It didn’t blindside our AD, apparently. They knew back in May. And the TA reporter was given the leeway to ask the question to see how he would react. The fans knew nothing. It became apparent last night to the entire fan base when he got off the bus and just made a beeline to the building. Wasn’t even wearing Aggie gear.

I should have realized what a PoS he was when he left TCU for us in the same manner. Good coach. Terrible human being. He will fit right in at Texas. Am I pissed? Yep. But this team is bigger than Schloss the Snake.

I would say CDC probably paid a little visit to Schloss during the SEC tournament and floated the idea.

Negotiations probably took place from there.

This was done back in April. When Texas reached out to Vitello as well.

Definitely got the sense there was not much love lost between Vitello and Schloss. 24 hours ago I would have thought Vitello was the issue. What a difference a day makes.

Why?

Did TCU deserve better when TAMU got him in 2021?

Are people not allowed to change jobs?

Right. He knew his coach had accepted another job and was illegally working for that job while still getting paid by your AD. And your AD just went along with it for 2 months. You realize how dumb you sound right?

I think the lack of ethics by Schloss was very offputting to Vitello

I found out this morning from a booster friend at Texas. He’s been telling me this was done for weeks (told him that would be stupid). He gave me the details this morning. We were had by that PoS. He’s already asked Snakey that the A&M series next year be played in Austin. He knows what happens when he comes back to CS.

Dude is yanking your chain, if someone actually told you that.

But then you were also saying that Schloss and CDC weren't friends just a week ago.

It’s well known in HS baseball circles. Schloss has been recruiting for Texas since May. He also told the players he wants to take with him. It will be interesting to see if they go


Oh ok, so if it was "so well known", why didn't you or anyone else say anything until AFTER Schloss left aggy? Not a word from you until today when you got your feelings hurt. I'm sure that you didn't have a problem when a&m hired Schloss away from TCU. Get over it. Schloss left a&m because took a better job. Plain and simple. Just sour grapes and butthurt on your part.

Because I am not connected to Texas baseball. Apparently the entire recruiting class knew weeks ago. None of the players recruited for A&M will play here next year. Schloss and DelConte played this for maximum damage. Weiner and Nolan Cain were in on it as well.

I hope they all go to MLB. Montgomery’s mother has some choice words for Schloss on Twitter …

Again, the logical questions are why did everyone keep it a secret and why doesn't A&M have a replacement lined up?

Vitello was upset he didn’t get the big offer from Texas

Makes you wonder what's going on behind the scenes at A&M.

You had the Sumlin mess, then multi year Jimbo trainwreck.

Now the entire baseball staff supposedly took new jobs in the middle of the season and was actively conspiring against A&M.

Meanwhile, the Aggie AD knew all of this and not only let it happen, but they don't even have a replacement lined up.

No wonder Nate Yeskie wanted out.
