The future of the Texas Tech baseball program is secure under Tim Tadlock.

After losing Chris Beard to the rival Longhorns, the worst thing that could have happened to Athletic Director Kirby Hocutt’s job security would be for him to lose his star baseball coach too. Rumors began swirling over the weekend that Texas A&M would make a play for Tim Tadlock to fill its recently vacated coaching job, but instead the most beloved coach at Texas Tech is staying put.
