re: Is Mainieri on the hot seat for next year?

There's nothing fickle about failing to recruit well after winning a National Championship 3 years after.

Very good points. Not arguing but clarifying my statement and saying what we all know - that college baseball recruiting is fickle in that your class can be gutted at the last minute. Will be interesting how the earlier deadline rule change this year might change that. Every team can play the "what if" game but if CPM had been able to keep just 1-2 players from pro ball the last 2 years we wouldn't be debating if he should be on the hot seat. This year's class is projecting to stick a little better although we'd all love to see ~4-5 more legit hitters coming in.
