BRYAN-COLLEGE STATION, Texas – Texas A&M Director of Athletics, Ross Bjork, announces change in Aggie football leadership, effective immediately.
"After very careful analysis of all the components related to Texas A&M football, I recommended to President Welsh and then Chancellor Sharp that a change in the leadership of the program was necessary in order for Aggie football to reach our full potential and they accepted my decision. We appreciate Coach Fisher's time here at Texas A&M and we wish him the best in his future endeavors."
Statement from Texas A&M University President General (Ret.) Mark A. Welsh III:
The decision to part ways with Coach Fisher is the result of a thorough evaluation of the football program's performance, and what's in the best interest of the overall program and Texas A&M University.
Athletic Director Ross Bjork has my full support as he begins a national search for a new head coach. I am confident he will find a great coach and leader with a commitment to the values that drive Texas A&M.
I want to thank our student athletes for their dedication, hard work and the inspiration they give me and all Aggie fans each and every week.
I would also like to thank Coach Fisher for his years of service and commitment to his players, coaches and this university. I wish him the very best as he begins his next chapter.
A special thanks to Coach Elijah Robinson for stepping up to lead the charge for Aggie football.
