Not a good idea in my opinion. He seems too stoic,
not very outgoing. A head coaches job involves a lot more than being on the football field. Orgeron is a little rough around the edges but he is a good speaker (if you can understand cajunese), a good motivator and a good recruiter. The football seems better organized than it has been in a long time, so
this speaks well of O's managerial ability.

If we want someone that can relate to Louisiana kids
for recruiting and understands Louisiana culture
(remember 2/3 of Louisiana's population lives south
of I10) Coach O is the guy.

Some people can't see the forest for the trees.

Players don't give a shite if a coach lived in Louisiana. They want to win and get their best chance to go pro. Dumbshit

With Aranda's defensive acumen he don't have to recruit. He would have a staff of recruiters. Kids are already raving about playing in his defense. He puts EVERYONE in position to make plays. It's insane

Every teenager and college football player already thinks he going to be a pro football player.

You're the dumbshit. Everybody says they want a wall built around Louisiana talent. If there's a 6'6" 335 pound defensive lineman in Larose Cutoff that eats raw alligator for breakfast everyday who do you think the family is going to relate to -
Tom Herman or Coach O?

Orgeron can still recruit him as the Dline coach. No P5 school will want him anyway

im sure this totally isnt a fake account so that you can come back later and yell about the "one of us" crowd that barely exists.

I'm not convinced Aranda should be named HC, but this is a terrible argument against someone being a head coach.

"stoic" and "not very outgoing" are how id describe belichick and saban.

Agreed, which is why you won't be hiring our next coach.

Speaking 'cajunese' has literally nothing to do with winning football games.

If we keep playing defense like this, no one will care what he says, or how he says it. The recruits will come and the donors will fawn and write big checks.

Hiring Aranda would definitely be a risk. However, if the powers that be really think he's a difference-maker level rising star, then maybe it's a move worth making. The results so far seem to point in that direction, but there are no guarantees in life or football.

Both O and Aranda would be 'risky' hires.

I much rather take my chance on the guy who doesn't have the established record but has shown how quick he can turn something around, rather than someone with a pretty awful losing record as HC.

Les and nick saban, 2 Midwesterners took back Louisiana recruiting for LSU yet we need a Louisiana guy to relate to these guys?

Saban and Miles both had zero ties to LA and yet seemed to recruit just fine.

This LA guy stuff has to stop.

it's the most ridiculous 'plus' that they attribute to their argument.

let me guess, we'll have an all Louisiana staff to make sure we relate to 100% of this state.

Exactly. I'll never get people who think good coaches need to yell and scream all the time.

oh no, belichick and saban need to relate to the media and have fun with them like O and miles have done.

aranda's demeanor is straight up business and his defenses play exactly like that.

Since 1995, how many "Louisiana guys" have been HC here??? Any issues recruiting during that time???? How many all Americans has LSU had in that span??? Any serious "culture issues"???

The whole coach O logic is becoming comedicly desperate.
