Kendall stated there were (2) splash hires that would jump at the opportunity to coach here.

I would think there would be a ton of West Coast coaches looking to get the hell out of the PAC and the SEC would be the destination of choice.

Is Sully at UF a pipe dream? His salary is like 1.84 mil. Pay him 2.5 and be done with it. After all he's the guy Schloss is always talking about wanting his program to be like. Make him say no.

I'm sure he would come to the school that just had two idiots berating him and his dugout

Mitch Canham
Tyler Naquin
Josh Holliday
Ben Orloff
The Lamar coach

This won't be a hard search. Tons of qualified guys will want this job.




This better not be our list:
Canham, Holliday, Orloff ain't leaving their alma maters even for TAMU. And we shouldn't want any of them. Will Davis has been to 0 NCAA tournaments. Not MCWS, TOURNAMENTS! Tyler Naquin hasn't coached a day that I can find in any collegiate sense.
Oregon State just lost their Oregon State grad football coach who had them ranked in the top 15 for the first time in years. Being without a conference home will do that.

Any guesses as to who he is referring to?

Gotta say the OU coach doesn't seem like a "splash" hire.

Better at least make Vitello tell us no. If that happens them:

Link Jarrett
Mingione
Bakich

Anybody else and we are back to the RC days.


A week ago EVERYONE was cussing vitello, calling him a ****** bag.


Vitello IS a ****** bag. But he's a damn good coach, and doesn't seem to be a liar. He tells it like it is whether you like it or not. And he will usually say it in a way that can be described as that of a horrible human or "motivation" (if you watch Welcome to Wrexham)

Skip Johnson would be a huge disappointment. No one has mentioned Dan McDonnell. I know Louisville has not been great the last couple of years, but he has had similar success as CJS before he came to A&M. I like him better than the other realistic names being bantered around.

That's been posted somewhere. Also that he would be actively pursuing the job. He seems like a credible hire but can't see it being a splash.

good at coaching is such a small part of it now, need the BEST portal worker available. Isn't Schloss considered the best at it so far?

Skip Johnson would be the equivalent of Stoops for football to me...

I mean hell... I feel like Childress had a better record of consistent post season play than him

I thought Nolan Cain was the recruiting guy.

Realistically, you just need a HC who has a good recruiter they can bring.

Alberts had to know for a month or more that this was a real possibility. Heck, Billy knew this could happen. If Alberts did nothing to prepare for this and is starting from scratch, he should be fired.

I'd bet they are working it very , very hard right now . If they weren't prepared for it then that's on them because it sounds like there was plenty of smoke before the fire got out of control for weeks to months.

And if it's on them, we need different thems.

UGA upped Wes Johnson contract with dollars and extension, so he's a no (not saying he'd be on the list, but if he was, he isn't anymore).

Vitello not coming...he said no to tu earlier in the year. But, after what Schloss just did, he will not do that to Tenn. In fact, it might make many coaches rethink this scenario a small bit.
Vitello coming here is in now way comparable to what Schlossbag did. Not even close.

Vitello saying no to cow is nothing more than a internet rumor.

If youre going to pay somebody 2.5 then get Vitello here. He's twice the coach that Sully is and just won a natty.

Well he is. But if you don't want to lose all of our current players, recruits, etc then he's the guy. Besides that, he would bring some absolute STUDS from a team that just won a natty.

Vitello isn't leaving Tennessee. Bakich, Jarrett, and Mangione have their dream jobs. I really feel like the best guy the Aggies could go get is Dan McDonnell. If he could load up on talent the way he did at Louisville, he could kill it at A&M. Much easier place to recruit to and he knows how to win in the postseason.

My 12 year old learned the d word this past weekend thanks to watching the games with me and seeing how Vitello/UT players acted. Sadly I have now had to tell her that it was our coach who was the true ****** all along.

offer him 2.5 mill and he'd be on the first flight to CS

Dan McDonnell (Louisville) is an intriguing possibility.

I've heard that away from the diamond, Vitello is a good dude. He also has a skin on the wall.

Coach Almost is a ********** and Almost had a skin on the wall. And hopefully, that is as close as he'll ever come.

It's a rare thing for me to hate someone, but if Almost was on fire, I wouldn't piss on him unless I could piss gasoline.

Has any one of the sports betting junkies on this site go find the odds on the next coaches to be hired? Who are the odds on to land the job?

We have the money. Get it done and let's pay some players. To be this close and not get it, I don't care what it takes.
But seriously, someone needs to call someone in the legislature and lobby they shouldn't be poaching coaches from in state universities and still get state funding.

The guy also has a cool factor, is young and had a team full of hungry dawgs. Pay him and get him here.

Were you born in 2023? What team eliminated the Aggies from the CWS in 2022?

Skip Johnson would be an excellent hire.

He's done a great job at a school with TERRIBLE facilities and very little importance placed on baseball.

He could be a homerun hir, pun intended, certainly it would be a very good hire.

Johnson has made it just as far as Schloss has… something to think about
