re: Ain't no melt like an early season baseball melt

If Mainieri can't coach this team to a deep run in Omaha then the money is being wasted and Mainieri is not giving Alleva his money's worth

EXACTLY.

1. only 1 team in america returned more talent than lsu - tcu.
2. no team pours as much money into baseball as lsu
3. mainieri has 1 omaha win since the '09 championship while several other programs/coaches are doing MUCH better
4. lsu has only beaten one good team this season - baylor

but mainieri wins the sec tournament!!! things are great!! fans have unrealistic expectations

if i were ad, he better win at least 2 games in omaha this year and even that would be disappointing given the above.
