Texas A&M hires Jim Schlossnagle away from TCU as new head baseball coach

Texas A&M moved on from longtime baseball coach Rob Childress last month, and wasted little time finding his replacement. After a brief courtship with Texas Tech coach (and Tech alum) Tim Tadlock, A&M has officially hired TCU’s Jim Schlossnagle to take the helm in Aggieland. The story was broken by D1baseball’s Kendall Rogers (an Aggie, coincidentally) late Tuesday night.

According to Rogers, the hiring of Schlossnagle will be accompanied by a significant budget to fill out the rest of the coaching staff as well.
