I do give credit to Sumlin and his staff for building an offense that takes full advantage of Manziel's abilities.

IMO, that is what makes a good coach...utilizing what you have, not what you want to have....hence EJ failure vs Sumlin success (unfair comparison, but you should get the point)

Exactly my point...I would love to have him as the coach of my team any day of the week but at some point he has towin a championship to validate him being one of the top level coaches in the country.

A&M just moved to the 'best' conference and beat Bama and smoked OU....maybe I give him props early, but it is believing that makes winners....as a HC in today's game, IMO, it is all about belief....maybe Manziel tanks next year....if I am a top notch program, I roll the dice with SUM_HIM.

Like I said...I would love to have him as a coach of my team. My point was that I think he still has some things to prove before I would consider him the best or one of the best coaches in college football. There are several guys out there who have won more and won championships that I would put ahead of him at this point....but no doubt if he continues to have the success he had this season he is well on his way to doing some very special things at TAMU.
