Over the last 5 or so years at the very first sign of trouble in basketball or baseball the Fire our coach people come out of the woodworks. Are the same people wanting to fire both coaches or are some pro Ak anti Bianco or visa versa groups as well?

I wanted to fire AK in Marshalls first year. Now I'm firmly behind him.

Yes. Before you know it they will be asking to fire Freeze.

I've been on the fire AK train for a while, but never wanted to fire Bianco. I'm now tentatively behind AK, and my status with Bianco obviously hasn't changed.

They're idiots.
Kennedy is as good of a coach as Ole Miss can ever hope to get in basketball. We dont have a history of going to the tourney or going deep in it, or of getting players to the League and our current arena sucks arse.
Bianco, skirp's comparison to Mullen aside (Bianco has actually beaten good teams), got us to be a nationally recognized name. We have guys from fricking Washington. His only big issue was getting over the hump in Supers, but now he's over that hump and got us to the last four standing.
I think all three of our big sport coaches are great and I hope we keep them as long as they'll have us.

I've never been on the fire Bianco crowd but I've been on the fire AK group. Bianco built our program to be Omaha or bust. AK has built the basketball program as a bubble team. If Freeze built the football program to be a constant 8 to 9 win team and never won the west it would be the same thing Bianco dealt with before last year. I don't think anybody would call for Freeze to be fired if that happened.

I've never thought Bianco should be fired and the people saying that he should have been are more insane than the ones calling for Kennedy's job. Ole Miss baseball is what it is today because of Mike.
I have said before I thought Kennedy should be fired but I've recanted that statement.

Maybe?
I still think you can never fire Bianco enough. It's good luck.

Andy Kennedy is the best coach in America

both coaches have experienced success at Ole Miss. More than most any coach before them.....and we have folks that have called for their heads (I was one of those idiots btw with Kennedy) But rule one....You can't fire a coach unless they are leading a program to failure...neither has not remotely done that yet. Need to embrace both of them.....for a long time. :

I was on the fire Bianco wagon prior to Omaha because he had regressed for years and looked like he would never get over the hump. We have no excuse not to be an Omaha team every 4-5 years with our resources and fan support. However, I've always really liked the guy and was extremely happy that he was able to finally pop the cherry and allow us to keep him.
Kennedy still doesn't have my full support. Yeah he's been able to keep our dreadful program mediocre, but I grow weary of the multiple inexcusable losses every single year. Only being able to land a 12 seed with the veterans we had two years ago was laughable, and he only got that after a miraculous SECT run. His comparitive success has also been masked by a floundering and completely inept league as a whole.
Honestly it's selfish to expect anything else out of him with what he has to work with, but I personally don't like having that attitude.

I've never wanted to fire AK. We have never had a really bad year and we have had some good years with him without being able to recruit. He will be special with a new stadium IMHO.
Bianco I really don't care......
