Billy Lucci reporting Jimbo out at A&M …….

While the fact that Fisher’s contract is 100% guaranteed is far from A&M-friendly, the way the buyout works would allow the Aggies more flexibility than at first glance. Only 20% of the buyout is due within 60 days of termination, with the remaining balance paid out annually through 2031. That means that if he was fired after this season, A&M would only owe Fisher $19.2 million immediately. They would then pay him $7.2 million annually for the next eight seasons.

If they can spend $76M to fire a coach, they have money to spend on their croots.

Plus what they have to pay his staff, and what they’ll have to pay the new hire and his staff. Any way you slice it, it’s a lot of money.

HUGE for LSU.

Go get those guys now!

Does this hurt or help our cause to flip aTm recruits?

They fired Jimbo today because a lot of big time recruits were in town so they can meet with the money people this morning

Abilene Christian was on the docket next weekend

Sonny says that Miller is slipping away from LSU. Let’s remember we are going to have some changes to the staff as well.

I don’t like this.

The worst thing that could happen is A&M making a hire that gets recruits excited again.

With Jimbo at the helm, we knew we were getting incompetency and a guy that would poorly coach elite talent.

I don’t want someone coming in there that knows what they’re doing.
