Jimbo Fisher issues statement after postgame fight involving his nephew

The Texas A&M Aggies and LSU Tigers played a hard-fought, seven-overtime game on Saturday, with the Aggies earning the victory.

However, after the game, the celebration was marred by a scuffle that broke out involving LSU staffers Steve Kragthorpe and Kevin Faulk and A&M coach Jimbo Fisher’s nephew, Cole Fisher.

On Monday night, A&M released a statement on the matter. In it, Jimbo Fisher says A&M has addressed the matter internally:

“We have continued to look into an unfortunate postgame incident following a hard-fought, emotional game against LSU at Kyle Field on Saturday,” the statement reads. “As a part of that review, I, along with Texas A&M administration, LSU and the SEC office, have been examining video of the incident as well as statements from relevant parties. I want to assure everyone that the matter has been addressed internally with my staff members, and we will continue to demand that our program conduct itself in a manner that meets the values and expectations of this great university. We look forward to continuing our season at a bowl destination.”

Whether or not the punishment for parties involved is ever made public remains to be seen, but it appears the case is closed in A&M’s eyes for now.
