Mike Sherman had a worse record at A&M (25-25) than Fran (32-28) and a much worse record than Sumlin (51-26) despite the fact that Sumlin coached in a much tougher conference.
Following his termination, Sherman coached at Nauset Regional High School, taking over a squad that had gone 9-13 the previous two years. He went 4-18.
Next, he coached the Montreal Alouettes to a 5-13 record and was dismissed. His offensive coordinator took over as head coach the next year and led them to a much improved 10-8 record.
By every metric, Mike Sherman is a terrible head coach. He can't coach at the college, high school, or CFL level. He shows up, teams get worse than they've been. He leaves, teams get better. Please stop propping him up as a good coach just because you thought he was a nice man.
