Specifically after he got rid of a bunch of players to bring in "his guys".

A bunch of player's family members and friends went absolutely batshit crazy on the board with all kind of doomsday predictions for Coach Maineri, for about two weeks.

Does anybody remember that?

Seems like a 1000 years ago tonight.

I remember a lot of bashing his first year the way he treated some players on the team. It's amazing how winning heals all.

Lame to bring that up now imo. Lets just all bask in LSU's success, why bring up that crap.

He dared to put quotes in the paper in 2007 about needing to upgrade the talent of the program. A tad undiplomatic to the players at the time ("HE'S THROWING THE PLAYERS UNDER THE BUS!!!"), but nobody could say with a straight face that it wasn't absolutely true.

Well if it was just dumb, mad family members posting crap, why was it that big of a deal?

Yep.
It all gets washed away.
I thought there might be violence there for a while, some people were so angry.
I never did understand it, or even want to.

Oh there was violence, Pimp. It got swept under the rug pretty quickly.

Call me a rantard, but if this team does not win the CWS I will be disappointed.

well everything he's done to this point has been pretty flawless.


if we dont win, and he makes a bad coaching decision, then maybe we can say something.

but if we do what we do, and lose straight up, i will not think any less of PM

Even with the JT Wise screw up, Maineri has been better than we could have expected.

idk if it was a screwup

wise sucked his 1 year under PM, and from what i understand he had a bad attitude

wise leaving was probably the best thing for everyone involved

meh, its almost a joke now at this point the way our team is hitting.


At the time i remember saying that if he let these guys go, and didnt replace them with people that could play, then he wouldnt last long.


But he has done just the opposite in a very short period of time.
