Yet he hasn't done shite in the postseason since 2009. Hmmmm





sheesh, I don't think anyone is trying to anoint Maineri has a top 3 coach, but at the same time a CWS appearance and super regional appearance doesn't exactly constitute "hasn't done shite".

LSU was a key error from possibly its best shortstop in school history away from beating the national champ in Omaha, but shite happens sometimes. The bunt scenario in that game was a frick up, yes, but everyone quickly ignores the critical error Bregman made in that game.


I will agree he needs to make some noise this postseason, but I strongly disagree that "he hasn't done shite" since 2009. Great baseball programs like State, Texas, Ole Miss, Arizona State, Florida State, and even Florida would kill for the consistency Maineri has given LSU.

given the money and resources at his disposal, he has underachieved, pretty significantly. his tenure is now known more for stony brook and houston than a distant national championship. and those were 2 of his best seasons. otherwise, it's been pretty dismal.

The only currently active coach that even comes close to PM/LSU over the last decade is Corbin at
Vandy.

Paul Mainieri is easily the #1 or 2 best coach in the SEC. Also probably a top 10-15 nationally.
