Texas A&M informed Jimbo Fisher on Sunday morning that he has been fired as the Aggies’ coach, sources told ESPN.

Fisher will be paid the remaining $76 million on his deal, according to sources, a record amount for a buyout for a head coach. That figure more than doubles the highest known buyout ever paid to a fired college head coach.

Associate head coach Elijah Robinson is expected to serve as the Aggies’ interim coach, sources said.
