Everybody get it out of your system. You're pissed about baseball. I get it. Hell, I went to both games they were hard to watch. And I too needed a strong drink of Jack when I got home. Im with you. We lost. It happens.
So go ahead and be pissed, but when you're back to reality and not spouting emotional hyperbole, let move forward to 2016 baseball.
A couple things to consider in the meantime...
1. We lost a NCAA-leading 9 players to the MLB draft last year. Most teams would have to rebuild and likely not make any postseason. We made the NCAA tourney as a 2 seed in a major rebuilding year.
2. Mike Bianco leads his team to the NCAA tournament at a higher clip than Calipari leads UK to the NCAA tournament.
3. He did/does both 1 & 2 with an unfair allotment of scholarships. Bama, Auburn, and MS State have the same issue. Go look at who's been the best program over the last decade. I'll give you a hint. It's Ole Miss and its not close. If Bianco was given the advantages that LSU, Florida, UGA all have, we'd have a national title or two by now. So instead of calling for Bianco's head, use that energy to lobby for a fair playing field in SEC baseball.
If a change needs to be made on the staff Bjork will make it. We know that by now and should trust him and Bianco. But nevertheless, spout your frustrations so we can move on. No need arguing with each other about what can't be fixed. What's done is done and taking a page out of Game of Thrones, "FOOTBALL IS COMING..."
