Texas A&M football coach Jimbo Fisher is on the hot seat, and it sounds like his massive contract won't save him from another disappointing season.  Two years after Jimbo Fisher signed a 10-year, $95 million contract to remain with the Texas A&M football program, the Aggies might be on the verge of looking for a new head coach.

Fisher's job with Texas A&M is absolutely in jeopardy, according to FOX's Bruce Feldman. If Fisher is fired at the end of the 2023 season, he'll be owed $77 million. A source told Feldman that Texas A&M is willing to pay the $77 million buyout if it feels it needs to find a new head coach.

Miami defeated Texas A&M 48-33 in Week 2 for yet another inexplicable loss by the Aggies. Texas A&M is 1-7 in its last eight games against schools from a Power 5 conference. The Aggies went 5-7 last year, failing to play in a bowl game for the first time since Fisher became the Texas A&M football coach for the 2018 season.
