TCU baseball coach Jim Schlossnagle is a self-described pleaser.
“I don’t ever want to let anybody down,” he said.
Yet TCU is going to its fifth College World Series this week, all in the past seven seasons, all under Schlossnagle.
He has little reason to think he has underperformed.
“That’s just Jim’s nature,” athletic director Chris Del Conte said. “As he always says, Of whom much is given, much is expected. He’s repaid everything we’ve ever done for him in spades.”
TCU extended Schlossnagle’s contract last June following the Horned Frogs’ best showing in Omaha, a berth in the semifinals.
