Texas A&M reportedly plans to fire head coach Jimbo Fisher after another year of missing out on the College Football Playoff and finishing well below expectations.

The Aggies moved to 6-4 overall on the season and 4-3 against SEC opponents with a 51-10 victory over Mississippi State on Saturday. Multiple reports indicated on Sunday that school officials were planning to meet with Fisher to tell him their decision.

TexasAgs.com first reported the Fisher decision. The school didn’t immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment.

Fisher took over the head coaching job in 2018 after eight years at Florida State, which yielded the school a national championship. He came in with big expectations as his tenure started with a 9-4 record and a Gator Bowl win.
