Why would Aranda stick around to serve under a cheerleader?

All these pro O people keep talking like Aranda staying is a shoe-in.

Aranda has proven to be an Xs & Os genius. He's got probably a top 2-3 D in the country and that's with players that don't fit his scheme and a million injuries.

O made common sense moves that the Rant has been screaming about for years. I give him credit for that, but Aranda should be beneath a guy whose primarily responsibilities are recruiting and not butting in to what the coordinators are doing?

Aranda leaves, then what? LSU is screwed. Aranda is the man for the job. No HC experience? So what? Dude is smart enough to find good assistants while leading the D.

well, lets see how Aranda does when all of this senior leadership and nfl early entrants leave......godchaux, beckwith, white, adams....didn't even include neal, bowers, Jefferson, Thomas. Let us see how great he is then.

You are naive and ignorant. You don't begin to understand 80% of the responsibilities of a head football coach, especially at a major university.

Really huh a million injuries? I have been really impressed with his tackling abilities. I have been even more impressed that he stopped Auburn from scoring 6 TD instead of 6 FG. But, wait, did Coach Aranda's defense possibly improve when the interim coach determined there was no need for the defense to scrimmage 80 plays every week?

I would imagine Aranda has aspirations of becoming a Head Coach. Part of building your resume is who you have worked under, as in who has influenced the way you will organize and run your program. That's why you see so many Saban assistants hired, not because they are supposed geniuses, but because they have worked in and understand the greatest "process" in CFB.

That (along with high salary) is why aranda chose to work under miles. Also for the chance to show his stuff against kiffin and other SEC offenses while having top teir talent.

I don't know that O does for him what a Jimbo/Herman proven head coach would do.

Without a large buyout I could see him joining Herman in Texas for that reason if we don't make a big hire. Just my opinion.

Dude has done well everywhere he's been. This is really an ignorant post. He's made top defenses with less talent than our backups. Our defense is gonna be done under Aranda

Why'd he sign on to coach under Miles?

Well let's see, it certainly wasn't Les' coaching acumen

To work under the manager of what has been considered one of the top programs of the last decade, one that has produced more players desired by the NFL than any other. One that has high graduation rates and low rates of off the field incidents. One that has been widely successful in its recruiting approach.

There is a lot more to running a program than X and Os or clock management, I don't think aranda came here to increase his knowledge in these aspects as much as to have added exposure in the others it takes to run a top program.
Every HC's process is just their personal combination of all the different head men they have worked under. The more you are exposed to the more you have to choose from. Saban took a lot from Belichick, Miles took a lot from Bo.

thats what Ive been saying... dude aint staying on a staff in which he is smarter than the head coach.. aint happening.. only way to keep him is to go out and get Fisher or offensive guru.. Aranda has proven he can keep people out of the endzone..

CEO respects Aranda and will go to bat for him in regards to raises or whatever for him. CEO will let Aranda do his thing and get him the best talent with which to work. I really see no reason for Aranda to leave any time soon. He can do what he loves to do which is to coach defense. He's still young and has made no indications to be a head coach any time soon as Fisher did when he was at LSU.

Tom Herman with not two full seasons as a head coach is a proven head coach?

I agree. I can't say what aranda will do for sure, I think O would fight for him and Aranda has everything he needs to produce an absolutely elite defense here.

He already got to soak up how miles ran things and the effects of the tweaks O has made.

Im just providing an additional way to view things from a coaches perspective.

idk about you guys, but if I was the superstar of a company and had to work for a boss that couldn't tie his shoelaces correctly I'd be looking for a job elsewhere.
