“Texas A&M is expected to fire football coach Jimbo Fisher on Sunday morning, sources confirmed to ESPN.”

Any word on Jumbo Elliot’s fate?

Fisher is 45-25 in six seasons at Texas A&M, and he just signed a new 10-year contract with $95 million guaranteed in 2021. That deal was given, in part, because of the potential at the time of Fisher leaving for LSU.

My theory is by year two, you know if you have a dud or not.

It’s not about the won-loss record, it’s what you see on the field.

Napier is a dud, and the evidence was there in Year Two that Fisher was not going to work out at A&M.

You don’t fire a coach without a replacement in mind.

The buyout for Penn State firing James Franklin would be easily covered by holding a number of alumni Toga Parties in Beaver Stadium and charging $100/head, cash bar, with an acoustic guitar smash at $200/pop. We can hire Otis. Easy peasy.

It’s good to see universities concentrating on what’s important.

Coaches are caring more about money than the game or the team. Too Much Money.

Why are promoting an anti-America company here? Take it to DailyKos.
