The Texas Longhorns announced the hiring of a trio of former Texas A&M assistants stemming from the Jim Schlossnagle move
The Texas Longhorns announced former A&M assistants Max Weiner, Michael Earley, and Nolan Cain are officially joining the staff. That meansCain, a former assistant coach, was a potential candidate to replace Schlossnagle at Texas A&M after the team's College World Series loss to Tennessee.
The Schlossnagle move was made official the day after the end of the baseball season, on Tuesday, June 25. In his three years with the Aggies, he made it to Omaha twice. Cain will not be Schlossnagle's only confidant making the move. Pitching coach Max Weiner and hitting coach Michael Earley have also been confirmed as new members of the Texas baseball staff. Like Cain, Earley has been alongside the head coach through his entire tenure at Texas A&M, while Weiner just joined in the 2023-24 season after working from 2019-23 as the Seattle Mariners' pitching coordinator.
The news came after not-so-surprising news of the firing of former head coach David Pierce. Texas Athletic Director Chris del Conte believes Schlossnagle is perfect for the job. “I’ve known Coach Schlossnagle for a long time, and there’s no better coach, program builder, and leader in the game, and the best part is he’s an even better person,” Del Conte said, per. “When we were looking for our next baseball coach, we knew Schloss would be the perfect choice, and we are beyond thrilled that he’s joining our Longhorn family.
