If the 90's never happened, you'd be sucking his dick for the run that he had LSU on from 2008 - 2017.

Not winning multiple titles doesn't mean he wasted talent.

I hate the revisionism of Mainieri’s tenure. The baseball program was consistently elite for the better part of a decade, bookended by two CWS Finals appearances with one title. He may have held on a bit too long, but not every coach can be Skip Bertman.

There are no people like this, this a strawman just created by people who just gratuitously bash coaches for not winning the title every year against people the would defend those coaches record or simply suggesting they should not have been fired earlier.

I can give you links.
They absolutely wanted him reupped and have posted shite about Jay every time something negative happens. There’s a thread this morning about being in a fricking wedding if you want an example. Go look at that motherfricker’s post history back when Paul was still here. Then there’s motherfricker that keep posting about South Carolina when they won all those games. That fricker is another one. I can keep going.

Same shite for looked

But SCe is a total rebuild. Gonna take 2, maybe 3 seasons to get it back

That’s another bullshite cop out. Not with NIL. Not with his name of being a Hall of Famer. Make no mistake, when he left LSU it was a rebuild because they had no fricking left handed pitchers at all on the staff. Sure they had some freshman
Yes, Johnson took them to a fricking regional finals.

So he didn’t have senior night during the week? So a group of parents didn’t give him grief after that senior night game? I personally know one of those seniors who was not able to have his parents there because it was on a week day.

Sorry, broski, I am dead on balls accurate on this one.

There were a lot of good players on LSU's rosters from 2011-2016 and LSU was losing regionals to Houston and Stony Brook or going 0-2 in Omaha.

Was senior night during the week in ‘07? Or whatever year he started here?

I know I am petty. And I will admit that Paul was much more respectful of the program as time went on. But that is not how he started his career here.

Because, like the rest of the LSU fans, he actively and rightfully hated the seniors on that 07 team.

The lack of talent and just pure entitled assholes we were filling out the lineup with in 06 and 07 was awful.

So I am right. Just because you and Paul hate a group of players does not change any part of what I said.

You're reaching so hard baw.

You are making a sweeping generalization about how a dude viewed a program that he coached at for 15+ years.

You want to hear some Skip stories that make that seem tame?

Nah. You are just defending your friend. Nothing wrong with that. All I said is that Paul started his time here in the wrong way. I made it a point to say that he was better later in his career here. You just dug your heels in to defend him. All good.

Skip built this program. That comparison would be crazy. Even though I know very well that Skip definitely had an edge to him that not too many know about.

In the end, you and I probably agree on way more than we disagree.

Well he was a very successful coach that won a lot of games, that doesn’t mean people like him over the program, that’s just nonsense. Now I know people root for players. There are a lot of LSU/Bengals now Commanders fans. But no one was a Paul Manieri fan over LSU

And there were people that did that with Manieri that do it with Kelly, that did it with Les and even Saban

Sounds like either a troll or a So Carolina fan

Why take a dump on PM? He won a championship at LSU and played for another title, made it to Omaha a few other times, and ran a clean program. His time at LSU ran up and it was time to move on but he cleaned up Smoke’s mess and set the table for JJ.

Stony Brook was a Super and they had 8-9 guys that played on the cape. I know this is a shocker but other teams have good players too. Baseball is not football. If the players don’t hit in Omaha what exactly do you want the coach to do? A pitcher hurts his arm and needs UCL surgery in 2017, how is that coaching? We hosted 6 straight Supers from 12-18 Made 3 CWS, lost one in the finals. Trust me no one is more unhappy that we didn’t win than the coach.
