Interesting stats regarding Coach Mainieri at LSU:

Overall record at LSU: 129-61-2
SEC record: 50-38-2

If you take out his first year:
Overall: 100-35-1
SEC: 38-21-1

Postseason Record: 20-4

Team Batting Average:
2007 - .256 2008 - .306 2009 - .315

Team ERA:
2007 - 5.10 2008 - 4.11 2009 - 3.99

Team Batting Average Against (pitchers):
2007 - .294 2008 - .266 2009 - .255

And hopefully we are leading after 8 innings in the CWS because the last two years we are 84-1-1 when leading after 8!

Its interesting that our ERA, BA and BAA has improved each of his 3 years. Looks good for the future too.

Yeah I was thinking the Kentucky disaster after they called Ochinko's walk-off homer fair then overturned it. It was in Mainieri's first season.

We lost the kentucky game where ochinko's homer got overturned, we tied the next day because of a time constraint

Yeah I thought that was a good indication that we are definitely headed in the right direction under Mainieri. I also like the 20-4 record in the postseason. As much as he gets critized he sure is getting the job done.
