Assuming we get a new coach after this season would we realistically be able to contend in the SEC next season or is this a multi year rebuild at this point?

I'd give it about 3 years of rebuild before I hope to have a good chance in year 3. College baseball gives freshmen a better chance to compete than football so it's not necessarily time to develop players so much as time to get the a foot in the state and gather talent.
That being said, for both his presence in state and what he has accomplished atIraqTexas Tech, I want to crack open the checkbook for Tim Tadlock.
I still think we could compensate enough, but I didn't know he's a Tech alum, so that's not gonna happen.Sq 17 said:Alpha Texan said:

Problem with hiring Tadlock , he is already well compensated. As a coach why would you take over a rebuild when you have been consistently getting to Omaha with your current team. He is also a tech Alum.
Possibly we could money whip the UVA guy or Schlossnagle

it will be fun for the aggie baseball historians to compare the "cupboards" left behind.
among the players MJ left for Childress:
Kyle Nicholson
Jason Meyer
Jordan Chambless
Parker Dalton
Craig Stinson
Blake Stouffer
and I think Kyle Colligan and Kyle Thebeau were November 2004 signees for MJ. Not sure if Luke Anders was too.
you know...that's a pretty good list of ballplayers
That's what i wanted to hear!Hop said:
With the new transfer rule and the usual JUCO talent supply that waits to sign in the summer, a baseball roster can be turned over very quickly.
If A&M hires a very good to elite coach (and I think they will), you'll see an immediate improvement in year one, and by year two the new coach will have the roster up to full strength and making a run at Omaha.
Why? If we can get transfers now the new coach should do it.W said:
if I remember correctly...the great purge came after Childress' first season (2006) --- not before his first season.
so most of the underclassmen will get a shot with the new coach...and then the transfers will pour in.
only 3 players are hitting above .240 in conference play. Two of them for sure won't be back: Frizzell (draft) and Alejo (eligibility expired).
there could be massive turnover

MJ left some other dudes for Childress whom he ran off went and started for other programs who made the CWS too.

Shewmake was on the last team that played a full season....first round draft pick.Jebber said:
New coach will definitely change up 2022 recruits as far as hitters. Can't remember the last recruit we had that had a great bat.

Not an option. He won't come here to take the job from his friend and former assistant.12thmanfootball said:
