Blaming the players as usual for their woes.
“ Can’t get the big hit, can’t make the big pitch, etc etc when needed. Never once said make better coaching moves!!

Never heard him say that.
Also there’s a big difference between saying “can’t” and “might not”.
Leaves himself an out with might not lol

I read that in the paper this morning and I really didn't sense that he was throwing anyone under the bus, just stating facts.

I believe my eyes and ears. Saw him on WAFB sports throwing the players under the bus, as usual. This isn’t even a rare occurrence with him .

Oh BTW it is called the Rant. Maybe for people like you they should change the name to the Pollyanna

Here are some quotes from The Advocate...
quote:

“I know we have the players to be competitive,” Mainieri said, “And I know we're a little bit snake-bit right now. I just know it's a pitch, it's a play, it's an at-bat here and there. We obviously have the ability to hit the pitchers in this league.

“But at a critical moment in the game when we need to get this hit, we're having a strikeout when we need to put a ball in play. When we need to make a key pitch, we're missing our spot just a little bit. Or a decision we make is not quite working out for us.”

quote:

“I'm not going to give up,” Mainieri said. “I'm just not going to. It's not in my genes to give up. I'm going to keep working hard with the guys, and we're going to try to stay positive and get these kids to keep believing.

“What good does it do to give up? What good does it do to be down on them? What good does it do to throw in the towel? We're not going to do that. We're going to keep plugging away and believing something good will happen.”

If you're getting "BS excuses" and "never his fault" out of that, you're looking to twist things into that.

There are so many things to criticize the man for right now. You don't have to twist things into what you want them to be.

Just sad. It's déjà vu all over again with Paul. Same song, deuxieme verse--i've heard that before.

PM will be judged according to our record and how far this team goes. Making up BS like this as a reason to get rid of him is dumb. The record speaks for itself.

Maneri has made midweek games fun again, at the cost of SEC games, but rant was upset about losing midweek, so he solved that....

So sick of the soft arse tipping toeing around people’s emotions. Who gives a shite if he is throwing the players under the bus. 1-5 in SEC play is certainly PM’s fault but it is also the players. They can’t hit and can’t pitch in big situation. The truth isn’t throwing them under the bus. It is the truth. If the players don’t want to hear their coach say that shite to the media...make plays and win games. If we can roast the coach in the media, why can’t they players be roasted? They are DI athletes.
