Official “Jimbo Fisher Has been fired watch thread”

[UTK]

Dude just pissed me off like he’s our coach or something. Idiot. Hope they can his ass.

 

[LouderVol]

Wat?

 

[GhostVol]

I understand....

Bad calls that don't give the team a chance infuriate me....

 

[Delmar]

Just saw his press conference. He is nothing more than a fast talking used car salesman. Talk about overrated.

They’d have to have a sure fire grand slam and I don’t see one that’s realistically available

 

[loservol]

If it wasn't for the large buyout, he probably be fired tomorrow afternoon. I just don't know what is going to happen this season in regards to Jimbo's coaching future. I need a good laugh right now, links to last Friday's midnight yell?

 

[stolitonic]

They're not going to can him. Didn't he just do a "new" 10 year contract a year or two ago to replace the original one?

At least in the Dallas area, what I have seen to far is that they are displeased but they know they are stuck at least for a few years.

Now, they do a total faceplant like Florida did last year and finish 5-7 or something then all bets are off. The Aggies will end up at 8-4 and while there will be some grumblings, his job is safe.

I do however think that if given the opportunity to do a Pruitt style ousting the Aggies would jump at the chance so Jimbo better be running a tight ship.

 

[DeepSpringsVol]

That post game press conference. He took offense to the suggestion that Bryce Young not playing made a difference. I get what he is saying he had injuries too. However if you cant acknowledge that having the defending Heisman qb on the field in place of a totally different style qb with minimal experience is a huge advantage then you are clueless. Sounded like hasnt finished the sour grapes he had since Saban made that comment about A&Ms recruiting class and he went ballistic.

Sumlin is better than jimbo.

No. Fisher has been in the playoffs twice and won a natty.

Lol

So you are bad at defending dumb arguments. Makes sense.

Jimbo has been absolutely terrible at A&M. For whatever reason you thought you had an argument to the contrary.

 

[THEONLYTENISEE]

He’s not going anywhere. TAMU is a very young team. They lose less then 5 players after the season.

 

[robbymoore94]

Got to hate it for Jimbo and Texas 8&4.

 

[allvol17]

Dude just pissed me off like he’s our coach or something. Idiot. Hope they can his ass.

I believe he has a guaranteed 95 million dollar contract. If they fire him at the end of the season, they still owe him 86 million dollars....

If I were a big time booster, no way would I give MY money to make that idiot as rich or richer than me.

Don't think he's going anywhere anytime soon. A&M made a poor decision and I hope they have to deal with it for the majority of the next decade.

Edit to add Jimbo's actual buyout:

• 2022: $85,950,000
• 2023: $76,800,000
• 2024: $67,550,000
• 2025: $58,200,000
• 2026: $48,750,000
• 2027: $39,200,000
• 2028: $29,550,000
• 2029: $19,800,000
• 2030: $9,950,000

Insane.

3X that will transfer out.

 

[Jeff Clark]

Jimbo i think will be head coach of A&M at least for the next two seasons who is going to pay a 95 million dollar buyout?

 

[THEONLYTENISEE]

3X that will transfer out.

Do they keep their NLI money?

I think Jimbo needs to let the OC run the offense. They continue to struggle with quarterback play.

 

[THEONLYTENISEE]

What’s the biggest coach buyout?

 

[feathersax]

Just saw his press conference. He is nothing more than a fast talking used car salesman. Talk about overrated.

I've noticed a definite acceleration in Jimbo's speech patterns the last couple of years. He's become the Cal Worthington of college football.

 

[THEONLYTENISEE]

So if you put TAMU in the East, they would be better than 8-4. Other than against Auburn, there’s no guaranteed wins in the west this year.

I think Texas A&M will go 7-5 and play Iowa State in the Liberty Bowl

I think the biggest flaw for Jimbo is his recruiting strategy. He needs to find kids that want to play for TAMU instead of just the NIL.
