Florida Coach Jon Sumrall Says He Carried a Glock While Earning $200 a Month

Jon Sumrall said his early coaching career included living in "the slums" of San Diego and carrying a Glock while working for about $200 a month.
The first-year Florida coach described those conditions in a recent interview as part of the sacrifices he made to break into college football.
Sumrall is now reportedly making close to $8 million at Florida, a sharp contrast with the low-paid assistant jobs he said he took at the start.
The account adds to Sumrall's hard-edged public image, which has included saying he skipped an anniversary trip to study film and joking he would jump off Florida's stadium if the Gators missed a bowl.

Will Sumrall's extreme approach attract elite talent or push players away in the modern transfer portal era?
