Another player with all the material that Paul couldn’t develop. He was told he couldn’t play at LSU because there was to much talent. Good lord get rid of Mainieri now!

One of Mainieri’s biggest mistakes this season. Who tells an Uber talented kid that.

Not what he said. He told him that he was behind some of the other players which makes sense because they played in the fall while he was focusing on football and the starting outfield was relatively set with Crews, Gio (pre injury) and Dugas/Beloso in left/DH your most experienced hitters coming into the season.

If Hampton would have stuck it out for a couple more weeks he may be the starting center fielder or DH right now.

I’m not a Paul apologist but you can’t really blame him here...Hampton missed all of summer and fall and Paul couldn’t promise he’d play in front of guys who had been putting in the work while Hampton was in FB. I love multi-sport athletes but unfortunately nowadays if you’re not committed to one sport year-round then you’re falling behind.
