Paging everyone that said I didn't know anything about 9 this morning

Yeah, some folks owe you an apology. Even your numbers were correct (allowing for a little increase from continued negotiation). I've seen some of your posts in the past where you had good info too - enough to know not to call you out like that.

I posted that he was leaving Saturday after the Game 1 win…apparently the topic was off limits then and my thread was deleted. On Saturday the idea of him leaving couldn't even be stomached, now we're here. Wild couple of days.

God I hate coaching rumor mills.

Schloss came out last night and slammed the door on leaving for Texas, and there are still posters and people on twitter saying "well ahkshually what he really meant was..."

---

well i look pretty stupid now

---

When coaches avoid flat out saying "I'm not leaving" then you really can't trust them

---

He could have simply said "No" amd left it at that. What he did was a huge red flag.

Especially the comment about Braden. I think he said it was selfish because the night belonged to the team, but he let his emotions get the best of him and it came out like microwaved dog *****

Because the answer was yes. Braden is going to sign in the draft. So he did answer the question, in a roundabout way, we just contorted everything else to make it seem like he was staying.

Sooooooo, I'm still in Omaha waiting on my flight back to Texas. Spoke to a few @AggieBaseball fans waiting with me.

They have some thoughts on Jim Schlossnagle leaving for Austin. #GigEm pic.twitter.com/ZlfjTGOCrQ

Really really really inappropriate to ask that question right now. Not cool at all by that reporter. Reporters should not base their questions on Texags baseball thread topics.

This post cracks me up

Again, nothing is final until it's final. I'm just passing along what I've heard from people who played/coached at Texas and wouldn't go out of their way to blow smoke up my ass.

If I'm wrong, I apologize for passing along what I was told.

---

Many people on here owe you an apology.

Just suggesting that his comments & reactions didn't look good last night had people on here getting out the pitchforks.

The hysteria of him going to Austin was created on this board yesterday and then a board reporter asked him about the hysteria. (At a bad time). It's pretty ridiculous. That question couldn't wait a day or two or more? It had to be asked in that moment when the coach and the team just wrapped up the most successful season ever and came up two runs short? That was an emotional time for coach and the players and that's what you want to ask him about?

---

Yes. It had to be asked then. Was the only opportunity.

Good for Zane and **** Schloss

I'm not tricking myself. I'm taking Schloss for the way he has acted all three years he's been here. Everything he has shown since he's been here is he love it's. Loves the fan base. Etc

There is only one thing he has shown at anytime that he has been displeased here. His importance on updating Bluebell.

Thus, the only thing that would possibly make his thinking change would be if A&M dropped the ball on that one. I'm not expecting that one so at this time. Yes, my thinking is there is zero chance of him considering another job.

---

This didn't age too well.

Diamond could have manned up and admitted he was wrong and apologized for calling people names last night. But I could tell he wasn't the type that would do that.

People that attack other posters using "[insert coach's name] truly loves A&M and would never leave and their love for everything here should never be questioned" are useful idiots. I thought we had all realized that coaches are just paid entertainers with no real or imagined loyalty when Gillispie left. The exact same things were said then to shout down anyone who dared admit out loud that Gillispie might not stay

It's psychological projection. Poster loves A&M, wants successful coach to stay, projects his own emotions onto coach to convince themselves and others that 1) coach will stay no matter what the rumors say, and 2) they are morally superior because they alone truly understand how the coach really feels

How about this question: Zane, have you been fired yet?

---

What for? Doing his job?

---

This has already been covered on this thread multiple times from the very first responses. That question did not have to be asked last night. It's that simple. Rise above how sips handle things and handle things the right way.

Schloss's opening statement should have given Zane pause on holding that type of question off until Schloss's next interview following such a great season. Do your job correctly, not like the sips act.

LB12Diamond said:

Another obtuse poster. Shocking

LB12Diamond said:

Oh

Now I see why you responded this way. You were the one I used obtuse on when you earlier could not see the similarities.

And now I see why you picked that other post to respond to. It aligned with you trying to blame the sips as well.

You are right about one thing. I have wasted to much time on this thread trying to help others understand why it was wrong to ask the question. If they cannot see why, it's just not in their DNA.

Before I hit the sack and forever move on from this...


Schloss wasn't mad the question was asked.

It was disrespectful, but not because of the rumors or because of the moment.

Schloss thought the question was disrespectful because texags was the only crew who knew what was about to happen, and they had the gall to call him on it. He was disrespected, not because it was a disrespectful question, but because his little scheme was brought to light.

Schloss immediately went into defense mode because he's a little ***** at heart and couldn't take the heat. He reacted the same way all cheaters do when they get caught, defensively, aggressively and without merit.

**** that guy and here's to whipping his ass for the foreseeable future. Or at least until his own actions bring him down.

I really thought he was offended because why would he leave with the program in amazing shape and it was ridiculous to even consider. But I was wrong. Turns out it was so ridiculous it was true and he was pissed they called him out. At the time I felt like it was bad timing for the question but if Texags already knew, then it makes perfect sense and could have gone even more aggressive.


Anyone that would leave A&M for Austin right after going to the national championship and talking about loving the 12th man is a special kind of deranged. He deserves every ounce of ridicule and distrust.

Agreed. In all the hindsight and second guessing, it makes the most sense out of everything given what we know about human nature and psychology.

Dude got caught in a massive question he was trying to keep under wraps and got caught unprepared and so simply reacted. By lashing out and redirecting the question into a personal attack. I mean, it truly is Psych 101.

I was wrong I admit it. The irony is astonishing, what seemed like a poorly timed question last night now makes sense and exposed what a selfish ****head schloss is. Thank you Zane for enlightening me and I apologize for my initial skepticism. I still cant wrap my head around how poorly this has played out. The timing of this all seems intentional by schloss and cdc.

TA folks have confirmed they've known it was a real possibility for months. And they repeatedly asked him privately to comment. This was the last chance to put him on the record so they did.

TexAgs or ESPN needs to make a 30 for 30 about this unveiling a timeline and the conversations that happened between Schloss and the players, AD's, and the other staff at TAMU; ultimately rubbing a smear or the Texas program and Schloss for what he did ruining his name and reputation every time it airs.

Why the **** would ESPN besmirch a program they so heavily promote?

Another poster justifying his bad posts by using a crazy assumption. Maybe change your name to Ag that breaks down instead of builds.

Hey there

you going to take that from LB12CubicZirconia?

GOOD.
