Fisher ponders weather forecast

Fisher was asked if he has a contingency plan for upcoming practices if Bryan-College Station receives heavy rains from tropical storms Laura and Marco.

“I’ve been in the South a long time,” Fisher said. “That’s the first one I can remember in my time that there’s two of them in the Gulf at the same time.”

Fisher said he was worried that if they merged they would become more dangerous but read that actually would weaken them.

“Did y’all hear the same thing or am I off on that?” said Fisher, adding that he’s just rooting for the best outcome.

One reporter told Fisher even weathermen don’t know.

“Well, that’s probably right,” Fisher said. “Like, I say, weathermen, right? It could rain. It could be sunny. It may not. The wind could blow from the north, but it might blow from the south, other than that, we’ll check at noon tomorrow and tell ya’, OK? If football coaches could be like that, that’d be a pretty good job.”

“Sports writers are kind of like that,” the reporter added.

“Hey, I wouldn’t want to predict it either. That’s got to be a hard job,” Fisher said.
