Sure, but lets not confuse A&M for Texas. With all that talent down there, they had only won their regional 3 times and gone to the CWS 4 times prior to Childress. A&M baseball like everything related to A&M is overrated.

Kind of shocking the lack of success they have had historically in baseball.

Super Regionals
Prior to Childress - 3
Childress - 6

CWS
Prior to Childress - 4 (2 were in 1951 & 1964)
Childress - 2

They did end up with a better coach, but he dipped out of there in 3 years to their Arch-Rival, lol.

You left out aTm hosted the 2 of the 3 seasons after Childress was fired; 5 seed in 2022 ended up in the CWS & 3 seed in 2024, also advancing to the CWS plus the title game. So what took Childress 16 seasons to do, Schloss did it in 3 seasons.

Also, there wasn't Super Regionals before 1999 so that's kind of irrelevant. 48 teams advanced, not 64 and it was conference tournament > regionals > CWS. 6-team regionals were no joke back then; you had to win a minimum of 4 games in 5 days, as an undefeated team throughout to win regionals, or win 5 games in 5 days if you happen to lose a game. Now, you have to win a minimum of 3 games in 3 days plus 2 more the following weekend. Not sure which is actually tougher, but I'm sure a strong argument could be made both ways...

I'm not the one that said, "Must know something about tournaments." The response was a joke, not a dig at Rob in any way.

Chill bro, I said they ended up getting a better coach. Childress does know something about tournaments, he won 10 conference tournaments in 25 years. Seems pretty good to me.

Anyways, I was more shocked at Texas A&Ms lack of success more than anything. Not sure how a team that is in a state stacked with players has such little success.

I'm chill, just added context to your misleading data response.
