[QUOTE="frogs9497, post: 3018065, member: 3019"] To your point- [URL]https://www.star-telegram.com/sports/college/big-12/texas-christian-university/article252144548.html[/URL] Still, Saarloos wasn’t considered a lock. Somewhat surprisingly, sources said, Schlossnagle didn’t fully endorse Saarloos as his successor. That led some to believe that TCU and Donati could pursue an outside candidate. Asked about not “endorsing” Saarloos, Schlossnagle replied in a text message: “I believe Kirk and Bill were both very worthy candidates, each bringing their own unique skill set. I’m happy for Kirk, the staff and most importantly the players that there will be great continuity within the program. “I have no doubt that the program will continue to grow and wish them nothing but the best.” During his introductory news conference, Saarloos talked about Schlossnagle giving him an opportunity to be the school’s pitching coach in the summer of 2012 and later said Schlossnagle laid the foundation for an elite program that didn’t need to be “turned upside down.” Donati even mentioned he wasn’t overly concerned Saarloos didn’t have head coaching experience because he worked under a coach of Schlossnagle’s stature. “He’s been able to watch and observe one of the greatest coaches in college baseball for almost 10 years,” Donati said. “Jim Schlossnagle is a Hall of Fame coach.” Still, there were subtle signs of friction. Saarloos did not mention Schlossnagle when listing off coaches who helped him along the way. The only TCU coach he mentioned was Mosiello, who is staying on TCU’s staff. [/QUOTE]
