So I'm sure by now you all heard about Sumlin's wife tweeting this letter sent to his house.
https://twitter.com/courshel/status/905942396831191040

So instead of being ashamed and showing support for this woman, nearly everyone associated with their 24/7 site decided to take a different path.

They think either she made it up or a fan of another school other than A&M sent it to make them look bad

The first comment is hidden to members but it says

Quote
She released that knowing it reflects poorly on A&m. How does it help your husband or the team?

Thats a low blow. Lets ignore for a moment where or whom created the letter. She knows how it would look.

So please explain to me why were accepting of that going out to the world ? Thats unacceptable. So what a regent criticized your husband. Ok. So you are still being paid by the school. Its bigger than your ego. You dont throw your school under the bus like that.

A lot of people have given a lot to your hisband’s program to have success. Oh. And made you rich along the way.

And furthermore why would you give a voice to ignorance by broadcasting it? And in the process possibly hurting the reputation of the folks who have supported your husband. At least that of course would be the knee jeek reaction.

So i have a lot of questions for charlene. It seemed very accusatory, didn’t it?

Some other comments
Quote
She did it to shift the attention away from her husband who was being roasted all offseason and all week for being a shitty coach.

Quote
No matter what else happens, no matter all his abundance of failures, A&M will be the racist school that fired their "@#&$*# head coach."
That is the card they'll play.

Quote
Have you considered that someone has a plan in place to justify his failures as a coach if and when his time is gone here? You know the excuse: toxic environment. So what if such an allegation is baseless. That's how this game is played to keep careers intact. I say that only because we are living in a world now in which everyone is a victim, even if he's paid millions and millions of dollars, and people are no longer responsible for their failures. We live in a time when it's always someone else's fault. Not saying this is the case here or making any predictions. Just saying instead that I'd not be surprised if this is how things play out. The victim card is very frequently played in 2017 America.

Quote
Best case scenario, she's a spiteful woman bitter about the criticism her husband is receiving.
Worst case scenario, she herself wrote the letter.
Bad look either way. A&M will be fine after Sumlin is gone, but potential future employers will be asking him about what his wife will do to reflect poorly on their program.
Sumlin, assuming he isn't in on the joke, SHOULD be livid at her. This doesn't help him longterm.

There are lots of these and no one stepping in to be a voice of reason.

Multiple threads!

Folks there is no way a member of the HCC sent that letter.
Yes, I know this is from the DOTO (department of the obvious)
It's been sent to stir up trouble for A&M.

Quote
There's about a 5% chance that letter is real.

Quote
I'm in the group that thinks it's fake.
But if it's not fake I can't imagine an Ag doing it. The sender (person who hand delivered it) has to know that doing that can only hurt A&M especially in this social media age. The person has to know that it will blow up and he/she will be found out.
Also when the media and public find out it was one person who sent it and not an entire university, fan base, state, and region of the US they are gunna be extremely disappointed. Might even blame Trump.

Of all the return addresses... Why the Houston country club is you are just going to deliver it yourself? (Sorry MIR I know that's not the point... Just looking at some of the details). V garbagey thing to do. Almost equally as bad that the game base had just decided it's a fake.

Being as how it is a hate crime or at the very least a federal offense, I hope the FBI will investigate. I doubt the idiot who did that covered their tracks well enough not to leave any evidence.

Not saying the letter is okay, because it's not, but the biggest arguments I've seen are that it has no postage markings in the top right by the stamp. Not sure if they have that in Texas or not :dunno:

Also, 247 trash (probably the trashiest of the a&m trash).

Not sure they cancel the stamps any more, but notice the bar code below the address.  It was legit delivered through the USPS.

Was just about to post that, it is pretty clear on the bottom of the envelope.

the letter (may or not be from a&m fan) absolutely pales in comparison to those disgusting bbs comments (definitely from a&m fans)

Randolph Duke's posts on the shag only reinforce what I always thought of those guys.

I mean, there is a reason their fan base overwhelmingly supported a move to the SEC.
