Texas ranking revealed in USA TODAY Sports' Baseball Preseason Coaches Poll
Texas Baseball has secured the 13th spot in the USA TODAY pre-season coaches poll. The poll, released on Monday, features Texas A&M, an in-state rival and a new conference rival, as the top No. 1 seed. Fans will recall that Longhorns Head Coach Jim Schlossnagle served as the head coach at Texas A&M during their College World Series run last spring. Texas is ranked 13th overall and 8th in the SEC in Monday's USA TODAY poll.. The Longhorns will kick off the Jim Schlossnagle era against Louisville on February 14 at Globe Life Field, as part of the Shriners Children's College Showdown. The first pitch is scheduled for 7 p.m. at Globe Life Field. Two significant differences lie ahead for the Longhorns. Firstly, a new conference brings with it new opponents. Secondly, the dugout will witness a change as David Pierce, who parted ways with Texas after the 2024 season, will be replaced by Jim Schlossnagle, one of the sport's elite coaches. Schlossnagle and his coaching staff have high expectations, particularly the goal of returning to Omaha.
