I think it’s Aranda. Not that this is a bad thing.

He is winning at Baylor. Just needs a good OC and we ready to roll.

He has a good OC, and one that is very familiar with LSU and the SEC

Would love an Aranda hire

At this stage, this is my preference.

My question (on the other thread) is does Aranda choose LSU?

If we get Riley or Aranda, we dominate the SEC for years to come. I really think an Aranda hire would put fear into the rest of the SEC

I wanted aranda when they hired O. I still want aranda. More than Riley. An aranda hire is probably more risky than a Riley hire.

I kinda feel like Riley has been figured out. If the talent on both teams is equal or close to equal Riley tends to lose. I’d still be happy with a Riley hire but I’m team Aranda.

With Matt Rhule’s recruits.
Starts “15” seniors.
His first recruiting class was ranked #50
This years class is #38
He was LSU’s worse recruiter.
Woodward will not hire him.

He's been my first choice all along, I'll be thrilled if we get him.

I'm worried about USC though.

Was listening to The Brandon Walker College Football Show last night and Brandon said “As an alumni of a school that plays LSU every year, I hope they hire Lincoln Riley over Dave Aranda, because Dave Aranda would absolutely wreck shite at LSU.”

Unless Scott is really throwing smoke I have seen very little to indicate LSU has made any serious inquiries into hiring Aranda. I hope that's the case because I see Aranda as a guy who could provide stability and consistent success at LSU.

Doubtful. But he’s the best coach we’ve had since Saban.

You do realize a #38 recruiting class for a team that went 2-10 last year is pretty good right? Not even to mention at Baylor? I’m not saying he’s the best recruiter to ever walk the earth, but LSU sells itself and the sell goes a whole lot easier when you have a guy who knows what they’re talking about trying to make the pitch.

Did you go look at Rhule's recruiting rankings at Baylor? wasn't like he set the world on fire.

2017- 40th
2018- 29th
2019- 35th

So not much different than what Dave is doing now. This is not to say Dave is an awesome recruiter, but to say he was given all this talent is not accurate.

I will be equally happy with Riley or Aranda.

Heck, at this point, I’d be slightly happier with tFolder.

Either way, we win big.
