College football fans, media troll Jimbo Fisher after another embarrassing loss
Texas A&M and Jimbo Fisher suffered another bad loss this weekend, falling to South Carolina, 30-24.
The Aggies are now 3-4 on the season have have lost three consecutive games. Since leaving Florida State to take the A&M job, Fisher has delivered at least 4 losses in all but one of his five seasons in College Station.
Fisher signed a 10-year contract with no buyout last September. That means if the Aggies want to fire him, they would owe 100% of the money remaining on the contract. The deal he signed was for 10 years and $95 million.
Texas A&M still has to face Ole Miss, Florida, LSU and Auburn later this season. It’s been a highly disappointing season for an Aggies program that brought in the No. 1 recruiting class in the country during the 2022 cycle.
After the loss to South Carolina, college football fans and media took aim at Fisher and his struggles in College Station. Here’s the best of that reaction:
what if opec isn’t cutting oil production to influence the election and instead is doing it so texas a&m can afford to fire jimbo fisher

Jimbo Fisher better have an immaculate track record of Christmas gifts to Jameis Winston because if it wasn’t for him that man would be flipping Baconators at your local West Virginia Wendy’s

Texas A&M is now 7-11 in SEC road games under Jimbo Fisher. And 4 of those 7 wins came in 2020 when there were no fans in the stands.

Jimbo Fisher just called timeouts on back-to-back plays
The Aggies rushed for a yard and then kicked a field goal following those timeouts

A reminder that included with Jimbo Fisher's $80 million buyout, most coaches have a clause that the buyout is reduced by the salary amount of your next job.
Jimbo's DOES NOT. Full payouts on everything.

For the 4th time in 5 seasons Jimbo Fisher has led Texas A&M to a 4 loss season.
This is who he is.

Jimbo Fisher will start this season 3-4 and still has games against Ole Miss, Florida, LSU and Auburn.
Gulp.

Tonight was two programs headed in opposite directions:
Shane Beamer's first four-game winning streak at South Carolina
Jimbo Fisher's first three-game losing streak at Texas A&M

Shame Beamer already has a better program than Jimbo Fisher at 29 percent the cost.

Jimbo Fisher is just STEALING millions and millions of dollars' worth of oil money from the state of Texas

I love how Jimbo Fisher kept repeating the importance of running the football during his halftime interview only for A&M to throw it on all seven of their plays to open the second half.

And now we'll wait all the way until November 26 to see whether this account posts about them this year or not https://t.co/Ct26DExX3V

Record through 55 games at Texas A&M:
Kevin Sumlin: 39-16
Jimbo Fisher: 37-18— Barrett Sallee 🇺🇸 (@BarrettSallee) October 23, 2022
I don't think it's hyperbole to say that if Texas A&M was not tied to Jimbo Fisher by the most ridiculous contract in the history of college football, this would be his final season.

Texas A&M has now lost its last four games against unranked FBS opponents, and Jimbo Fisher is 2-6 in the Aggies last eight against FBS competition.
