re: Coach Paul Mainieri is now 5-0 against MS State this season and headed back to Omaha...

I'm not a huge Maineri fan...in fact I'll say it I dislike Paul Maineri as a baseball coach. Now that's not really about how much he wins and loses as it is about how the handles himself during and after the loses and I don't think he handles pitching staffs very well under pressure. However, I will give him 100% credit and praise for getting Poche out when he did last night....that was masterful.

However, to say he should be fired if we go 2 & Q in Omaha is crazy to me. That would mean you would have to give the man 0 credit for the run we are on right now. Which in turn would mean you would also have to give him 0 culpability in the slightly slow start to the season. I think the coaching deserves credit for all of those. In fact I'd say Maineri and Gibbs deserve a great deal of praise for this 20+ game run to Omaha. That's coming from a person that like I said above doesn't like Maineri as a coach and doesn't think Gibbs deserves or earned the job he has. I definitely respect both men.
