Wish him and his family all the best in their future, he represented the program and university very well.
Word on the street is Jimbo
Yeah, I've heard Jimbo as well. Would be a great hire.

Sources w/knowledge of TAMU search process tell me Jimbo-Fisher has a deal to be next Head Coach @AggieFootball .Fisher will coach 1 final game at FSU but not Bowl game should they become eligible. I'm told his TAMU contract will be at least 5 yrs/7.5 million per year. @KPRC2
My first reaction to the Jimbo news was "why" but in truth its a solid move for him.

Not bad if they can pull it off. Might Tech now cut Kingsbury loose and grab Sumlin? Seems like that would be a really smooth transition.
Can confirm #Aggies expected to announce Jimbo Fisher as it's next head coach. Press conference scheduled for 10AM tomorrow https://t.co/hD7LfAmm1x

Billy Liucci of TexAgs.com reported earlier Sunday that Arizona State might be a good landing spot for him if he decides to jump back in to the fray immediately. Arizona State fired Todd Graham Sunday.
Arizona State would be a good fit for Sumlin. A&M better not screw up on his replacement, with three other jobs open in the West there's a high risk of falling back in the pecking order if you make the wrong hire while the others get a good one.
$10.4mm due to Sumlin in 60 days...

With no offset right? Meaning, if he coaches Arizona St next year, the Arizona St salary cannot be used to reduce the A&M buyout.

What a deal. Quite frankly, he deserves it. Since the Great Depression, only one A&M coach has a better career record than Sumlin at 67%. And that's Slocum at 72%. They ran him off too.
