Those rubes think their hitting coach is taking them to the promised land and somehow keeping all of their talent? Who is he hiring as assistants? Do they not understand that that's who the players will want to work with? Does he even have a network to hire people, or is he gonna be aggie Charlie Strong? It's rhetorical. 

Trev Alberts, folks. Selling ketchup Popsicles to aggys in milkmen outfits all day.

Hey, pay attention. Those are special ketchup popsicles, made with MAROON CARROTS.

But wait a minute...the good ags said we wouldn't get anybody with this staff! Schlossnagle wasn't even the "real" coach, it was Early this entire time! I don't understand 

This coupled with the Belyeu news from OTF, it seems our OF is complete. Now, go get that SS from Louisville, the 3B from Ole Miss and a few more pitchers.

Based on knowing nothing. I expect another OF from the portal, pitching, a catcher and a few IF. I think it's a 1B visiting us tomorrow. Long way of saying my guess is we end up with 8-10 portal additions going into fall ball.

Maybe none now and that’s just fine.

Yep. They have some great players, but a mass migration of their top talent to Texas wouldn't feel altogether right to me. We seem to be doing just fine, as you say, without them.

I'd feel a lot better on our end if we got an actual quote from Max B. about coming back.

Maybe I missed it, but any idea why Kennedy is looking to transfer out? Despite his weak batting average, I thought he had decent potential.

He already picked K State.

Just a guess, but I bet he was told that he would be competing for a job w significant competition

Yeah, this is my thought too.

Kennedy was committed to A&M as a sophomore in HS and was essentially let go when Schloss took over. So I don't think he was too interested in going through that again at Texas.

Man the speed at which the players are moving is amazing.

We have to want Jace or the freshman of the year no? 

Obviously

I’m willing to bet he stays.

I love it. The pitching staff is being entirely revamped, and not just with one-year guys, either.

These are students, young guys. They have friends they made while playing at A&M. If they didn’t already know, I bet they figured out tout suite, that if they portaled to Texas, out of all the schools they could portal to, their A&M community would come unhinged. Crazy social media attacks, weird responses from everyone they know…

Easier to go somewhere else.

Also baseball players/parents are way more likely to fall into the cult than other premier sports. Would have thought we could get at least 1 but this hire was much bigger than adding their players. 

I think they will have a solid year 1 with the returning production but is gonna be real hard to recruit in Texas when we get to a Super or better and they are stuck with a young coach with no real experience.

No HC experience and very little as a full time assistant.  Betting that guy will be gone in 4 years; he will be in a race with Trev to see who is fired first.

I got this vibe from the violet.  Sooo much eye black.

stupid sip, didn't you know that Earley was actually the one primarily responsible for recruiting and roster building?

Maybe those inverted bat wings are showing love for the folks back home...in Transylvania. 

Probably worth a look just in case Kilen falls through

 

Interesting thought. His head coach is going to be an assistant at A&M: positive. A&M just made the finals of the CWS and seems to have much of that team coming back: very positive. A&M has a green head coach but he's Christ-like: Maybe positive. Aggies: Well, you know.

And, they wear too much makeup

They are still two years away from getting to campus, but our 2025 class is freaking loaded. Even if they just bat .500 on the draft risks it will still be a program changing class, especially on the pitching side.

So. Haven't been around lately. What's been going on?
