I think his goal all along was to get to tu.

Then why not take the job when Augie was let go then he wouldn't have to worry about Pierce? His name was bandied about with the other big names at the time. I guess you could argue he did not want to leave the talent that he had at TCU at the time but if your dream job is in Austin you probably should take it when it comes open.

A lot of high level coaches are narcissistic. They believe their own lies. Technically he might not be lying as I suspect it was his agent doing all the negotiations and he's just "talking to his agent." That's hard to believe though if CDC is really his good buddy. Now if some of the stuff about burner phones and active recruiting against his own program is true, that's a whole nother story.

Just checking to make sure I have this correct.

1. Scholls said at his press conference he only began to consider Texas after CDC came to visit with him the day he got back from Omaha, and prior to that he was 100% all in and focused on his players.

2. Now he says that he began to think about moving on due to this meeting with Trev before the regional.
So he was thinking about moving on, he talks with his best friend CDC every week, we were about to host Texas in the regionals where they'd see each other, but he didn't talk about it with CDC at any point until he got back from Omaha.

3. Literally dozens of baseball folks were talking about him moving around the time of the Georgia series, which was a couple of weeks BEFORE his meeting with Trev? (and IMHO which is WHY Trev had the conversation with him..

--------

He says he met with a few players after landing back in College Station to let them know "this could happen."
But how did he know this "could happen" if he hadn't talked seriously to CDC yet?

and his press conference rant was after the game, which he claims was before he began talking seriously to CDC in College Station, so how did he suddenly know that this "could happen" between the conference and meeting CDC.

Perhaps a flight attendant told him to take the job. They can be mighty convincing.

-------
1. During his press conference he said A&M was tremendously supportive and gave him everything he needed to be successful. Just wanted to be in Austin with CDC.

2. During the season he kept raving about the support he and "his team" was getting from the 12th Man, fans, NIL, etc.

3. He was able to bring in several stud players to A&M specifically due to that support and NIL funding.

4. But now he's saying he was having a hard time recruiting players to A&M and College Station, especially black players, and maybe it's because we don't have enough NIL and because we don't let the dance team perform at baseball games?

The man needs to seriously take some time off, figure out what his bull**** story is going to be, have an editor fact check and continuity check it, and then get back to us. Jeez, at least TRY to do a better job of being a weasel.

Since the news broke, I have thought that Schloss's own words will be what damages him the most.
