Updated: February 21, 2013
Described as a detailed, hard-working, players coach by his peers, Tim Tadlock has found success on the diamond both as a player and as a coach.
From starting shortstop at Texas Tech, to helping lead the Oklahoma Sooners to a College World Series in 2010, to coaching a school record 9-MLB draft selection in his first season at Tech, his passion for the sport is evident.
Hes a modest, easy going Texas boy, but hes firm in his coaching, taking boys and turning them into young men. He also gets to do so at a very special place: his alma mater.
For a guy who prefers to avoid specifics, his hope for this season is simple: when the season is over, to know that his team played hard and played the game the right way.
