Couldn't be prouder to have Coach Mainieri here at LSU, as both the man and the coach. Now this is an amazing stat: "Case in point: The Tigers took off in 2009 after Mainieri had the guts to shake up his lineup to improve his defense, which wasn't turning enough double plays. He moved preseason All-American shortstop D.J. LeMahieu to second base, shifted preseason All-American second baseman Schimpf to left field, and installed freshmen Austin Nola at shortstop and Mikie Mahtook in center field. LSU went 28-5 after Nola took over at short on April 21."
