We have never had a coach like Schloss.....he's brought an entire new mentality.... he's a winner. I assume every little detail matters to him.
You're right, not really a press conference. But the statement stands, especially considering your point. If he's in an emotional state where he's going to say what's on his mind with no filter and that's what's on his mind after winning a tight ballgame to avoid being swept then he's really thinking too much about it. He's gotta' let it go. (I'm talking more about the newspaper thing than fans saying nasty things.)twk said:Calling it a press conference paints a picture rather different from reality. If you watch the video, you can see that Schloss is still breathing pretty heavily. He's still wound up from punching through a barrier that was getting really frustrating. Hell, he got ejected Friday night. If someone were to stick a microphone in my face under those circumstances, lord knows what I would say.ensign_beedrill said:This.

I think you are correct. Have a friend who played for the Aggies swing at a pitch that was a take sign and hit a homer. RC told him congrats on the homer but take a seat on the bench and didn't play for a few games. You do what the coaches say. Take, stop, hit and run on an obvious ball pitch, bunt, steal, etc. The week was probably wearing on Schloss, terrible umpiring on Friday, cold bats, along with the newspaper guy and a player running through a stop sign. He wasn't happy and I'm sure Chestnut got an earful.DTP02 said:KSigAg12 said:drthoop said:
3 pages and I still don't know what happened
Some jerk was badmouthing our players from behind the dugout. Schloss called him out in his presser and let his emotions get away. Thin skinned people on here took it personally.
Pretty much the nutshell.
I really don't know when this fanbase got so damn soft. Y'all go find your safe place now I'm sure bad old Schloss will apologize and beg your forgiveness. Christ you'd think he'd shot Rev.
Agreed. People will take an inch and go a mile to make a bigger deal about it than it was. He was simply really irritated from hearing it all game probably mixed in with the struggle to start the year.
Didn't Schloss do exactly the same thing, except even moreso? He took a great crowd showing, on a Sunday against Portland, for a team that was struggling, and made the focus a couple of fans saying less than encouraging things and a guy holding up a paper.
I was sitting pretty close to all of this and didn't notice any of it, but I talked to someone who sat right behind our dugout and he says the only thing he heard was a few yells like "swing the bat" when Targac had that horrible at bat where he watched three strikes, or "stop trying to hit a home run every swing." Maybe there was more but it didn't make a big impression on many people, and I don't think it's normal that the coach would be one of the ones to pick up on it more than anyone else.
Pretty tame stuff and not anything worth singling out in a postgame presser after a dramatic win in front of a great crowd.
I think Schloss was frustrated, stressed from the game, was super hot about Chestnut running thru the stop sign, and then relieved excited about the win, and the combo of all that had him hot and on edge, and he chose his subjects and words poorly.
Doesn't change how excited and happy we are to have him as coach, but he doesn't need a knee-jerk defense of those comments either.
You're right about that, at least for yesterday. That ninth inning rally was about me getting on the rowing machine and nothing else.ensign_beedrill said:

There's still time to delete that last sentenceAggie1188 said:
Schloss said "I don't know what kind of place this is", regarding fans yelling at players over the dugout.
And was he mad about the dancing girls being disrespected by old people with newspapers? Just clarifying.. Yelling at players seems way worse than that tho.
Maybe he can take up for us who want the girls on the sidelines at football games like female cheerleaders should be.

Every. Damn. Time.
He wants to win. He wants fan support. I loved RC with every bit of my tiny dark heart but it's time to get lost in the Schloss and support him.

I agree with some of the posters on here and the premium board that the prop guy is in a tough spot. He doesn't want to watch the girls shake their stuff from below because it can five 'creepy old man' vibes, so he reads a newspaper. Could he look at his phone? Probably. But then does he get called out for looking at his phone? Maybe. Maybe the newspaper is a generational thing. I don't know. Does he get up and leave every time they come out? He could, but then he would be called out for leaving. He's going to be considered rude every time. At least he isn't yelling profanities at them. Maybe he should wave dollar bills. Would anyone be ok with that? I'm sure worse has happened at other places.
I am of the mind the dancers don't belong at Olsen. I don't know if the comment that they're at Olsen because Schloss' daughter danced at TCU is accurate, but I know TCU had dancers. I do feel like the dancers are a hill Schloss has chosen to die on, and he will be offended regardless of what anyone does or says about it.
No way. It's our first real controversy of the season. We were itching to get some opinions out there and this is the perfect vessel.dabo man said:

The fact that you at least knew to quit while you were (WAY) behind and not comment anymore after page 1 of this thread means you're showing a little bit of progress. Kudos.yell_on_6th st said:Farmer1906 said:yell_on_6th st said:Farmer1906 said:yell_on_6th st said:

Snap a few photos next time you at the game and post 'em here.
We need to see just how bad this situation is.

Best idea I've seen on this thread.
Get one of the staunchest defenders to video a whole routine from row one for all of us lolpoors. This way everyone can make an educated decision
