Latest News: Just In Texas Longhorns Baseball, Head Coach Just Confirm His Departure. See Why…
Texas Longhorns Baseball Fires Head Coach David Pierce
Following the Texas Longhorns’ season-ending 10-2 blowout loss to the Louisiana Ragin’ Cajuns, speculation about the program’s future intensified. Specifically, questions arose about the fate of head coach David Pierce. Just weeks after this defeat, it was confirmed that Pierce’s tenure with the Longhorns has ended after eight seasons. This decision precedes Texas’ move to the SEC.
Texas Athletic Director Chris Del Conte stated, “After the season, Coach Pierce and I had some time to visit about the year, the future of our program, where we are, and where we’re headed. It was a difficult decision for us both, but we have mutually agreed that we should make a change. I am so grateful for Coach Pierce and all he has poured into our baseball program for the past eight years. He is an incredible person, and I’ve truly enjoyed my time working with him. I appreciate the passion, pride, and steadfast commitment he had for coaching and working with our student-athletes and am thankful for all he’s done for Texas Athletics and our entire university community as our head coach. I wish Coach Pierce and his family the best in the future.”
Opinions varied about Pierce’s departure. Some felt it was time for a change, while others believed he was fit to lead the team into the SEC, a more challenging conference than the Big 12. During his eight seasons, Pierce achieved a 297-162 overall record and a 101-71 mark in Big 12 play. His teams made six NCAA Tournament appearances out of eight seasons, excluding the 2020 season canceled due to COVID-19. Three of these appearances led to the College World Series, including consecutive trips in 2021 and 2022.
Despite these achievements, Pierce couldn’t secure a championship, and the team had regressed since the 2022 CWS appearance. The Longhorns reached the Palo Alto Super Regional in 2023 and went 36-24 (20-10) in his final season before going 0-2 in the Big 12 Tournament and being eliminated in the College Station Regional.
Pierce commented, “(Chris Del Conte) and I met after the season and we mutually agreed that the best thing for the program was to go in a different direction. It’s been an honor and privilege to lead this program for the last eight years. It certainly is a time I will always cherish as a coach, and I am so appreciative of The University of Texas for the opportunity. Thank you to Longhorn Nation, the fan base, our support staff, student assistants, and the media who covered us so well. I especially want to thank the coaches and our former and current players who helped us win a lot of games and represented our program in a first-class manner. Thank you all for your hard work, dedication, and commitment to Texas Baseball. You will forever be in my heart, and I look forward to continuing to cheer you on in baseball and beyond.”
The next significant question is who will succeed Pierce. Given Texas’ prestigious baseball program and the upcoming conference switch, Chris Del Conte is expected to make a notable hire.
