That shouldn't be your concern considering that's only two years of missing Omaha (18/19). They didn't have a CWS last year.

My biggest concern for our next coach is expectations like this.
Asking questions =/= setting crazy expectations.

2018 ~.500 record and missed regionals
2019 ~.550 record and invited to regionals and losing in Regional Finals to Arkansas at Arkansas

It is worth determining more about these years (injuries, etc) to get a full picture.

Power belly to the rescue. I should have ignored language like "long drought" and "get his mojo back" because it was framed as a question.

Sorry for trying to have a discussion on a discussion board.

No matter who the coach is I think Childress will have spoiled us on a high floor. There is going to be some doomsday threads here when our coach has a hiccup season.

My only expectation and concern is to that we get the best coach that we can. Trying to discuss different coaches track record. Why so dramatic? I'm not going to be disappointed if we get Schlossnagle but what happened in 2018 and 2019 when his teams went 33-23 and 34-28 are at least worth pointing out and discussing.

That's a different conversation. I reacted to a post that hinted at lost mojo and a long drought in reference to Omaha trips.

I don't even want Schloss so feel free to chip away at everything else.

perhaps the more immediate question...

if LSU wins Thursday night...does the athletic department start (or continue) developing some kind of farewell tribute / presentation for Saturday's game?

Would never happen unless he announces he is stepping down

What makes you think they haven't already done so?

Seems unlikely that he gets fired until the season is done andEven if we lose Thursday I don't think we are mathematically eliminated until we lose Two games

yes, that's part of the quandary.

the earliest A&M could be eliminated from Hoover is Friday (game 2)...and there might not be enough time after that

I'm assuming that once he's been let go then we will all have to wait until the next coach is finished with postseason play before anything is announced for a replacement so let's hope Texags doesn't freak out too much if it's a deep run by said next coach. (doubtful Texags doesn't freak out lol)

Aforementioned tribute for rc

I'm calling no in game tribute now, I think he'll get a "farewell" tweet.

"Quandary?" You're talking about this as if anyone else actually cares whether he gets a tribute video.

I realize that you're a newby, since you've only been around since 2003, but you really should know better.

Texags will freak out if Childress isn't fired on the big screen after Saturday's game, even though the contract is expiring.

Yes. Just like every other time a successful and long tenured coach is let go in any sport. "Freak out" is a fun choice of words.

Schlossnagle - .673 winning percentage, 770-374.

NCAA Regionals every year since 2002 (first year as UNLV Head Coach) except for 2002 (UNLV), 2013, and 2018 (TCU).

CWS in 2010, 2014. 2015, 2016, 2017 (All at TCU). 5 CWS appearances in 18 years of Head Coaching.
By my rough count it appears he's won more games than he's lost (11-10) at the CWS during those five appearances (the only times TCU has ever been to the CWS).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TCU_Horned_Frogs_baseball
He's won more games and appeared in more games at the CWS than A&M has in its entire program history. They have a solid chance to make it back this year I think. It's a no brainer and it's very likely he's our next coach.

$12.5 million isn't much and they need to spend twice that to improve the dumpster they are playing in. That said, it may be enough to keep him there.

"Likely"....? It'd take pretty close to twice what RC makes for starters, but he's got a better program, better stadium, better facilities, not sure about a buyout - but a commitment for upgrades to facilities/stadium will be part of the asking price. That's a LOT of dough to say "likely"....unless you have an inside track to some info.

Lupton is not better than Olsen. Not that this is particularly important as it pertains to hiring a new coach, but let's not get sloppy in the discussion

Given how social media rollouts are engineered , this is probably the first ( and smallest ) announcement that tceh has this week.

Welcome to texags, where our opponents have gold gilded stadiums and we're playing in a drifter camp.

Even once?

Have you been to Blue Bell?

Once?
