Give Aranda and Campbell the reigns at OU and get back to me. We are talking about coaches at Baylor and ISU not OU not exactly the same. Riley was handed a Ferrari and kept it going.

Not familiar with Campbell's numbers.

Aranda? He's been in two CFP games. He won both. That's two more CFP wins than Riley.

Offensive ranks under Riley:

2020: 17
2019: 4
2018: 1
2017: 2
2016: 7
2015: 4
2014: 22 (ECU)
2013: 9 (ECU)
2012: 45 (ECU)
2011: 66 (ECU)
2010: 15 (ECU)


To have a top 20 offense 8 out of his 11 years is insane. Also crazy that 6 of those 11 years he had his offenses in the top 10.


I don't understand how you guys wouldn't want him. We have fricking had awful QB play the past 10-20 years and he changes that completely.

Dave did get handed a 4runner and it broke down year one.

O beat him. Do you REALLY think O is a better HC than Riley? Really?
Aranda beat him. Brady beat him. Burrow and Jefferson beat him, and just scored on him again.

O was a good figurehead though, and to his credit that season wouldn't have happened without him.

I'd love Campbell to be the hire. Riley will generate a lot more buzz and provide an immediate recruiting boost, though. I'll be thrilled with either one and Campbell might actually even be the better long-term hire.

How many has Aranda been the head coach? It’s like basic logic and reason don’t apply here lol.

Riley is a top 3 coach in college. Aranda is not.

Let’s pay Aranda 7 mil/yr to be permanent DC and we're set.

I answered the question that was asked, and I answered accurately.

That's the very definition of logic and reason. The question was made more specific after I answered.
