Texas A&M coach Jimbo Fisher's first public comments about new coordinator Bobby Petrino provide a glimpse into one of the most fascinating experiments in college football: the union of Fisher and Petrino and the direction of the Texas A&M offense. Fisher's decision to make a coordinator change and relinquish play-calling duties wasn't made lightly. For the entirety of his head coaching career, Fisher has called his offense's plays.
