Arizona State let their coach go. Made NCAA regional in 4 of 6 full seasons. He made Indiana into a power when he was there from 2006 to 2014.
Interesting. I was an advocate of hiring him when he was at Indiana.

I agree. DBU is one of those hidden DFW academic gems that a lot of folks don't know much about. Every DBU grad I've worked with has been very impressive.

Kinda some bad luck for the guy. His team last year was one of the best in the country, didn't get the chance to prove it because of Covid. Then this year his squad was bit with the injury bug... little too quick of a trigger for a school that's having to rebuild after their sanctions.

From Killer Frogs last night -

Couple notes from what I've put together today:

- There was dialogue between TCU and Schloss/his camp either recently or today, they understand Schloss's frustrations and interest in a fresh start.

- TCU has essentially asked for the "last meeting" to try and get him to stay, large contract will be offered, plans for program investments with VBo/Board level investment in those promises.

- Nobody seems hopeful This may have been cooking too long. You can back up a little, but can't rewind to the start.

- A&M may be thinking of waiting, to interview Heefner this week ahead of the DBU Super. Good for TCU, time helps us as we build our case and offer.

- Get the sense, if Schloss leaves, Heefner will get an interview if he is interested. Saarloos also a favorite, that's the "continuation" strategy.

I really don't see us hiring a mid major. Not saying he isn't an excellent coach, just saying I don't think we'll go there.

Neither do I.

I was just bringing over what the TCU boards were saying....

Not that one, any way. I think we'd hire Godwin from ECU before we'd hire Heefner. If Heefner wants a big time job (and I'm not sure he does), he's going to need to prove himself at a middle tier Power 5, like Baylor, or TCU if he was lucky enough to get that, before one of the big jobs will seriously look at him.

Agree Tom. If we were to go mid major I think it would be Godwin.

TCU would be smart to talk to Heefner before promoting Sarloos. IMO he's a better hire just because he's a proven head coach in that area. Sarloos comes with a lot of risk. This is assuming we're hiring Schloss.

Not a shot at you, but how would the TCU boards know what the A&M athletic department is doing in terms of interviews and job offers?

I think yall are reading that wrong. TCU was doing the interviewing of Heefner.

Same way we would have insiders telling us about another school trying to poach one of our coaches?

If Bjork waits too long we will end up with a T-Ball coach!!! But, then again, maybe we need one. Hopefully, he has already talked to several coaches.

Overreact much? Going into this the timeline was next week after Super Regionals at the earliest. It's only because TCU's season ended earlier than expected that wrapping it up this week is even a possibility.

Good grief. Do you even have an inkling of how the process works? I guarantee you Bjork was talking to potential replacement candidates a year or more ago.

I doubt it. He's probably going to get the head coach job at TCU, and even if he doesn't, he may be looking to move up to a head coaching position rather than another pitching coach gig.

Luicci on the radio about an hour ago still seemed confident will be Schloss.

I wonder if he is waiting for the Fullerton job to come open.

Someone on the TCU board set he turned it down already.

Yup because they decided to be like a Yale instead of a Stanford. They've faded into irrelevancy.

Was it a "few years ago" though? I really don't know but I remember Rice being a powerhouse a decade ago. When did that change?
