I posted the interview in the Op for a reason. I see a droopy moping pussy making excuses, not a general lighting a fire
I have said it all year CPM seems depressed
I have never watched an interview with a coach after a loss and seen them be chipper. You're seeing what you want to see

Just curious if all these other threads were mis quoted too?
Just like the “there was a fight in the locker room at halftime of the LSU/Alabama BCS NC game between T-Bob Hebert and a team mate.” Total crap that was posted so many times it became a “fact.”

No I'm really not. You go find me an interview from OSullivan, Corbin, or whomever you choose after they've had a loss and you show me how they are showing fire or whatever cliche you want to use for how you think a coach is supposed to act. What you'll see is a bunch of boring coach speak "well that's baseball" or "give them credit" or "we need to do better." They're all generally the same.

I like how he doesnt mention Fontenot got two hits that would have been routine outs without the defensive shifts called by the coaching staff
Honestly, that's probably because Fontenot is missing his spots.

Ole Miss scored 15 runs against pitchers not named Fontenot
Mainieri's team not named Fontenot gave up 15 freaking runs
I understand not liking Mainieri's comments. But, your arguments are terrible.
15 runs in 9 innings...terrible. Yet, nobody was as bad as Fontenot's 4 runs in the 10th. As bad as our pitching was, Fontenot was the worst.

Are you that naive to believe all of his players love him?

Did I say all his players love him? I'm more than happy to acknowledge there are probably players that don't like him, but there are always players that don't like their coach, whoever that may be. Mainieri has coached hundreds of players in his career, so odds would dictate there are certainly players who don't like him. Saying I doubt that most players hate him is not saying all players love him. But I appreciate the leap you took.

quote:
you were doing a little more than that...
I never said anything other than the conversation I've had with former players. Never said anything else about him or the quote that started this thread.
quote:
whoever it was said that his nephew either pitched or is currently a pitcher for Paul and that every time he hears someone say that all the players hate him that he rolls his eyes and says that couldn't be further from the truth.
Not saying this wasn't said. I just would like to see the thread, so I can see the exact statement.
quote:
This is where you and I won't agree. Sure it helps, but if a coach builds the reputation that players hate him, then no players won't continue to come. Many great programs across college sports have done poorly and recruited poorly with poor coaches.
We can disagree with this. I think at the end of the day, it will still recruit itself because of it's history. Once again, you can have your opinion on it, and I respect that.
quote:
LSU isn't the only place elite college players can play and with every game being on TV now, exposure isn't the sell it once was. These players don't have one "fortune 500" offer, they have multiple. All else being equal, if one elite program has a coach with the reputation of being disliked by his players and another doesn't, where do you think said prospect is going to go?
There are a handful of elite programs in the south, which only have 11 scholarships to give out. The elite of the elite are the only ones who can truly choose between 6 or 7 colleges. There again, you can have your opinion and I can have mine.
quote:
Do you really think these elite high school prospects don't know players currently playing? Do you think they don't talk?
Do you really think an 18 year old kid is going to listen to half the stuff he is told, whether by former players or current players? Most of them think, well that won't happen to me.
quote:
That's exactly what you've done here
No, what I've done is give an opinion and have given more information on what formed my opinion. I have said numerous times, everyone has their own opinion and that's fine with me.
quote:
I see Anthony Randaudo, Alex Bregman, among others, come back to visit all the time. Blake Dean talks about how much of a mentor Paul was to him as a player and a coach.
Again, never said they don't come back to town. You don't see any of them tweeting out pictures with PM or saying a whole lot about him. Of course Blake Dean is going to say something like that. He gave him his start in coaching and recruits in Louisiana. He's not going to bad mouth his former coach.

that's right change the subject when you are proven an idiot
your op said "he cost us the game" which is not what was said as several other posters pointed out
don't use quotes that are inaccurate, im going to use a big word now, or plagerized

At 4:48 in the video PM straight up says Fonenot cost them the game. How is anyone arguing against this? PM is a fricking douche bag.

Even your linked interviews you posted earlier are different. Do you not think it’s possible people see CPM as very negative and weak right now after losses, but still think he is a good coach that shouldn’t be fired? You seem to have a very elitist attitude that anyone who sees his attitude in postgame interviews as someone who has no clue

another loser that can't read and comprehend the written word
posted "he cost us the game" which was not what was saidi if the ignorance by some of the posters was contagious the whole world would be stupid
