re: Ah look Bianco is getting his arse kicked in a super regional again

He has been at Ole miss for 20 years but what you are saying, in terms of the baseball program, has not been true for 20 years. He has been competitive at a school that really wasn't prior to his arrival.

This has been said a lot, but - objectively speaking - Ole Miss's results under Bianco have been subpar relative to Ole Miss's historical average. Here are the numbers:

The college world series started in 1947. Bianco started at Ole Miss in 2001. Ole Miss went to 4 CWS in the 54 years prior to Bianco and 1 in Bianco's 21 seasons. So Bianco's 1 in 21 falls short of their previous average of 1 in 13.5 years.

It is even worse when you look at conference championships. In those same 54 years prior to Bianco, Ole Miss won 6 SEC championship...equal to one championship every 9 years. Bianco has won 1 (1 in 21 years).

Admittedly, he has run a good program and been consistent, but it's not like he has historically overperformed Ole Miss's average.
