Bucky McMillan assembling formidable recruiting staff in College Station with addition of Frank Haith to Texas A&M
Bucky McMillan looked at first to some Texas A&M basketball fans as though he was a second choice. The Aggies made a big swing when they pursued Chris Beard from Ole Miss, and when that didn't pan out, they pivoted to McMillan pretty quickly.

While McMillan wasn't the guy at the very top of the list, though, Aggie fans are really bought into what he's doing thus far, such that many fans may already be unwilling to swap him for a guy like Beard. Not only has he energized the fanbase with his infectious personality, but he has the Aggies right in the middle of some extremely high-profile recruitments.

As McMillan continues to build this Aggie roster from the ground up— in case you weren't aware, the Aggies had all of one player on the roster when he took the job— he has assembled quite the staff in order to help him do so. The latest addition to that staff is former Aggie assistant Frank Haith, who comes to Aggieland from Austin.

(BV editorial note: HMMM..."Austin?")

image.png
Haith is known as an elite recruiter, being responsible for snagging the commitments of players like LaMarcus Aldridge. He has SEC experience, formerly being the head coach at Missouri from the 2012 to the 2014 seasons.

He ended up resigning from both there and his tenure at Miami (FL) amidst NCAA investigations for recruiting violations, but the practices of which he was accused are now all but legal in this massively changed landscape of collegiate sports.

His reputation as an ace recruiter will help the Aggies massively as they attempt to flip this roster and remain competitive in an SEC that suddenly finds itself in a basketball arms race. The Ags can't get left behind, but after losing so many seniors and undergoing a coaching change, that's a big ask. McMillan has handled all of the pressure well so far, though, which is more than encouraging.

 

This is beautiful:

Texas A&M football held their annual Maroon and White spring game this past Saturday, and fans by and large were generally satisfied. There was a lot of dominance along the defensive line, as only one projected starter was logging major minutes on either OL, but other than that, there were quite a few nice moments from the game.

One thing you can safely count on, though, is that someone will come away from a spring game like this with an opinion that will have other fans throwing their hands up in the air. And true to form, that's what we got out of this year's edition as well.

It wasn't the greatest day we've seen out of Marcel Reed in Kyle this past Saturday, but he was by no means bad. However, ever since the New Mexico State game this past fall, there has been a seed germinating in the minds of a certain section of the fanbase— one that began to be expressed when Reed didn't look like a world-beater in Saturday's game.

image.png.95e84017cee7d988c39e4fc085a1eb34.png


Look, I'm as high on Miles O'Neill as anyone. I loved what I saw out of him on Saturday, and he looked impressive against NMSU. His physical talents are clear, and his future is bright as an Aggie.

But we need to pump the brakes here a little bit.

Reed's dynamic run ability adds a dimension to the offense that O'Neill doesn't have. And while the size and arm strength that Miles boasts outclasses Reed overall, Marcel is actually not that far off when it comes to his ability to sling it.

It wasn't too long ago that one of the big concerns with Reed was the fact that he was drilling his passes into receivers at too high a rate of speed. He's gotten better at throwing with touch, as his overall game really improved by leaps and bounds down the stretch of last year.


The size could be an issue with regards to durability and consistent accuracy, as he needs to generate power in a way that won't make his pass spread look like it's all over the place. But in that respect, too, he came pretty far in the last part of 2024.

The consistency factor for the team, too, should not be overlooked. Reed's experience isn't massive, but this team has gone years and years without an adequate amount of experience at signal caller. I think Aggie fans everywhere are ready for that to change and for A&M to finally boast a seasoned vet in the pocket.

I was not for starting Marcel over Weigman at first last year, but it became clear he was the right choice. Just because that happened last year doesn't mean it needs to happen this year. Marcel is the starter and he needs to be the starter. If something happens, it happens— but for now, there's no need at all to rock the boat.

Wow, sounds like aggy is as fucked at QB, as Graham is at reporting it. Trying to tamp down the usual aggy fan overconfidence in the backup QB - "has the potential to be a top 3 QB in CFB" while at the same time damning with faint praise the starting QB. Yep, sounds like it might be another long and interesting season for aggy.

