OM is a big baseball school.


Only since Bianco has been there, He has twice the postseason appearances than the entire program prior to him getting there. He has EVERY Ole miss season with 45 or more wins, every single one. All but 1 of their 40 plus game seasons, all but 3 of their 35 plus game seasons. Never won less than 30 games (Covid season excepted 16-1 covid season) and never had a losing season. Lets not pretend Ole Miss isn't much much better since Bianco got there.

Bianco has more advantage there than most programs.



Nonsense. There is a traditional baseball school in Mississippi and it isn't Ole Miss. The last time Ole miss won the SEC prior to Bianco, a Manning was the QB and it wasn't Eli.


And FTR, I do not think Bianco is the coach I would prefer. But he is a good coach and has done well at Ole Miss due to his own efforts much more than any tradition or advantage Ole Miss has afforded him.

Yep

Ole miss was never a big baseball school. That’s typical rantard Roger talking out his arse.


Bianco has built that program to a new level. I don’t want him here, but to act like he’s not accomplished a lot there is ignorant

While MSU has a longer history of baseball success, let's not act like Ole Miss is "resource deprived" in 2021. Nationwide VERY few schools in the country give much of a shite about college baseball. Ole Miss is ABSOULTELY one of those schools that does. As such, they have been willing to commit significant resources (relative to college baseball as a whole) to the program. Hell, Ole Miss in the top 4 of attendance every year.

This isn't football. The resource gap between OM baseball and LSU baseball is pretty small. Which is why it makes little sense to say "well, look at what he's done at poor Ole Miss. Imagine what he could do at LSU?!" That is a reasonable argument in football. Not baseball.

There are no financial inequities keeping Ole Miss from being every bit as good year to year as any of the other top SEC teams. The reality is that while they have been good under Bianco, they haven't been great. "Why" is probably multi-factored. But I think it is ridiculous to say it is Ole Miss that is holding Bianco back. And I think it is equally ridiculous to think that just because he's at LSU he would be able to accomplish things he hasn't in 20 years at Ole Miss.

He's a good coach. LSU could certainly get a much worse coach. But to act like he is a "superstar" just being held back by little Ole Miss is dumb.
