Former Texas A&M and Florida State head football coach Jimbo Fisher has landed a new job.
Fisher, 59, was most recently the head coach at Texas A&M. He served the position from 2018 until 2023. Fisher stunned the college football world when he left Florida State for College Station. He led the Seminoles to a national championship in 2014, winning the BCS National Championship.
But Fisher disappointed at Texas A&M, failing to live up to the hype of his gigantic contract. He's been out of coaching for a couple of years now and it looks like it'll stay that way.
However, he has officially landed a new job.
On Tuesday morning, July 22, it was announced that Fisher had officially landed a new job.
He has been hired as a college football analyst by ESPN. He is joining the ACC Network as a weekly analyst.
"Jimbo Fisher is joining the ACC Network as a college football analyst, the network announced Tuesday," ESPN announced.
"Fisher, who led Florida State to the 2013 national title, will appear weekly on the ACC Huddle on Saturdays."
Fisher is excited for the opportunity. We've seen several coaches get into media work after getting fired, only to later return to coaching, following their performance on TV.
"I'm looking forward to joining ACC Network and the Huddle team this season," Fisher said in a statement. "I've always had tremendous respect for this conference, and I'm looking forward to breaking down the action each week with such a talented group."
ESPN had more details on his show:
The ACC Huddle show will travel to the marquee ACC football game each weekend this season and will air Saturdays from 10 a.m. to noon. Week 1 of ACC Huddle will be at Clemson, which hosts LSU on Aug. 30.
Congrats, Jimbo.
