the conference championship, right?
11. Tulane - them's the rules
12. James Madison - ditto

This act of kindness will allow four SEC-SEC-SEC teams to slooooowly recover from their brutal 2025 conference schedule in time for their brutal 2026 conference schedule. And after all, they are being richly compensated by ESPN for all of that amazing regular-season content that is just soooooo much better than anyone else's content.

Honestly, would the CFP have turned out any differently with those teams above? I mean, I guess we would have lost a couple of weeks of hand-wringing about whether Ole **** could survive without Lane Train, but other than that, would anyone else have noticed a near-complete-absence of SEC schools?

I think not.

Be kind. Let the SEC heal. Keep them out of the CFP.

There are literally SEC teams that haven't played each other in years. It's always mind-boggling how they are given credit for being in the same conference, when they really aren't in the same league
 
Haha and there goes the tough guy facade ... didn't even have to wait for the L's.

Also wifey 100 had that skirt hitched up messing with some random in a bathroom by the looks.
