Last week Texas A&M coach Kevin Sumlin fired his pool boy on Twitter. We now know this for a fact. A most important fact at that.
You see, Sumlin's pool boy, Rustin McFarland, made the mistake of sharing TOP SECRET Texas A&M information on Twitter. He tweeted "just cleaned Sumlin's pool. Saw him on the phone, hopefully with our new DC!"
Texas A&M had fired Mark Snyder after the Aggies defense played so well this season that the players might want to consider starting a pool-cleaning business instead. Sumlin then unleashed this from his own Twitter account.
You just lost your job!RT“@mcfarlandrk8: Just cleaned Sumlin's pool. Saw him on the phone, hopefully with our new DC!”

At first you didn't know if Sumlin was joking, or if he was being serious. Now we know he meant it.
Kevin Sumlin says on @MikeAndMike that he was on the phone with John Chavis and he did actually fire his pool boy.

Well, I guess if the whole pool-cleaning career doesn't work out, McFarland can start spying on coaches while they're on the phone and break some news instead.
