Texas A&M baseball takes huge step and makes Schloss look foolish yet again

Texas A&M baseball is approved for huge expansion for Blue Bell Park, showing Schloss's feigned excuse for leaving was insufficient

When Texas A&M baseball returned home from the College World Series last summer to find that their head coach had bolted in the dead of night, fans were wondering what the reason could be. Well, I should say, outside fans were wondering about it— the Aggie faithful had a lot of other things on their mind.

Most neutral third parties could see just how scummy this move by Schlossnagle was, especially after former players exposed his past actions towards them. That didn't stop the Texas media spin machine from attempting to get things rolling in their favor, but this time it didn't work.

What their excuses amounted to was a lack of commitment by A&M to improved facilities— ironic, given what the Longhorns are dealing with in that regard. Of course, actual program insiders have insisted all along that there was never a question that A&M would be improving the facilities at Olsen Field and Blue Bell Park— if Schloss's departure did anything, as a matter of fact, it hastened the fundraising required.

Now, that project is taking some huge steps. As a first move, the Aggies have approved a new player facility to be added to Blue Bell Park.

That's not all, though. According to Kendall Rogers of D1Baseball, the renovation of the stadium is the next domino to fall, which will take place in 2026.

Conceptual images of the player development center have been released, which you can view in the tweet below.

Official images are no doubt soon to follow.

The Aggie faithful always knew that this was a program that A&M has been committed to building in a big way, despite the calumnies of the former coach. This is the first big step along that road— one that leads to A&M being a national baseball power for years to come.
