Dave Aranda Pays Ed Orgeron Big Compliment During Introductory Press Conference At Baylor

by Staff Reporter

Brett Davis-USA TODAY Sports

During Dave Aranda's introductory press conference at Baylor on Monday, the former LSU defensive coordinator had nothing but high praise for Ed Orgeron.

quote:
"I have such great respect and love for Coach O," Aranda said. "When I called Coach O and told him that I was taking the Baylor job, he was so happy for me."

"I told him that I have learned more from him, than any other coach I have been around. His story of hardships, learning from those hardships, applying lessons learned, having success, and then sharing it with a group of men... There isn't a better story than that and I'm so blessed to be a part of that."

Now try to imagine a former assistant talking about Saban like that.

*eyes closed.......* Nope. Still not seeing it.

Still don't know why you would leave a man that's willing to give up part of his salary to give more to you, to instead go on to more headaches and responsibilities. Guess he couldn't make it on $2 million plus each year.

Really ? you do not understand why a HC is better and part of the climb to better things for him and his family

Every man has to forge his own path in life or at least strive to.

I haven't seen Aranda's new salary posted anywhere, but they were paying Rhule $4.1 million. How do you blame the guy for accepting a job offer that will pay him an extra $2 million a year? Not everybody wants to be an assistant coach for life...most have the goal of being the head coach somewhere eventually.

It’s a big step forward in his career you can’t blame the guy.

rbdallas•52 months

Hate the loss, but best wishes. Hope it all works out for him (and his family).

Aranda has accomplished probably what he wanted as DC, a National Championship. Now he wants to be a HC with the same goal. I think most of us can understand that. Thanks and good luck Coach Aranda!

idlewatcher•52 months

Always loved Dave. Best of luck to you sir!

Class act. Hope he does well. Just about every coach dreams about getting to that HC spot at a big program.

Good luck coach! Go win the XII and take over college football in Texas!

Many thanks to coach Aranda for all he has done for LSU. I wish him much success in the future.
