I would consider myself a democrat now. Have voted Republican in the past but not anymore since maga took off.
(Especially since you followed that comment with, “I think the word socialist and socialism has kind of lost all meaning with how the right tries to weaponize it.”)

Aggies don't want a coach who took them to their only men's big 3 natty appearance ever?
That seems wild.
It is. I agree. But the sheer loathing Aggies have for that man cannot be overstated. It’s not necessary to rehash the circumstances of the situation, but it was about as shitty as it gets.
JS is probably the most detested (top 3?) individuals associated with the university — ever. So no, he’s not wanted back … under any circumstance.
quote:
But the reasons these kids are coming to Texas are money, money, money, Schlossnagle, Wiener, and Tulowitzski. In that order.
Cain’s job was literally spearheading and coordinating Texas baseball recruiting. He played a significant role in getting players on campus.
I’m not even going to get into a Schloss argument, but many families on the travel ball circuit won’t go near the guy. He’s a total shite of a human being. Obviously there are plenty who are willing to look past it, but many who have played (and coached) with him have “things” to say about the experience.
It’s absolutely no secret.
A&M should never should have hired him, knowing what he and CDC had planned for years. But shame on us (and Ross Bjork) for a lack of due diligence. I’m fairly certain the same mistake won’t ever be repeated.
quote:
I don't really know what the guy did or does. I'm sure he's a fine recruiter but in the NIL era I'm not sure how much that matters as much as the $$$.
Huh? Do you follow your team’s program, or just randomly comment on threads?
Cain is widely regarded as one of the elite recruiters in college baseball. From LSU, to Texas A&M, and then Texas, he produced eight top 10 classes and six top 5 classes.
In his first recruiting cycle at Texas, he signed the #1 class, then followed that with classes ranked #2 in 2025 and #3 nationally for 2026.
He was also credited with landing players like Carson Tinney and Aiden Robbins.
That’s about as strong a two-year recruiting stretch as any program in the country can reasonably expect.

So?! Man, I’d watch the Aggies play in a hurricane if the CWS was on the line (but that’s no big surprise).
The Sooners brought the goods today. Very impressive. :cheers:

I thought Schloss tried to fire Tulo when he got the job
Correct.
JS brought Earley with him to be Texas’ hitting coach. When Earley left 2 days later for A&M, JS brought back Tulowitzki to coach hitters and infielders.

feel like I’m having Déjà vu from when aggy signed that star studded class a few years back. That one didn’t go well. We’ll see what happens with this one with so many big name guys in one class.
Jimbo ? Elko.
Not even in the same universe, as far as player development.

Well, if lsudave1 thinks we should change what we have fun doing, we should get right on that. STAT. And cowbells or an incessant whistler would be much better than bubbles, right?

I will never understand how yall get so amped up for those guys.
Aggies look to them down on the sidelines during football games to signal the next yell, and that’s about the extent of it.

This should tell you all you need to know about how "underpaid" teachers are.
They’re actually one of the most underpaid professionals in our country. Considering their responsibilities, what they’re tasked with and do (and deal with) on a daily basis, and what they’re paid, it’s a wonder we have anyone left who still wants to do it.
There are some really bad educators out there. But you won’t improve the caliber of candidate, or the level of motivation for entering the field, by grossly underpaying the people who perform the job.

Electric match. A hard-fought, blood, sweat, and tears earned spot in the championship, no doubt.
Hope you have fun, Monsusta. Let us know how you enjoy the show. That’s not my jam.
