Jimbo 100% gets fired if he gets 8 and 7 wins the next 2 regular seasons
This. Yes it's a ton of money, but yall underestimate how bad the BMAs want to win. They didnt sink money into a new stadium, new practice facilities, being on the forefront of NIL deals, coaching salaries, etc. to keep going 8-4. As cringy as it was (and definitely shouldnt have happend) to give fisher the blank natty trophy, there are certain expectations despite the rant claiming otherwise that we are happy with 8-4 seasons.
If we dont at least play for a conference championship in the next couple of seasons, I'd be willing to bet Fisher is gone, whatever the buyout is.
To answer RC's question, success is 9+ wins, this year. Next has got to be double digits and again, playing for a conference title soon.
Imploding is 7 or less wins. So really not much room between "success" and "imploding", but it is what it is. I can see where 8-4 buys Jimbo another year, but it wont be touted as a "success". Multiple 7 or 8 win years and I doubt he's still here. Interest in the program will be cratering and it's probably more of a liability to keep him around than pay the buyout and move on.

The window is shrinking for Fisher. Freeze is now at Auburn, and Saban is still at Bama. On the plus side, Leach is no longer a thorn in the side of A&M. The West is insanely competitive and we need an offense that can put points on the board.
It's just that simple. If we don't score at least 35-40 pts a game, we are doomed to 8-4 or worse ...

That's where we are. There's not much margin for error. The only excuses left after this past year were team youth/change needed at playcaller. Even with all of that, most games were within a score in the 4th quarter. The only way Fisher stays is if we go up from here. Plateauing at 8 wins is one more year (maybe). Another 5-loss debacle, idc how close the games are, that's his arse.
