The cushiest job in the world isn’t actually a job at all – it’s that of a fired college football coach.
College athletics are a rigorous and cutthroat environment. What better way to relax after that than taking a luxurious sabbatical with millions of dollars in severance pay?
Just ask former Texas A&M head coach Jimbo Fisher, who was paid a record sum of $76 million to leave College Station. He’s spent the last year in the mountains back in his home state of West Virginia, hunting and watching football as a fan. There’s a lot of speculation about what Fisher’s next job will be, but what’s the rush?
