One thing in ATM's favor with this hire - it does give them a chance at a NC next year by keeping the roster together.

I'm skeptical how much they will keep their roster together.  They probably would have had guys poached away had Schloss stayed.  We shall see.

One thing in ATM's favor with this hire - it does give them a chance at a NC next year by keeping the roster together. From that standpoint, it's not a terrible dice roll which they can bail out of within a couple years. But beyond next year, I'd be disappointed if I were an ATM fan.

Has a rookie head coach ever won the CWS?

Has there been a rookie head coach that has coached at both Texas and aggy?

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. 

Home run?  More like a sac bunt …

I hate to admit that Aggies were right. The college sports media is talking all about them on our SEC party day. Fuck.

Didn't he meet with the team already?  There are screenshots and recordings of him drawing maps to Olsen field on the back of burner-napkins.  I've seen screenshots.  Well, I've heard someone has screenshots.   er, there might be screenshots.  there was a phone with a screen.    Someone said there was a screen door on Early's childhood home.

Guys, if you could stop downplaying that Earley was our fan favorite, that would be great.  They're onto us.

This guy has had a tough run as head coach of Washington, but I hear he has some good baseball knowledge and has been a round baseball for much of his life. 

No spelling error.

If the rumor that Tulo is staying is true, that will be a chef's kiss.

Yes, it's a band-aid attempt to keep their existing roster together since they struck out on experienced HCs. I doubt Weiner will abandon Schloss or that aggy will pay him more than UT for the same role. But, I guess we'll see.

Earley is high risk, but cost-effective for aggy.

Earley ironically becomes a fan favorite by exiting stage right and creates a spot for Tulo. From inexperienced volunteer coach to Head Coach in a week: Earley gets the worm.

texaggy is very upset that Weiner is smiling bigly in this picture, so he has been identified as a traitor not to be welcomed back in Teh Stashun:

If they hire Earley I wonder if Schloss looks at Tulo for that assistant position? I think he was let go because Schloss was bringing in his own Director of Player Development but would he be open to Tulo in another role? 

I’m not saying I’m Tulo. But I’m also not not saying I’m Tulo.

Situation played out like Schloss and Tulo had an understanding.

They understood aggy would probably strike out on an experienced HC and Earley would readily accept the job and stay put in Collie Station.

I mean, stealing aggy’s entire staff was funny but I’m fairly certain that finding a spot for Tulo on Schloss’s staff was the dream scenario for every Longhorn fan when the rumors started.

Yes and aggy ending up with a rookie HC they trashed days ago just to keep the roster intact AND we keep Tulo, Cain and Weiner is the better scenario

Well, it could have been better had Texas kept both Earley and Tulo, and aggy hired Rodney Terry as their baseball corch.

Based on my experience as a d1 paid assistant coach as compared to Earley, I think I’ll reach out to the UW AD and express my interest in the hc job if that guy does head to aggy.
