Kendall confirms it’s Kirk

[BBG817]

Hoping he can keep Dechant as well

Good morning from #CollegeStation !

That must be the bubble manufacturing plant in the background....

Purke. It’s IMPERATIVE that this hire is a proven recruiter and preferably that has recruited Texas. I would give Justin Seely from the old Aggie staff a look.

Seely would be interested from what I’ve heard

 

[Punter1]

I would not do that.

Any idea who if any from his staff Schloss takes to Aggie???

I haven’t heard of anyone.

Go get Josh Eleander from Tennessee. Former Frog

 

[y2kFrog]

I haven’t heard of anyone.

At least our assistants (new HC) have common sense…

 

[Westsider]

Now if someone will give me a Too-Early-to-Say lineup for 2022, I’ll call it a wrap.

Helton - doesn't Mo know him? he can teach us to hit....

 

[TooColdU]

And with Mo staying

 

[Punter1]

Yea...maybe I don't realize his full value but between the batshit crazy baserunning approach and the 2 min between pitches Zen cool down, I'd be happy with a new hitting coach...

 

[FWSTC Hfrog]

I’m a little concerned because we don’t know how he’ll be as a head coach. Build a good staff and he should be fine.

Let’s make a run to Omaha next year.

Replacing 4 out of 5 of the infield positions doesn't set up well for a run to Omaha next year. Patience the 1st year will be needed. A 3rd. place conference finish would be a very successful year in my book. Will be interesting to watch what tweaks KS wants in his program.

Hiring Kirk Herbstreit to be our new baseball coach seems like an odd move to me.

I think there will be substantially better infield play from the recruit we met and reading his background. A tall, switch hitting SS has been a long time coming.

 

[Armadillo]

You must be new here.

Nice press conference. It is fairly obvious that Kirk Saarloos hung around TCU for one reason: He wanted this job. I wish him all the success he could hope for in a long career here.

Not sure all of those is a bad thing

Anyone who has lost a Dad could certainly feel Kirk’s emotion. And probably anyone who hasn’t.

If you watch any of the videos put out by Keith Saarloos talking about the relationship with their Dad, Larry, you can tell he had a profound impact on the boys, family and faith is absolutely the center of their lives, and he would be incredibly proud of Kirk..

Purke still has a year of Grad Asst remaining

maybe we get lucky and the 3rd paid asst gets passed this year.

But for now we need someone that can help a new HC, preferably that has a lot of playing experience in areas KS and Mo don't - not someone figuring out how to do their job also.

Pretty sure John DiLaura is a serious contender to be the 2nd assistant/recruiting coordinator/defense & catchers coach
