Wow - A&M just hired away TCU’s Schlossnagle, who’d been there 18 years:

Scuttlebutt is that TCU is looking hard at the Dallas Baptist coach

Is Dallas Baptist looking at Texas?

I thought he wasn’t interested in leaving DBU. A lot of people have kicked those tires over the years. I thought it would be Saarloos stepping in for the frogs.

This is why Hocutt (Tech A.D.) signed Tim Tadlock to an effectively life time contract about a week ago. Aggies were sniffing around and Kirby put a stop to that.

No such thing as a lifetime contract, but it is a good thought.

Unless you’re Kennesaw Mountain Landis.

That’s what they’re calling it:

As I said, there is no such thing. Either party can end it. He can stay for a lifetime only if both sides want it.

So much good baseball!

Very nice pitcher’s duel in Nashville b/t Kumar Rocker and Gavin Williams: 1 R, 6 H, 23 K combined in the middle of the 7th.

Vandy got the only run of the game earlier on a bunt single, 2B, FC.

It’s a nice change from the football scores we saw during the regionals.

Vandy gets an insurance run without hitting the ball out of the infield: chopper to the right, pitcher beats batter to 1B but drops the throw; PB; Sac bunt; FC to the infield that the runner barely beats home (ruled out, reversed on replay).

If the NCAA is going to use so much replay, they need to improve the quality of their high speed video and the number of cameras. I see a lot of “could be” overturned but very few “definitely should be” overturned. I don’t think Vandy should get that second run. I couldn’t tell for certain that his hand was on the plate, and Blue was right on he spot with a perfect view of the play.
