Travis Chestnut shares his perspective on former leadership at A&M

[@delay181]

Chestnut was magic when he got on base, he was a household favorite of ours!

[@spencergambrell7819]

Right!? It was like any time he got on base, he was almost immediately on third. He has the speed to steal at any time and it caused soooo many errors from opposing pitchers just by making them think about that.

[@sapacif]

Sad story. Thank you, Travis Chesnut, for the interview.

[@randychandler9145]

It's amazing that Douchenagle treats players like that and has reached the level of success that he has.

[@TSNWA]

Apparently, that's what happens when your program lacks a winning tradition.

@lisaowens4627 Not sure about loyalty with 11 in the transfer portal, with 6 of those that started in Omaha.

So the real side of schloss comes out.

[@hobonickel840]

I'm a Vols fan but Chestnut's bunt double was one of my favorite plays of the game ...luvd it!! Also in regards to Schloss, I observed a man that had major issues with the higher ups or the org gatekeepers . Hard to ignore this org hired AD Ross "Homelander" Bjork whos drama reached it tenacles out all the way to Kentucky. This would have bled out across the entire organization and Schloss seem to have the best intrest of players when replying to the reporter. Imagine if he had said .. "hell f@@k yeah I am!" Let's also not forget $76 million dollar turds 💩 roll downhill at some point

[@colepriceguitar1153]

Knowing how coach v and his players behave, it makes sense how awful schloss’s character is.

[@markbrandenberger2381]

Watched him for 2 years at Temple. Always played hard and did his best. My son said he was a great teammate and tried to help everyone anyway he could. Don’t remember Mac ever getting on to him, either. If you know Mac, he’s not afraid to let a player know when he’s messing around.

[@carlosgarza1962]

Great job Travis and all the players. A special team for sure. Hope the rest of the players come back. This team can make it back to the world series. Looks like the team had great chemistry. GIG EM!!

[@JosueSolis-o3w]

It’s incredibly heartbreaking hearing the horror stories of this young man. He clearly is not performing at his peak DUE TO THE COACH’S TOXIC ATTITUDE & behavior. It’s very concerning for the players development and psyche that he was never held accountable for this. What a sham that he was allowed to do this without accountability from A&M. Maybe this is A&M’s fault for hiring a guy who is a salesman and not a good role model. This team should have won. They were better. Their coaching staff was just not there. Fear based coaching is not effective. Very very sad situation. I feel so bad for all the players. Just based of this one interview you could see what low character he has and HOW IT DID AFFECT THE PERFORMANCE of his players. Very very sad but also not surprising by this coach’s crummy move to leave for tu.

Can't believe Nuño didn't give this poor kid a hug

[@johngremillion8663]

I loved it when Chestnut bunted for the hit in the CWS and then stole 2nd and 3rd. Aggie version of the "Ricky triple"

[@lesliedupre4357]

This interview made me so sad!!

[@Flaco...0]

We need HEB in Cali 👊

[@theNfl_Esq]

Jim did dog him out after the bunt saying he strikes out a lot

[@Rainy_Day12234]

The rumors had to distract the players.

[@texasaggie8449]

I’m sorry our team had to put up with Schloss now founding out what a poor leader he is. Y’all deserve better. I have confidence A&M will make a quality hire. God bless and Gig’em.

[@theNfl_Esq]

Most of us knew about the same time that Taylor Hamm went public that it was happening. So there’s a slim chance that everyone wasn’t aware. Especially Braden, etc

[@colepriceguitar1153]

They probably knew it was possible, but didn’t know it was happening until they saw it on the internet.

[@jagtechsystems4036]

Good luck tu baseball with the coach. The A&M boys were the ones that had each other’s back . Terrible role model as a coach !

[@justinlethco7562]

These young men flipping to Texas or being recruited by Schloss need to hear these players out along with former TCU players and coaches and really think about the man they are committing themselves to go play for. In my experience, this is top 3 scumbag coaches I have ever seen in any sport

[@ChrisC-bm7sp]

actually heartbreaking listening to him speak

[@kevinak-d1x]

Didnt he just hit the transfer portal?

Poor leadership and coaching mentality by Schloss. Seeing Coach Vitello do the opposite and support his Tennessee guys who might be slumping a bit makes us love him even more. Best of luck to this young man. Drive on.

[@colepriceguitar1153]

Vitello at least has that part down. He apparently doesn’t teach his players sportsmanship.

[@ChattNCC]

@@colepriceguitar1153 “ * A&M made a very furious run ($$) for Tony Vitello. It shot its shot, but TV stayed put and loyal to a program that has given him the keys to the castle.” Guess your AD wasn’t too concerned about Vitello’s sportsmanship either.

[@colepriceguitar1153]

@@ChattNCC your right, and that disappoints me

[@devisedbydev2764]

Huge difference. Just watch the body language and facial expressions of Schloss. Says everything. Vitello? He would probably lead the sprint to an all out brawl!

[@joeyoungmighty]

Well, this explains a lot behind the teams slump and there is reason why Schloss hasn't won a title. Glad he's gone.

[@robertmachen4364]

Slump because the head coach completely checked out after the georgia game which is when he cut his deal with Texas.

[@randymcmurphy2308]

"I didn't expect it". That's weird, Carter Karels did a podcast saying "everyone in the dugout knew" 😆

Schloss enough said. He had little to do with this team's success and glad that everyone k now realizes who he is as a person. A&M made him and CDC looks like absolute fools at the end of all this. 1st year HC Earley....outmaneuvered the Hall of Fame Schloss? Texas fans hired a well known snake.

[@kevinr5187]

What’s the deal with all these kids getting tattoos now days? I was in the military and never got one, it used to be a military thing it seemed like. Btw the way coaches are inherit liars. It’s all about the money he never went to A and M, there is no allegiance.

[@jasonkates]

Kid's talking out of both sides of his mouth. Brauny trying to lead him to what the fans want to here.

[@TSNWA]

Little brother is so sad 😂😂😂😂

[@colepriceguitar1153]

We’re happy. You can have a morally bankrupt coach, he’ll fit right in in Austin.

[@jzander2966]

It's a done deal............get over it! When does a major coaching change ever go the way it should??? There are always hard feelings so it's nothing new. This is the way life is nowadays! Was only partially listening but this guy whined and whined and whined. Can't stand whiners.

[@mohnjayer]

As a Vols fan, this dude’s bunt double in the CWS was one of the most frustrating plays I’ve probably ever seen against my boys. Credit to him 🫡
