Members of the 12th Man weren’t the only ones criticizing former Texas A&M head coach Jim Schlossnagle on Wednesday as Christopher “Mad Dog” Russo aired his grievances on ESPN’s First Take.
“What a fraud!” Russo said. “Five minutes later, he signed a contract at Texas! So he’s sitting there and he’s basically telling the media at Omaha what they can and cannot ask, and yet, he knew the AD at Texas, so he had that deal done long before Texas A&M lost in the championship scenario! So he’s sitting there making deals with Texas, loses in the finals to Tennessee, and then when he gets asked a question about the Texas vacancy, he basically reams out the media! Try that in New York!
“That is a disgrace! He knew the AD at Texas! You don’t think these two guys were hand-in-hand for a long period of time? And then he’s basically killing the poor kid who asked him the question about the Texas job? I mean, I understand it was five minutes after you lost, but by the same token, you had the deal done before the finals even began!”
Nine Aggies entered the NCAA Transfer Portal on Wednesday.
