Looks like there wasn't anyone at the ballpark to notice.
It was cold here in Georgia last night, so it probably was in Columbia as well. And USCe has expectations of being a great baseball program. So why would their fans stick around, on a cold night, to watch their team lose to Queens?

I liked Paul Manieri, but it was clear he was done when he retired from LSU. If he had decided to go to a smaller school in south Florida I could have seen it. He is getting overwhelmed with what is needed to compete now.
It really never made sense for him to come back in this kind of environment in baseball. USC just wanted some stability (not like they were expecting championships or CWS with him necessarily) and they might have somehow gotten even worse now under Mainieri.
Here are Queen's games last year against power conference teams:
@USCe = 2-7 L
WVU = 1-7 L
WVU = 7-11 L
WVU = 1-11 L
WVU = 3-17 (7inn) L
@ MissSt = 3-9 L
@ MSU = 2-10 L
@ MSU = 3-9 L
@ TN = 3-14 L (should have been 8inn run rule guess they didnt agree to that)
@ UGA = 1-21 (7inn) L
@ UNC = 3-14 (8inn) L
@ Duke = 2-12 (7inn) L
I mean, wow

PAul was mad that he was forced out at LSU
I thought consensus was that he stepped away on his own.

I think he was ready to step away but was also encouraged to go ahead and pursue that as well, ie I dont think if he told the admins he was thinking of retiring they put up much attempt to "save him"

I really thought Paul would be done coaching after 2021. But USCe saw a former LSU coach with a national championship ready to make a comeback, and said "Why not?" This is why not.

I didn’t even realize Manieri un-retired. Terrible mistake. He was obviously tired and done at LSU and the game has passed him by. Very reminiscent of Les to Kansas
Classic Manieri is losing a mid week game to a clearly inferior opponent though
What has happened to USCar? They were so good in baseball in most of 2010s

That was the official statement but not reality.

Everyone knew when SC hired him it was a mistake.

He really left a sour taste in my mouth after 2023 when he went around basically telling anyone who would listen that he recruited most of the players on the NC team.

That picture looks like the PMAC for a MBB game.

Not competitive in NIL
Easy to recruit against a coach who already burned out once
Players find him unlikable
Unfamiliar recruiting territory with a ton of competition

I was told actually they are spending a decent amount of NIL on baseball this year.

As if he did the bulk of the recruiting…

You might survive being beaten by Kings University, but losing to a college from Charlotte named Queens is rock bottom.
Posted on 2/26/26 at 8:41 am to ell_13
and so many on this board wanted to keep Paul M. Really makes you think

Partially true, but guys like Tommy White and Paul Skenes weren't here in 2021. So Jay still had to recruit them once he took over. And get current players to stay, good point ell. And coach the team all the way to the championship.

It was mainly Russian although he stopped posting for a long while after the Tennessee sweep.
