The Texas A&M Athletic Department formally introduced Michael Earley as the 21st head coach in program history on Tuesday afternoon in College Station.
“It’s been an interesting week. A lot has happened and I found out a lot about myself. In the end, I ended up where I want to be and I’m super grateful for that, super grateful for all the people that got my back,” Earley explained. “To the players, number one, this is your program. To the former players, this is your program. I am just here to give you everything I have every single day. I will do anything I can for anyone who has ever touched this program, and especially you guys.
“Anything you ever need in life, I’m confident I can help you in baseball, but I think my biggest job is to help you guys in life. I appreciate you guys having my back, getting me in the door and the opportunity to run right through it.”
The players who vouched for Earley’s return include underclassmen superstars Jace LaViolette and Gavin Grahovac, who respectively withdrew from the NCAA Transfer Portal on Tuesday morning.
