SHORTLY AFTER TEXAS A&M athletic director Ross Bjork fired Jimbo Fisher, he described what the Aggies are seeking in a replacement. They're looking for a coach who's open to change, adaptable, organized, easy to work with, has a creative offense and is more of a CEO type than someone who's in the film room all night.
It sounded like he was describing the opposite of Fisher.
Fisher was fired Sunday morning late in his sixth season at Texas A&M with more than $76 million remaining on his fully guaranteed contract. He was undone by an offense -- his offense -- that didn't keep up with the trends in college football, ranking 101st nationally in scoring during a disastrous 5-7 season in 2022.