Now watch them do nothing in the portal at QB and just think that it is all going to get appreciably better over the summer. 

I really don’t feel sorry for the situation that aggy is in. Hopefully just keeping up to the mediocre norm of barely above .500 FB.

Hook’em!!!

I would like to know which players he recruited were “like LaMarcus Aldridge”.

A list of those players’ names would be appreciated.

Is that the bastard love child of chinpubes and graham?

Chin pubes and listeater most likely.

The emotions towards Jim Schlossnagle among Texas A&M baseball fans shifted drastically and rapidly towards the end of June of last year. A man who had, up until that point, been held in high regard in College Station thanks to his work with an A&M baseball program that was failing to reach its potential, was suddenly public enemy number one in Aggieland.

It would be easy enough to point towards the mere fact that Schloss left for the Aggies' chief rival in Texas as a reason for why this shift occurred. That in itself would certainly curry a fair amount of animosity towards the man.

But to point only to that would miss the context of exactly what happened, and therefore miss the reason why the vitriol now runs so deep towards Schloss in College Station. As the Aggies gear up to face their former coach for the first time, here's a reminder on what exactly went down with Schlossnagle's departure.

Why Texas A&M baseball fans still have so much anger towards Jim Schlossnagle
The 2024 baseball season was a renaissance for the Aggies. They went undefeated out of conference, and despite a slump towards the end of the regular season, they absolutely went on a tear once the postseason started.

The Aggies didn't lose a single postseason game until they made it to the College World Series final. They swept their regional and super regional and took care of business in Omaha expeditiously.

However, underlying this great run was constant chatter from the outside. A dissatisfied Longhorn fanbase was waiting to fire David Pierce, and many fans were making overtures towards the fact that Schloss would be the top target for the Longhorns.

This made sense, on one level. Schlossnagle and Texas AD Chris Del Conte were close when both worked at TCU; that connection was a big reason that Longhorn fans considered the Aggie coach a primary target.

Given the Longhorns' penchant for attempting to spoil big moments for A&M, it was no surprise when David Pierce's firing was announced on June 24, 2024: the day of the rubber match between Tennessee and A&M that would decide the national title.

As we all know, the Aggies came out on the wrong side of that one. It was an emotional time for all Aggie fans; the dream of a national title that seemed so close— so eminently achievable— just days before was suddenly dead in the water.

At this same time, the chatter of Texas making a run at Schlossnagle, especially given the announcement of Pierce's firing that morning, was growing ever louder. In light of that, Richard Zane of Texags, who talked regularly with Schlossnagle on Texags Radio, asked the then-Aggie coach about that chatter without naming specific names. Schloss's response was fiery:

https://x.com/barstoolsports/status/1805728706171719786


As the above tweet says, though, the man left for Texas less than a day after this interaction. That eventuality casts a whole new light on this answer.

This means several things. It beggars belief that Schlossnagle really felt this strongly about staying at A&M but was convinced in fewer than 24 hours to take the job at Texas; in reality, it should be obvious that this is something that was in the works for far longer than that.

It can be reasonably inferred, then, that the topic of taking the Texas job was broached by Schlossnagle in conversations with Del Conte while the Aggies were still making their postseason run. Given how tantalizingly close the Ags got before losing their final two games, this meant that A&M fans were apt to wonder how much those conversations may have affected the coach and team's focus in those final games.

Now, I don't really buy into the idea that the Aggies lost the College World Series because Schloss was checked out. But the timing here looks really bad for him nonetheless.

There were also intimations made by Schlossnagle after taking the job at Texas that the Aggies didn't do their part to keep him, but those were slapped down by the Aggie athletic department.

In short, it's more than just the fact that the man left A&M for Texas. It's that he clearly made plans to leave while a historic postseason run was underway for A&M, got out of dodge less than 24 hours after vehemently denying he was leaving, and casting aspersions on the way out.

This weekend's series is the first time this team will face Schloss as the coach of Texas. With the above context, it shouldn't be hard to see why this one may be more emotional than normal.

Here's another refresher:
