That's so fricked up of a coach to say It's awesome. My players suck, but it's my fault because I recruited them.

I think the OP took just a bit of liberty with the quote, but in what way did he truly miss the point. Maybe he should add an "enough" to the end of it.

And for those saying "it's the truth", of course it is. That's not the point. A coach shouldn't be publicly saying shite like this to the press about amateur athletes. He can make his mind known by his actions in the offseason (cutting and recruiting).

If Miles said this about even JJ or Lee the rant would be screaming for his head.

He stated this on TV Baton Rouge. I think some of these guys will throw PM under the bus just like he is doing them. PM will be gone in two to three years. He won a National Title with Smokes players. He may be right about the talent but the buck stops with him at his front door.

When asked if the LSU lineup was a bit "talent deficient", Mainieri didn't back away from the question. "Quite frankly, yes," said the coach, "We don't have the personnel we've grown accustomed to over the last few years. We need to upgrade

Mass exodus after this year, there are some huge rifts in this program
They are all coming to light this year. The true lack of leadership is coming from the HC office

2 things:

1). Let's get the subject changed to something that sounds accurate

2). I thought we were just young. This talent deficiency is a new revelation.

is there a problem with this?

PM comes out and is honest and accepts responsibility. If he would've been all rainbows and unicorns y'all would be claiming the team has naked pics of him. There's no winning with rantards

Agreed, but I think it would have been better if he'd said made this admission to a meeting of major TAF donors rather than to the general public.

Sarcasm will take you far. It's been blatantly obvious that the talent is way down. Pitching is improved from last year, but there are 4 positions that need massive upgrading, both at the plate and with the leather. A blind hog could find a way to generate a run over 22 innings against a very average Bama team.

I'm gonna guess anyone upset with this didn't follow the team in 2007 when he was pretty much saying the same stuff.


I don't mind a coach being honest, Trent Johnson is that way as well. Miles not so much, but thats not a slight against him.

WTF? PM is a chickenshit leader who constantly blames those he is supposed to lead for his own shortcomings. Do you think Eisenhower ever blamed his sergeants or lieutenants when things went bad?

No one should be sticking up for this clown.
