Jim Schlossnagle
Head Coach
Jim Schlossnagle took over the Texas A&M baseball program in June 2021, coming to Aggieland after 17 years as the head coach at TCU. In 19 seasons as a head coach, Schlossnagle has compiled an 811-393 (.674) record and been to the College World Series five times. Prior to his arrival in Fort Worth in 2004, TCU had never been to the CWS. Schlossnagle transformed TCU into a perennial national power, winning 734 games, claiming 18 conference championships, appearing in 15 NCAA Tournaments, and advancing to Omaha five times, including four straight trips from 2014-17. Before TCU, Schlossnagle served as UNLV's head coach from 2002-03, putting together a 37-23 record and taking the Rebels to the Tempe Regional final in 2003. His coaching career began as an assistant coach for his alma mater Elon College from 1990-92 before he spent a year at Clemson as the Tigers' pitching coach in 1993. Schlossnagle has twice been honored as the nation's top coach in 2010 & 2016 and served as USA Baseball's Collegiate National Team head coach in 2013.
Nolan Cain
Associate Head Coach
Texas A&M baseball added former LSU player and assistant coach Nolan Cain to the staff in June of 2021. Cain arrives in the Brazos Valley after eight seasons on former head coach Paul Maineri’s LSU staff, including five seasons as assistant coach and recruiting coordinator. He also worked one season as the Tigers’ volunteer coach and two seasons as coordinator of operations. Cain is nationally recognized as one of the top recruiters in the nation. Three of his last four recruiting classes at LSU were ranked in the top 5, including a No. 2 rating by Baseball America for his 2020 class. His 2018 recruiting class earned the top spot from Baseball America and Collegiate Baseball. The 2017 class was ranked No. 5 by Collegiate Baseball.
Michael Earley
Assistant Coach
Earley arrives in the Brazos Valley after five seasons at Arizona State, including four seasons as the hitting coach on Tracy Smith’s staff. Earley has built a reputation for developing hitters with his most notable work being the rise of Spencer Torkelson to the No. 1 overall draft pick in the 2020 MLB Draft. Undrafted out of high school, Torkelson was selected by the Detroit Tigers. He was the first third baseman to be selected first overall since Pat Burrell in 1998 and just the fifth third baseman to be selected first overall in MLB Draft history. It marked the first time a college position player went from being undrafted out of high school to the No. 1 overall pick since Nebraska outfielder Darin Erstad in 1995.
Max Weiner
Assistant Coach
Texas A&M head baseball coach Jim Schlossnagle announced the hiring of Max Weiner in July as an assistant coach for the upcoming 2024 season.
Weiner will oversee the Aggie pitching staff and comes to Aggieland from the Seattle Mariners where he has served as the organization’s pitching coordinator since December of 2018.
The Mariners have been amid a pitching renaissance since bringing Weiner into the fold ahead of the 2019 season after he held a position for one year as the minor league pitching coordinator for the Cleveland Guardians organization.
In the four years since his hire, Seattle has had eight pitchers ranked as Top 100 prospects and boasts the only MLB rotation in modern history with a rotation of four homegrown starters under the age of 26, all who spent no more than two seasons in the minors.
That group includes Logan Gilbert, George Kirby, Bryan Woo and Bryce Miller, who pitched for the Aggies from 2019 to 2021 before being selected by the Mariners in the 2021 MLB Draft. Miller, who fast-tracked his way through the Mariners system, joined the Seattle rotation earlier this season.
Jason Hutchins
Director of Baseball Operations
Jason Hutchins is in his 24th year as the Director of Operations for the Texas A&M baseball team as the Aggies embark on the 2022 campaign. Hutchins is responsible for organizing the day-to-day activities associated with the baseball program and is director of the Dugout Club. His baseball knowledge is a huge asset to the Aggie coaching staff.
Hutchins, who serves under his third head coach in Aggieland, is vital in the administration and teaching aspects of the Texas A&M Baseball Camp, serving as the camp director for the last 18 seasons. Additionally, Hutchins keeps close ties with former players, who are a major part of Aggie Baseball family and are often invited back to the Brazos Valley for events such as the Former Players Weekend.
Chuck Box
Director of Player and Program Development
Chuck Box is in his first season as the Director of Player & Program Development for Texas A&M baseball. Box brought 32-years of coaching experience with him to Aggieland.
In his 25-year head coaching career, Box has amassed a record of 735-326, good enough for a .692 career winning percentage. He has coached 14 All-Americans, 13 players selected to play professional baseball, 31 All-State selections, 143 All-Conference designees and 45 collegiate signees. He is a six-time MAIS Coach of the Year and has garnered countless additional coaching honors at both the high school and collegiate levels. Box is currently a Task Force Scout for USA Baseball, and has been a featured clinic speaker at various coaching conferences across the American South.
Will Fox
Director of Video and Analytics
Will Fox enters his fifth season on the staff and his third year as the Director of Video and Analytics as the Aggies embark on the 2024 campaign. He spent his first two years as Director of Player Personnel and Video Coordinator.
The Aggies have been a resounding success in Fox's first two seasons as Director of Video and Analytics, putting together an 82-47 overall record.
The squad advanced to the 2022 College World Series in his first year at the helm, winning A&M’s first games in Omaha since 1993. Ol’ Sarge’s charges finished as one of the final four teams in Omaha for the first time in school annals. The Maroon & White finished 44-20 and won the SEC Western Division title with a 19-11 mark. Aggies turned heads on the field with Jacob Palisch and Dylan Rock earning All-America recognition and Micah Dallas, Joseph Menefee and Rock getting selected in the MLB Draft.
The Aggies followed a trip to Omaha in his inaugural season by pushing his squad to the title games of both the SEC Tournament and the Stanford Regional, finishing the year with a 38-27 mark.
