Burnt orange expectations are sky-high as Zeke & Zonk kick off the new year with a special in-depth episode featuring Texas Baseball head coach Jim Schlossnagle. Coming off an SEC championship season, Schlossnagle breaks down year two at Texas, early-season practices, roster changes, leadership development, and what it really takes to compete in college baseball’s toughest conference.
The guys dive deep into player development, pitching culture, roster limits, portal realities, and the evolving landscape of college baseball—from scheduling strategy and SEC challenges to future rule changes and stadium renovations at Dish–Falk Field. Schlossnagle also reflects on his coaching tree, the grind of the SEC, returning to College Station, and how college baseball continues to move closer to the professional game.
After the interview, Greg and Keith wrap things up with their “Get Out of Town” moments, NFL playoff reactions, and a nostalgic discussion about offseason preparation as former big leaguers get ready—mentally at least—for another baseball season.
College baseball is back, and it’s never been more exciting.
