I believe I read some post that Hutchins would be staying but nothing in McMillan.

I have heard that Mac is being retained. Don't take it to the bank, just repeating something I heard from a reliable source.

Isn't S&C mostly a product of a HC's direction?

Like most good coaches have a big toolbox to work from but in the end, they develop what HC wants.

Looks to be updated for 2022. https://12thman.com/sports/baseball/roster

The physical appearance of our players really aren't much different than any other team in the conference. Lots of different body types. Did some carry too much weight? Yes. Are some naturally built tall and lean? Yes. Are some cut and you wouldn't want to meet in a back alley? Absolutely. Sure one can point out a few guys that can use some toning one way or another but you can do that with just about every roster in college baseball.

Water under the bridge. If you don't trust the Head Coach to figure it out, welp, you are gonna be miserable to be around.

Here's something I always found interesting and slightly confusing....
I think everybody would agree that Frizzell looked Substantially different than he has his previous years... and that his physical condition added him and staying healthy and being more productive... right?

Staff here and on the radio Constantly talked about the amount of work HE put in.... Why in the world did some one not have him work out/eat like this first year on campus? Was there a lack of emphasis from the head coach? Or was it on the player to do the program rather than how football approaches it? What the program that he was using one of his own design our staff a private coach or what?

I totally disagree... i think the weight he carried coming and after his first year had an effect on his ability to stay healthy

I have never heard anything to suggest a HC micro manages an S&C program.

I had to stop and remind myself that we recently hired arguably one of the top HC in the country (who we used to bash and talk **** about), who turned around and hired a very impressive staff. I will refrain from dissing on any coach until the end of next season.

I think expert is saying we used to bash him because he was kicking our ass.

A HC shouldn't micro manage a S&C program but the S&C program sure as hell better include his guidelines and goals for the team and the S&C coach better follow through with it. My guess is that like someone else mentioned our guy has a lot of tools in his box and the HC was comfortable that under the HC's direction McMillan can take us were Schloss wants us to be.

What makes you feel its been inadequate? Us being bad last year had little or nothing to do with our strength and conditioning. Whatever they did for Will Frizell over his career seemed to be effective.

---

He's probably basing it off of the physical appearance of our players compared to other SEC teams. We either look small/skinny or like randy bullock clones. Minus Frizzell of course

---

3-4 players looked significantly out of shape this spring. Not sure who to blame. The S&C coach can recommend the greatest workout regimen in the country, but if the players don't execute it, not much he can do.

---

I would say it goes back to the staff....if the S&C coach lays out a programs for players and they don't follow I'm sure the staff would be awared. All said if Schloss wants to keep him on I'm good on that.

My 9 year old just finished his first Aggie baseball camp and came away completely head over heels with Hutch. As a dad sitting back listening I thought he was an incredible ambassador for Texas A&M and also just generally for the way the game should be played. The way he interacted with these kids who are not yet prospects, I can only imagine how well he gets along with the ones that come in that are ready to be prospects.

Was your kid there in the Friday camp on 7/9? If so, my 10-year old (turns 11 on 7/21) was there too and he absolutely loved it. He had a lot of the same vibe- he loved the instruction and the way they were treated like ballplayers and not just there for glorified daycare.

An old teammate of mine (pitcher) said they put him through a full upper body workout the morning of games he would pitch. I've always questioned our S&C after that.

No, we were only able to make it in for Saturday.
