Jesus.. are you Paul Mainieri? Throw the players under the bus and back over them. When a team like LSU loses to a Sun Belt team it’s the coach’s fault for not having the team prepared.


Major difference when a D-1 baseball coach throws a player under the bus and when a fan calls it like he sees it.
I played and my son finished playing college baseball a few years ago. If he would have played for Manieri and PM would have called him out the way he has done numerous kids we would have had words.
But knowledgeable fans and sports writers can see when players don't perform their assignments, including turnovers, missed reads, and failing to get the ball to the open receivers. That has nothing to do with "throwing . . . bus".

Maybe O didn't have them prepared, but I doubt it from an x & O standpoint. They beat us man on man. And again, I didn't see throw either of those interceptions, fumble the ball, or miss the field goal. Not his fault.

He didn't. That Chunn kid was undrafted and we made him look like he was an SEC running back.

There it is again. Look, I'm not trying to be a jerk, I really am not but O is responsible on how the team is prepared as a unit. He is the head coach.

I'm not going to dive deep into this particular game because it's been said a million times.

If you're an O fan and feel like he deserves another, yet another, chance, so be it. That's your choice.

Last season is always there and he looked completely lost at the SEC media days. But if he wins consistently, as I stated earlier, I'll be right there to eat crow.

And you would have been politely shown the door. CPM admits his mistakes also. It’s why he is successful, everyone is held accountable. Do your job and don’t get called out. What’s wrong with that.
