If anyone has watched the Texas A&M baseball Instagram video you can see that Schott is wearing 12 on his shorts while everyone else wears their number. All speculation but I believe Schott will wear 12 like most expected
He’s a Fighting Texas Aggie and he just don’t give a damn

Makes sense to me. He definitely embodies the 12th man spirit.

100% should be 12.

Or he just stole targac's shorts for practice.

Love Schott but would've liked to see Kent get 12 after what he did off the bench for us last season. Can't go wrong with either guy, both great Aggies.

It's been a senior every year.

Prager would have made some sense too.

Y'all are reading a little too much into this. Schott probably just stole a pair of Ryan's shorts for inspiration because he wants that same... uh... physique.

100% needed to be Schott. With Jace as a close 2nd

I would have thought Jace, he was the guy that was the most vocal about Early andche's the best player that has ever played here, likely the #1pick. I love Schott but the guy that demands the room when he speaks would be these two (Prager and Jace), but who doesn't love Schott, so i get it.

Kent will get his chance ….. Schott is the only choice.

Kent and Laviolette are juniors - I thought this was for a senior only.

How would a top player ever be 12 in baseball - like Jace or Gavin if it's just for SR only? Those guys will always be gone before their SR year.

I say we kill the 12 for baseball. The number hasn't been kind the the two players awarded the number.

There are no rules. Schloss said before that he'd like to give it to a player "in his last year at the program." Jace will certainly be in his last year next year. But it doesn't matter because there are no rules. Whoever the team/coaches think deserves it.

The new coaches might not even continue it. Though I think it would be nice to continue.

Those were the days before we started giving the 12 to reward/honor someone. In the old days, we had 1-40, so someone had it every year. But, 2 years ago, the former coach came up with using the number as an honor. Didn't work out for Bost or Targac.

No, it wasn't. Claunch was the first one that POS awarded the 12 to.

If they represent A&M well, why try to control it? E. Gill King was asked to be available but volunteered to do so. Same for Jackie's kickoff players. I'd like to think the entire student body participates voluntarily by standing, but I happen to remember significant jawing to help people volunteer to stand…

Our recent 12th Man #12 wearers aren't exactly embarrassing…and Coach seems to be a stand up guy…

The first three recipients have all been seniors. Maybe that's why I thought that was the requirement.

I could see it being Jace and I love Schott. Being a Senior is not a set rule.

Might be an unpopular opinion, but I'm still holding out hope that this tradition dies with the new staff in place.

First, because one of the best things about baseball is that it is the ONLY sport on campus that doesn't try to shoehorn football traditions into it.

Second, has any player over the last several years actually IMPROVED their stats/production after being named '12'?

Why Stewart? Besides him making an Instagram caption against Schloss. What has he done to earn it over Jace and Schott?

Comes from family of Aggies, the dude made it a point to say he was staying when our world was on fire, Senior, never had a pitcher 12th man so that would be cool, will be a huge key to our bullpen this year, He has a great story of being at the wrong school (tu) and persevering to get to his dream school (A&M)

Need I say more? Maybe I'm old school, but if there's so many great options, I'm going to pick the guys who never even thought about the transfer portal. Don't want to cause a debate, it's just how I feel.

I love every player on this team, that's just how I feel about the number 12 situation.
