So for a program who claims they have surpassed Texas even though they have no national championships, they had to hire an #3 assistant coach instead of a proven sitting P4 head coach?

 

They sure pivoted hard from GETTING OCONNOR/VITELLO/HEEFNER/SKIP to this. None of those guys wanted to go to aggy, work for Alberts or do the stupid bullshit aggy traditions

Paid a lot of money to keep this years team mostly together probably but long term….  We will see.  

[Beau Vine 54258]

I'm really interested to see if Reveille and Earley have a natural bond and if Earley willingly reaches out. Reveille is a huge part of our university and our athletics programs so if she has an instant affinity for Coach Earley, I think that will speak volumes to our recruits. If anyone could, please take and post video of their initial encounter. Any still shots of Coach Earley petting Rev would also be appreciated - would prefer if taken from side so I can see as much as possible of both their faces.

The thing about texags narratives is that they often don't pan out.  We'll see how many guys actually stick around.

Going to be funny when all the studs still transfer out.

That little shit's bunting days are over.

Trev was really impressed in the interview when Earley said he would take less money per year than Schloss and could also serve as his own hitting coach.

Objectively hilarious that this photo exists.

Only way for old Trev to try to save face... "See aggy, we stole coach from Sips" 😋

 

[ClubWhatever 12151]

I finally bothered to look up this guys resume.  They hired a guy with 7 years total coaching experience all as a hitting coach.  Holy shit.  I mean, he might work out.

[Hank Kingsley 20982]

Word out of Belmont is they are now looking at cancelling SEC party today. Apparently Pit Bull is furious as his sound guy and dancers "won't shut the fuck up" about the Earley hire.

Longley was one of our best assistants. This is good for them but I don’t know how me mixes in with a first year head coach though. Interested in who that power 5 coach is.

So hiring a former P5 Head Coach as your assistant -- if Early struggles does this new assistant then become aggy Head Coach  🤔

IDK

Compare his resume with Tony Vitello's. I think he was just a hitting coach before Tennessee hired him, but I'm not curious enough to look it up. All I know is we hired the best HC in TCU and A&M's history.

[Chuckie Finster 22702]

 

Given the theme of their other two announced hired, that P5 head coach is definitely David Pierce.

[Hookem2147 21343]

Pretty sure the P5 coach being hyped up as coming on as an assistant is Jason Kelly at Washington. Was the pitching coach at ASU with Earley and spent a year at LSU before getting the head gig at Washington.

I assume they are all going to drop the burner phone and had a contract signed after geogua game nonsense now?  I mean I don't think they can spin it was just schloss that knew he was leaving and no one else on the staff. 

[Viper 12109]

We've got ourselves a 2% here

Vitello had 14 yrs of power 5 coaching experience before the Tenn job

So, aggy panicked.

Classic.

[Frank Drebin 5648]

Dumb hire.

Well they were about to watch pretty much the whole team walk out the barn door to the portal so if this salvages a couple guys they prob see it as worth it...

Lmao. Very high risk. Real talk, Pierce prolly woulda been the safer hire

Hearing that Trev was at Oilcan Harry's for 12 hours yesterday waiting for the chance to speak with Earley in person. He had to be pulled out of there late last night as his "phone died" and he didn't realize Earley was waiting for him in CS.

Earley has 7 years experience, so this hire is TWICE as good as if we hired Vitello!  Whoop!

He has been kind of a disaster as a head coach, so I could see that happening.  

[billfromlaketravis 11519]

Looch goes on a 30 minute rant about how they have make a home run hire on Wednesday.

Brauny goes on a diatribe about how big time coaches have already reached out to him about the job. Also on Wednesday.

On Sunday they hire Schloss’ assistant coach. Never change TexAgs/aggy. 

[TrashMaster G 17567]

So, we hired their head coach and they turned around and hired one of our assistants. 

Sick burn. 

They are now on the phone, trying to convince the SEC Network to break into their UT Day coverage this afternoon to show their press conference, I'm sure. That way they can spin it as a win over us in the news cycle.

And what the hell is it them with hiring former aggy assistants?  Buzz, Melk, and now Earley all brought back to Collieville. 

At least Buzz had some success as a head coach, Melk a couple years running a program.  Earley just a couple years under a winner.

Is this where we are supposed to send CJ and Blake to Earley’s introductory press conference to ask the hard hitting questions

We should applaud aggy for their P5 head coaching jobs program.
