And we all know that Texas will be ranked above aggy when the new poll comes out this week. Took just 3 weeks for Schloss and Early to flip the script. BWAHAHAHA!

* yeah but it’s baseball, so it could flip back
let’s not tempt the baseball gods

I swear every time aggy makes a thread like this regardless of the sport it backfires. You would think aggy would have learned to wait until season is over to talk

When Texas posters are less annoying than aggy posters, we know we’ve got a problem.

Hair thin margin, but still true.

This is so bad I feel sorry for Aggie in a Taylor Swift kinda way.

My fellow Aggie fans deserve all the shite for running their mouths before the season. Especially when-- instead of blaming the university's sports administrator and powers that be for running off the coach that brought winning baseball to you-- you instead front run on that coach's hitting coach being your new headman. And for what? Because Schloss very visibly and openly (and openly to the press, even) changed too much of A&M's arse backward "culture"? Because Schloss lobbied hard for an upgrade to the baseball facilities and talked about doing whatever is needed to attract top talent in order to win?

This entire episode told me that Trev Alberts was a comfort hire and he will do the bidding of the big money Ags who will forever rather get cucked but hold on to their "culture" and be "different" rather than strive for and gain excellence. And it told me that there will be plenty of lemmings just like the guy who started this thread, running their mouths-- and it's one thing to be positive about one's own team, especially one laden with talent-- but quite another to slam another team, especially one that just stole the best coach you ever had in your entire pathetic baseball sporting history.

Schloss's grave mistake: thinking and talking and acting like A&M will tolerate, beyond a certain point, new ways of thinking, doing, acting. Instead of fostering excellence, A&M drives it away!


quote:

"But Schlossnagle isn't afraid to try to jolt the Aggies into a new era, either. Take, for instance, his decision to invite the championship-caliber Aggie Dance Team to perform at baseball games since the all-male Yell Leaders roam the sidelines at Kyle Field.

"They don't get to dance at football games, which I think is idiotic," Schlossnagle said. "That's just old Aggie thinking. ... The first year, with some people you would have thought I changed the school colors to burnt orange. The repercussions were the craziest thing I've ever experienced."

If it improves the game-day experience, Schlossnagle isn't afraid to take the heat. And he'd prefer it if the music was loud. And current.

"Traditions are awesome, but traditional thinking is not awesome," he said. "We've worked hard to try and find that blend of honoring A&M and everything that it is and its core traditions. But at the same time, we're making our game and our program attractive to a 15-year-old because that's who we're recruiting."

Schloss wants A&M baseball to be a national powerhouse

I can almost guarantee that Schloss will do alright in Austin and even if he doesn't win more there (because, after all, baseball gods are fickle), he will most certainly keep that program high and likely higher ranked than A&M's. And that's no slam on Michael Earley and the rest of the coaches A&M ended up with-- they just don't have the same track record that Schloss has, and so until they show me they can win, I'm assuming they won't outdo Schloss's record at A&M. Happy to be proven wrong. It's also why most sane programs and their fans loathe to lose their best coach and that too, to their in-state rival program. It's one thing to put up a brave face about it but then to belittle that guy and his new program, that's just asinine.

You sir, are the most logical, well spoken, and this is by far the best Aggie post I have ever read in my 20+ years reading message boards.

I wish I could have more debates with Aggies like you!

No love lost for you Longhorns, I'm afraid. But you guys put your money where your mouth is, and win more often then not. I can grudgingly respect that, even if I would still always rather root for A&M. That's probably how one gets Battered Aggie Syndrome.

no way, I disagree.. that’s your school and you are loyal to them, win or lose.. That’s what makes college sports what they are.. or at least what they were..

At the end of the day, at least you didn’t attend Missouri. BTS must be way worse..
