One of the more tired cliches in college football (and there are many!) is everyone getting lathered up in a clamor and gargling out the phrase “dreaded vote of confidence” every time a school’s Athletic Director or President tosses out the word in a soundbyte in relation to his head coach.
Y’all, Kevin Sumlin has been here before. Multiple times. Those other two “dreaded votes of confidence” were just in January of last year. Hell, we haven’t seen someone get this many more votes than their colleagues and still lose in November since Hillary ran for President.
