Is Aranda the next Saban?...

I know it's too early to tell, but everything points to this guy having the ability to be a great head coach. It would make me sick if we could have had him and passed him up just because he lacks the 'experience'. As long as we keep the defense as good as it is, any top flight OC would be jumping at the opportunity to come here. I'm all in for Aranda.

Great coordinators don't always equal great head coaches.

we dont know much about aranda besides the fact that he's a fantastic DC.

The reality is it will be hard to keep him.

make him the highest paid D.C. ! He deserves it.

There's no way of knowing that at this point in time. Putting myself in the shoes of an LSU fan I would want Alleva to hire Thomas Herman as HC and then make Aranda the highest paid DC in the nation. I would then offer Coach O a significant pay raise to be the recruiting coordinator. Jimbo doesn't scare me at all if y'all hire him. I believe Jimbo's best days are behind him. Jimbo should be dominating the ACC every year with the advantages he has in recruiting base in Florida and the resources.

Will Muschamp, Kirby Smart...
Two DCs turned head coach that are struggling hard.

I don't get the idea that just because he's a great D coordinator he will automatically be a great HC. Two completely different skill sets.

I hate to break it to you, but Saban is probably the best college football coach ever
im not exaggerating because i refused to believe it for a long time, but his combination of recruiting skills, game knowledge, attention to details, and gameday coaching puts him head and shoulders above the rest
Urban Meyer is one of the few coaches that can challenge him and I still dont think Urban is as good as Nick
The point is this, the likelihood of Aranda being "the next Saban" is extremely slim just because of how good Saban is
thats no knock on aranda, the guy appears to be a defensive guru, but to put him in the same conversation with nick saban as far as being a head coach is concerned is at best too early, and at worst ludicrous

I don't think so. Mostly because of personality. Aranda is very quiet and reserved. He's like the mad scientist behind the curtain. He's a genius, but i don't think he's got the personality to be Saban. That's not to say he wouldn't have success as a HC one day, I just don't see him having that much success.

We want Dave!!

The downside with Aranda as HC is that most HC don't call their won plays.
So you aren't just getting Dave Aranda's defense.
Look at Strong. He was an incredible DC, and he just had to fire his DC mid season to take over it himself to save his job.
