re: I don't understand the Mainieri hate

there have been several notable incidents that have been documented on here throughout the years. Please don't act like this is something you've never heard of.

Oh, I've heard of it on here.
That doesn't mean it's true just because someone on the Rant says it.

since 2010, 10 programs (with their current hc) have played more cws games than lsu. 2 other programs have played as many. that is absolutely not acceptable for the premier program in the nation. lsu should be as competitive in omaha as anybody, especially over a 7 year period and that has just not been the case.
i am curious to see if this postseason is more of the same - the tigers peaked too early. i certainly acknowledge that mainieri has been the most consistent in the postseason in that he's avoided the lows that some other coaches have gone through. however, i find it pitiful that this is the best thing he can put on his resume during that span. hey, i sucked the least.

This dude here. What about from 2009. This frick tard always chooses 2010 for his stats

The hate is for the lack of success in the postseason. One win in Omaha in 7 years isn't acceptable . You don't have to win it every year but a NC every 5 isn't unreasonable for a program of LSU's status. 13 team should have been CPM's second title

watch how he has allowed Bush to piss this game away
c'mon man; he hasn't "allowed" Bush to do anything. pitching is a position of skills but also emotions and brains. a pitcher has to make adjustments to grow. PM's approach is to give his pitchers adequate time to do that. you don't like that, fine. but to expect and demand him to be able to know the future is unrealistic.

No, it doesn't. Start from the beginning of his tenure, 2007 if you want to be fair.

Beau Jordan and Cole Freeman give Coach Mainieri a surprise ice water shower after the game Saturday night.

Those people are idiots. I live in Alabama and when they lost to Clemson, some fans were talking trash about Saban. Unfortunately, there is a segment of population that will always be idiots no matter what the situation. You can't please those that have no brain!

"Anyone with baseball knowledge"? Coach Dunn has run a MLB's entire pitching program, from the minors up to the big leagues, for years & years. In addition, he has been college baseball's National Assistant COY. CPM is in the College Baseball's HOF, has won the SEC's COY several times, won numerous SEC regular season & tournament championships, a NC. Safe to say both have "basic baseball knowledge". And just for shites & giggles, what is on your resume that makes you more knowledgeable than either?

It is pretty convenient that your standard of success is winning a few games in Omaha, but not winning the national championship. So you like to cite Florida and TCU. Yeah they have won a few mostly meaningless games in Omaha. Of course they are 0-forever on what matters there - winning a title.
A better standard for measuring success is how Mainieri has fared in the toughest conference year in year out. Has anyone been better? If so, who? He has been overwhelmingly successful there. Winning the conference should always be LSU's primary goal. Of course the ultimate goal is winning it all. That is just gravy. And we know how hard and far away that can be. Just ask TCU and Florida, for example.

winning a nc is amazing but, the programs who are consistently competitive at the cws are the clearly the best. they are winning the most at the highest level. the fact that this needs to be stated is just astounding.

Just ask TCU and Florida, for example
