Jimmy Sexton
I did not realize that Jimmy Sexton was Chizik's agent until someone told me this morning.
This guys client list has a lot of coaches that move around quite a bit...some pretty good coaches but guys that are always looking around. Saban, Tuberville, Jimbo Fisher, Will Muschamp, Butch Davis, Steve Spurrier, Houston Nutt, Kiffin (Monte and Lane), and Parcells to name some that are in his stable. I think a couple of guys mentioned on here as possible candidates for our new opening are also with him...Kevin Sumlin and Brian Schottenheimer.
Make no mistake...Sexton always has his feelers out for his guys. There is a reason why certain guys' names are always being brought up for job openings and it is because a guy like Sexton is always putting his clients names out there to both the press and anyone hiring for a decent job.
Personally, I would prefer we hire a guy that uses a different agent. Surprising as it might seem, the agent a HC is using in today's world has a big impact on what is going on relative to the coaching carousel.
