Texas A&M ‘could fire head coach Jimbo Fisher TODAY’ – less than 24 hours after 51-10 win over Mississippi State – with his buyout ‘at $75MILLION’

Texas A&M are expected to fire head coach Jimbo Fisher today, according to multiple reports on Sunday morning.

The news emerges less than 24 hours after the 51-10 win over Mississippi State on Saturday, taking their record for the season to 6-4 and making them bowl eligible.

But it clearly was not enough to silence the doubts around Fisher, 

According to Yahoo Sports the groundwork for Fisher’s dismissal was put in place on Thursday after a four hour meeting and more talks are scheduled for Sunday.

His buyout stands at a record $75million with eight years remaining on his contract. 

The 58-year-old signed a 10-year contract that is fully guaranteed and is reportedly paid around $9m a year.

Since taking over in 2018, Fisher’s record stands at 45-25 at the school.

Fisher arrived at Texas from Florida State and had won a nation title there back in 2013. 

Texas has two games remaining in the season against Abilene Christian and LSU.

Speaking after the Mississippi win, Fisher had no idea that his firing was coming and said that the vibe in his team was ‘tremendous’.

He added: ‘They keep playing, being resilient and coming back and get better. They are high quality character kids. 

‘Hopefully we’ll play another great next week and another great game in the last week.’
