Tech is about to announce an extension for Tadlock.
Schloss's answer in no way takes him off the table. History is full of coaches making the same comment during a season only to move as soon as the season ended.Capt. America said:
Schloss and Tadlock already off the table. Not a good look Ross.
Big raises for his staffWicked Good Ag said:what is the dessert?Sq 17 said:If the Kendall Rogers tweet is correct then the $12.5 million announcement was just the appetizer and the entree is the new multi year dealSq 17 said:Given how social media rollouts are engineered , this is probably the first ( and smallest ) announcement that tceh has this week.Maroon Elephant said:
$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.
His tweets are still up so how does that work?Fury_239 said:
Kendall Rogers said to ignore that report in premium board.
This is a huge development for @TTU_Baseball and frankly, for Kirby Hocutt. Tadlock leaving for Texas A&M would’ve been brutal considering the hoops coach left for Texas. Big day in the Hub City. https://t.co/aEu04O7mW9

Maybe, ... even though he lost 2 of 3 at home to Maryland this weekend.dermdoc said:
I like Bakich at Michigan.
That's why I don't think Schloss has shut us down. He's damn sure not going to talk about it right before their postseason begins.ftworthag02 said:
Wouldn't the announcement come after this particulars coaches team is finished w/ the postseason , assuming they're in the post season?

I thought you liked the ND coach. I am so confused!dermdoc said:

Bakich has a good pedigree and took Michigan to the CWS finals. That is pretty solid.85AustinAg said:
Aren't Link Jarrett and Eric Bakich a bit unproven at this point? OR are you saying we are going to strike out on all of the upper echelon guys and these will be left available?

Getting Michigan to the College World Series and being named NCBWA National Coach of the Year makes me feel okay about that. He was a very good recruiter at Vandy, so he has seen the SEC up close.Sq 17 said:
Pretty sure Jarrett is being successful playing an ACC schedule so that counts, Bakich yeah B1G hard to say that he is a proven commodity
TAM85 said:
Ok Derm. I will go with Bakich. My three interviews would be Vitello, Jarrett and Bakich.
Why what? There aren't any possible candidates who are both (1) clearly better than Childress and (2) available to us. We are rolling the dice, and I don't like the odds.dermdoc said:May I ask why?SchizoAg said:TCU beat us by razor-thin margins those two years, one of which they were the beneficiary of Eric Hyman being our AD while favoring TCU on the selection committee . Flip those outcomes, and Childress then has more CWS appearances than him. I liked our chances in Omaha both of those years.TxA&Mhunter said:
You realize that he has to be good teams in Omaha to have wins there right? how many times did he beat us to go?
This nonsense about his schedule is rubbish... He gets some scholarship help but at the end of the day acting like he's a bad hire is just flat out ignorant and shows that some people don't know jack about baseball.
There is way too much luck (especially due to the notoriously fickle and arbitrary selection committee) in college baseball to say Schlossnagle is clearly better than Childress.
(However, as I've said, I don't think we can get anyone clearly better than Childress. I expect our program to get worse.)
Rob is a fine man, but he's been on a downward trajectory since 2016. Doing better than we've done for the last five seasons isn't a terribly high bar to clear.Quote:

$1000 says that our record over the next 5 years will be worse in percentage terms than our record in Childress' last 5.TxA&Mhunter said:
This is the biggest rubbish I've seen in a while...The reality is that rob hasn't recruited Houston well in almost 5 years... For our program to be super successful we have to have a strong presence in and around Houston metroplex ...
When you're routinely on the winning side of the razor thin margins, its not luck.SchizoAg said:Why what?

This is a weird bet. Teams don't play for best winning percentage.SchizoAg said:$1000 says that our record over the next 5 years will be worse in percentage terms than our record in Childress' last 5.TxA&Mhunter said:

($1000 five years from now will be worth about 35 cents in today's money, but that's neither here nor there.)
