In 2014, Tadlock led his alma mater to their first College World Series appearance and received the Skip Bertman Award, presented to the college baseball coach of the year by the College Baseball Foundation.
Tadlock was a two-time all-district player while attending Denton High School in Denton, Texas. He played two seasons at Hill College before transferring to Texas Tech University, where he was the starting shortstop for two seasons. Tadlock graduated from Texas Tech in May 1992, earning a bachelor's degree in physical education. In August 1994, Tadlock earned a master's degree in education from the University of Texas at Tyler.
Tadlock joined the Red Raider coaching staff as the associate head coach under Dan Spencer prior to the 2012 season. Following the firing of Spencer in 2013, Tadlock was promoted to the head coaching position.
The 2013 season saw the program's first series win over the Texas Longhorns in Austin, Texas since 2001 and broke school records in both fielding percentage and double plays. The Red Raiders would complete the season with a 26–30 overall record.
