Neither, just yet. Just a question of timing. Do the FSU folks decide to end the charade, or do they just let it play out?

Highly doubt it. Jimbo wants to finish the season. If FSU wants him gone before the last game it'll cost them 40 M. Unless it just gets too toxic then I can't see it happening until after the game. I look forward to seeing FSU fans boo their own coach in their own stadium. Even if the players quit they'll still likely blow out ULM. That may be the worst defense in CFB.

Sunday most likely.

Jimbo plans to coach game. Even if FSU would prefer he not they’d have to fire him for him to not.

But.....he gone

The TAMU board of Regents meets today to discuss it.

Jimbo has a game scheduled with FSU on Saturday. I assume we are being respectful and waiting for him to finish the season.

Look for the news to drop on Sunday or Monday.

Fsu ain't going to be on the hook for that buyout by firing him prior to seasons end. Or firing him at all

Are you referring to the article below?
For the record, most info from the A&M side points to Sunday being “the day.”

quote:

The situation between Florida State and its current head coach, Jimbo Fisher, has reached a point where decisions have to be made, a source indicated to Noles247 on Wednesday evening.

Specifically, it was suggested that the University has grown tired of the unknown with regards to Fisher’s future status in Tallahassee and the dangling of an offer from Texas A&M over their head.

There is also a strong belief within the hierarchy at FSU that Fisher is likely to accept the Texas A&M offer at this time and depart for College Station after eight seasons as FSU’s head coach.

With that in mind, some form of an announcement from Florida State University about the future of their football head coaching position is being discussed for some point on Thursday.

Fisher, who at this time is set to speak with the media on Thursday evening, also potentially could comment on his status, something he has been unwilling to do over the past week.

Texas A&M, which has a regents meeting scheduled for Thursday, could also be prepared to make a more formal announcement regarding the future direction of its football program. The future of the football program is on the agenda for the meeting, including discussion of issues relating to the appointment of a new head football coach. More details on that meeting can be found here. It remains unknown if Fisher has formally agreed to accept the vacant head coaching position. To our knowledge, no formal agreement has been entered.

FSU has been preparing for this possibility over the past several days and that includes putting out feelers regarding potential future head coaches. As previously reported, Oregon’s Willie Taggart is currently considered the top option being discussed as a potential replacement if Fisher indeed accepts the offer from the Aggies.

FSU insiders say it might be today. A&M insiders still say Sunday, that Jimbo wants to coach on Saturday.

Contract will be approved today at 2:30 (Central).

The rest is up to FSU and Jimbo. He wants to coach Saturday's game to keep the bowl game streak going.

Will FSU allow it? Up to them. If they don't let him coach (fire him), FSU loses a ton of money.

Aggies waiting to see if FSU beats ULM.

FSU is only a four touchdown favorite. So there's a chance.
