"I have spoken to a number of players and former coaches, and this is generally one of the first things mentioned about what separates Aranda from others in the business. He obviously has one of the great football minds in the college game right now and still maintains a stack of notebooks with plays and ideas that he's acquired from years as an assistant."

Both of those speaks to his ability to be a DC, which I have doubt about.

I have no idea how good of a recruiter he is, his ability to handle the media, boosters and all the external shite that goes with being a HC in the SEC, his ability to assemble and lead a team of coaches. It's all an unkown, many a great "football mind" have failed at being HC.

No. He's the best defensive coordinator in the country. Why put him at head coach?

Which is why I said, he has the "mind," "upside," and "potential" to get consideration for the job.
