It was back in 2023 when Texas A&M fans had enough of the Jimbo Fisher experiment. It seemed mutual with Fisher, too. He would constantly rant to his players on the sidelines, and it started to become a liability for the athletes.
Texas A&M would eventually be responsible for the biggest buyout in history, paying Fisher $77.6 million to leave College Station. It was a financial burden, but it was worth it. A&M fans will be getting to see a Fisher this weekend, but not Jimbo.
Samford named their team captains for the Texas A&M game, and the coaches decided to name Jimbo's son, Ethan, as a captain against Texas A&M.
