Has Aranda signed with Ink Yet?
You do realize that he is still signed with LSU currently for another 2 years. The new deal just gives him a raise and promotion, he'll sign it when he is available to. This isn't the same as the HC search where we didn't have the person already signed.
If you aren't going to trust that Aranda is going to stay true to the his word and the contract already in place, then him signing this new one won't give you any peace, because what's to stop Texas from offering twice that amount once he signs the new one.
Reality is, he's on the recruiting trail trying to build a good defense at LSU. If he wasn't planning on being here, then he would be pulling a Chief and staying in his office all the time.

Normally you would be 100% correct. But these aren't normal times. Everyone knows the importance of Aranda to LSU and it is definitely no secret about Herman & Aranda's relationship and the fact that Texas & Herman are looking for a DC right now and also that UT can pay whatever we pay Aranda and let's be frank even more if they want to.
So until he signs the new contract, or until Texas announces the hiring of a DC, then there is a reason to be concerned!

That is the part that gives me comfort that he is staying because he does seem like an old school guy and will stay true to his word.

that is true, but signing a new contract I would think tells most people he is happy where he is for now and the reality is it probably makes it a little more economically more difficult to hire away which should deter people from trying including Texas.
