WATCH: Closed captioning has a heck of a time trying to keep up with fast-talking Jimbo Fisher

Texas A&M reporters are about to learn what Florida State reporters have known for a long time — Jimbo Fisher is one of the fastest talkers you’ll ever meet.
That makes life difficult for those who have to transcribe his words, and even more difficult for those who have to try to do it live.
As you can see in the video below, shared by @tole_cover on Twitter, when Fisher joined the broadcast booth during Friday’s Belk Bowl, the closed captioning operator had a heck of a time trying to keep up with Fisher’s comments:

The Aggies will have to make sure they’re paying attention when their new coach is talking in the future, as you need to be completely focused to have a chance to understand what Fisher is saying.
Future closed captioning operators will be lucky to do as good of a job as this one did on Friday afternoon.
