This is concerning how long its taking. Do they not have fax machines anywhere on the recruiting trail? You know Texas is his phone and texting non=stop.


Just sign and be done with the dramatics.

Why do people still hold up fax machines as the best way to execute a fricking contract?

If you're him and staying at LSU, what's the rush. He's under contract, has a new one sitting on his desk, and he'll sign it when he gets back. Why should he go out of his way because some people on TigerDroppings are freaking out.

Welcome to 1990. Contracts aren't done by fax machine anymore...except the NCAA LOI for some crazy reason.

Same concern here. I was beginning to think about who LSU should go after as the next DC myself.I understand there could be a very good reason why he has not signed other than waiting on Texas but I am not smart enough to know what it is.

Saban had his chance - so how about Pruitt and Kiffin.

You do realize that he is still signed with LSU currently for another 2 years. The new deal just gives him a raise and promotion, he'll sign it when he is available to. This isn't the same as the HC search where we didn't have the person already signed.

If you aren't going to trust that Aranda is going to stay true to the his word and the contract already in place, then him signing this new one won't give you any peace, because what's to stop Texas from offering twice that amount once he signs the new one.

Reality is, he's on the recruiting trail trying to build a good defense at LSU. If he wasn't planning on being here, then he would be pulling a Chief and staying in his office all the time.

He knows that he doesn't even have to say a word and just wait a couple of days. Alleva will probably panic and throw some more money at him.

A year ago, Aranda was making $500,000 and living in Wisconsin. Today he's making $1.2 million. When he signs his extension, he'll be making God knows what.

If I'm Dave Aranda, I'm thinking 2016 was a pretty good year. Hopefully his wife and children like it here.

No, but, Joe Alleva shook his hand on the deal, so, it's a lock. No need for concern.

He signed the wrong lines on the initial contract, they're sending him a new one, but that has to be approved by lawyers a second time.
