Does Aranda end up back in the SEC?

I could see Aranda maybe fitting at State. They are one of the only programs in the West that don’t demand as much in terms of recruiting if you are a great coach. He may be willing to step up a level there at some point, but so far he hasn’t shown any interest in playing the games necessary to bring in a top 10 class.

Maybe Florida after sun belt billy flames out

Listening to his reasoning for wanting baylor he’s looking for a certain balance in education and values that extend beyond football. Auburn has that weird aesthetic but the boosters are nuts. Def don’t see him at either Mississippi school

I love Aranda but his stock isn’t as high

He had a bad first year, excellent second year and will finish 6-6 this year.

I just hesitate to give an outrageous contract to a coach with one year of a winning record (Mel Tucker)

I hope not. Dave scares me if he ever ends up at a good school.

I’d take Arranda. He beat our arse in the sugar bowl last year with nothing but 3 stars.

I like Aranda, but I’m not sold on him as a head coach. He needs to show some results at Baylor before I would consider him a successful head coach.

Baylor is a Christian school

Aranda is very devout

He ain't leaving, unless he is fired

Maybe as a DC.

20-15 ain’t gonna cut it in the SEC.

Don’t see him leaving Baylor for state, ole miss or Auburn. He is smarter than that. The family and quality of life at Baylor is better and more job security. Baylor itself recruits decent quality players from Texas and the region. I expect program at Baylor to continue to improve with him there and be built the proper way and he will be there unless the program stagnates or some major school wants him down the road , say LSU or Wisconsin.
