Aranda finally on record saying he wants to be a HC

He deserves to be. He’s been a top coordinator in college football for years. It’s all about the right fit, for him and his family.

Nick Saban advised Kirby Smart to wait for the right opportunity. Of course it was self-serving, but it was good advice. The mid-market teams were knocking down the door for Smart, but he waited until a blue ribbon team came calling. That’s what Aranda should do. But if he wants that blue ribbon offer, I think he needs to be more outgoing and less professorial.

He probably won't be around much longer. It's not the end of the world. LSU pays coordinators as well as any school in the country and will be able to attract a top notch replacement.

Most of y'all wanted him gone at various points during this season.

He's just sending feelers out and will get mentioned for various jobs but he knows he can do better than UNLV.

I'd say next year will be his last here, it's a natural progression.

Arkansas and Ole Miss had head coaching opportunities open up and was Aranda even considered. Neither one of those schools are top tier jobs but better than say UNLV.

Ideal situation: muschamp gets fired the same year Aranda takes a head job

I really think he ends up at a P5 school that is going to be happy with a 9-3 type season in the good years. I think he will want to implement a system and field a competitive team. I just dont see him recruiting hard enough to be an elite team, but I think his detail, his approach and his football a IQ could be a real good fit at a school like Mich State, TTU, VTech...something like that.

Good. They are plenty of average DC's out there that we can get for less than 2.5 million. BYE!!
