Jimbo Fisher seeks return to college football coaching

Former Florida State head coach Jimbo Fisher is seeking a return to college football sidelines following his dismissal from Texas A&M in November 2023. Fisher, who led Florida State to a national championship in 2013, has remained active in the sport as an analyst for the ACC Network.

Reports indicate that Fisher is open to new opportunities and that salary expectations are unlikely to be a barrier to a new contract. His departure from Texas A&M resulted in a record buyout exceeding $77 million.

As the college football coaching landscape shifts, other coaches are also being monitored for potential movement. Candidates such as Arizona State’s Kenny Dillingham and Tennessee’s Josh Heupel are noted as figures who could potentially move if vacancies arise in major conferences.
