My take on this.... since you clowns asked....
I certainly don't fault Schloss for taking another coaching opportunity. I don't even care that much that he's going to texas. I don't personally think going to Austin is a step up from a job standpoint, but it doesn't matter what I think. If you think that job is a step forward for your career, knock yourself out. That what you SHOULD do if the opportunity comes along.
What has pissed off Aggies isn't that he left, or where he went... but how he did it. It's one thing to leave, but it's quite another to set the house on fire on the way out the door. Taking the entire coaching staff and actively recruiting players off the A&M roster while you are still employed by Texas A&M isn't just low class.... it's shows a complete lack of integrity and ethics. I get that this is a business and that coaches, admins and certainly players are just hired guns. But that - at least recruiting aspect - was over the top.
I'll also add that the horns announcing the firing of Pierce during the CWS finals despite him long since being gone, and then leaking out the rumors that Schloss was a candidate was equally low class. But at least in their case I've long since come to expect that type of behavior.
