Has Aranda done anything as DC to instill confidence? He has been a replacement level to a slight downgrade from Kevin Steele so far.

I say let the new coach come in and bring whoever he wants. If he decides to keep Aranda, then that's fine, but he shouldn't be forced on the new coach. That's the quickest way to chase away a lot of good candidates is to start naming terms and conditions on who he can and can't bring in.

Defense has been great so far given how much time they've had to be on the field

Great recruiter, makes adjustments, has put together a good defense in just 1/3 of the season. Why would you not want him?

Our DB play has been suspect. Maybe Raymond needs to be evaluated.

His defense kept the mighty Auburn offense out of the endzone

The D has been great.

He also literally just got here.

Auburn didn't score a TD.

Especially considering the injuries (and nie Godchaux siteeation) up front, the D has been very good. Tackling hasn't been great at times but as a unit they are playing well. Beckwith is having a great year.

These threads are why people think you are retarded.

Allowing 4 touchdowns in 4 games isn't really that bad.

scoring defense has been excellent.


Defense has been soft up the middle
A lot of blown coverages
Young talent in backfield is underwhelming

He doesn't have a lot to work with up front in my opinion. Our two deep line isn't near what it was in the past. People don't like to hear that but it's true. Even with that I don't think Aranda is that special. Maybe it takes time to switch systems. Lou Tepper said it took 3-4 years for his to work.

Either way, I don't see him coming back next season.

Through 4 he has yet to give up more than 20 points and our pass rush is on another level.

We might be s bit softer between the 20's, but that's going to happen when you blitz more and focus on creating turnovers. They will get better over time at this.

Sucks for you, Arranda may be around for a lengthy stay.

OK, I'll play this game too. What has Coach "O" done with the DL this year that makes anyone think he is a great coach? They have been driven on like cattle in every game, and have yet to play against even a decent offense.
