How can you have 4 first rounders and not make it to Omaha?

Terrible coaching is the only explanation.

Similarly to how you can go from "the greatest team of all time" to getting throat stomped and giving up a record pass yardage in 1 season to Mississippi fricking state.

Vitello is not a great manager. He's actually terrible. No other way to put it.

He had 4 first round picks.

We’ll see what he can do next year with average talent.

Oh no maybe he’s second? Who cares? Vitello is an excellent coach whether y’all want to admit it or not. LSU fans just sound dumb by acting like he isn’t. I hate Nate Oats and Bruce Pearl but you’d have to be brain dead to say they are bad coaches.

He is indeed. He comes off as an insecure douche. But. I've said it before about Will Wade and LSU basketball, it's a lot of fun being the bad guy. I can see where Vols fans would love his antics and the attention he gets for it.

No reason to melt, he's absolutely a good coach.

Just saying he doesn't have the win percentage lead any longer.

Terrible comparison

The same players just drafted from Tenn were the same ones who didn't make the CWS.

The players from the 2019 LSU football team weren't the same ones from the next season you are referencing.

Pretty stupid post even by SEC Rant standards.

I’m pretty sure he has the highest winning percentage among active coaches but I guess I could be wrong. Whatever the point remains the same. He’s a great coach and anyone who disputes that doesn’t know sports

Because I am a nice guy, I will provide an answer. The baseball draft has ALWAYS been about potential, not proven ability. If I ever get a chance, I’ll reevaluate the 1st round picks in the last 12-15 years and see how many never made it to the Show.

It happens.

This board shites on BK all the time and he has a better win percentage than any SEC coach besides Kirby at current job.
