FILE - Texas A&M head coach Jim Schlossnagle watches warm-ups before an NCAA baseball game against Florida on Saturday, March 16, 2024, in Gainesville, Fla. exas A&M will play Tennessee in the best-of-three College World Series final beginning Saturday night in Omaha, Nebraska. Both teams are seeking their first national championship in baseball.
"Although I know many will be upset with my decision, I chose to make a change to join a longtime friend to continue my career as a college baseball coach," Schlossnagle said in a statement released by Texas A&M. He worked with Texas athletic director Chris Del Conte when the two were at TCU together from 2009-2017.
He leaves to take over a Texas program with a deep history of success and six national titles, but none since 2005. Schlossnagle replaces David Pierce, who was fired on Monday after eight seasons with the Longhorns.
