I wish Bianco would go ahead and announce his retirement so we can get started putting out feelers to potential replacements. More than anything though I do hope he gets a nice send off, last season and this one have been awful but he’s our best ever coach and one of the best in SEC history. I know he’s pissed away some extremely talented teams/just gotten extremely unlucky come the postseason (05 Texas, 06 Miami, the Virginia nightmare, 18 TTU, 19 r Kansas, 21 Arizona) but he still got us to that position and we had some great regular seasons.
Dude deserves to have a nice reception from the fanbase. But it needs to happen sooner rather than later so that the atmosphere isn’t toxic and his legacy won’t be ruined in the eyes of some fans (a la Wenger if you’re a soccer follower)

totally agree. It's going to be a damned shame if it comes down to firing Bianco but a major change needs to occur. I don't think it should happen this week in case he manages to pull off another miracle but if we keep getting swept at home against mid-tier teams, there has to be some change.

I agree. His time has come and gone but by winning a NC, he deserves to have a couple of bad years. He basically built our program into what it is now but we need new blood in the program. He's losing at the portal game and he hasn't been able to land a solid pitching staff in years. It would be best for everyone if he would announce his retirement. Make the rest of the season about winning for Mike. Then, make a good hire and bring that excitement into the recruiting season.
