re: Bianco asking ump if we threw at his batter

Bianco is a pretender. Check his record over his time span in Oxpatch? Keep in mind he got there when only really LSU, S. Carolina and Florida were pushing baseball with real cash support. Ole Miss is 2nd fiddle to Miss State and a long, long way from LSU in baseball. For all their cheering, 1 trip under Bianco to Omaha. Check with guys who played with Bianco and his players -- he is far from a genius, real far. In fact, many ex players I personally know (I graduated from LSU in 1989 and 91) expressed concern of Smoke Lavall II if we had hired Dumb Dumb.

Is Maneri the best coach in the country? No. But, he is pretty damn good. Has he worn out his welcome at LSU? Maybe? 4 National seeds in 4 straight years ain't bad. He is due a national championship or at least a good showing in Omaha but Bianco is no upgrade
