I was not an Aranda fan and was elated to see him move on

What was it about him or his defenses that made you not like him? His halftime adjustments were legendary. And his defenses got better as the year went on because he was constantly adjusting to optimize the talent. Compare that to what we have now and last season which is zero adjustments and zero clue why things are going bad.

I guess I just don't understand how someone can look at Aranda and what he did and think "this guy isn't good". I know you already admitted you were wrong, but what was it that you were thinking at the time?

My biggest problem with Aranda was he allowed teams to dictate to us, which allowed most teams to drive down the field in scoring position. My biggest problem with Aranda came during the Alabama game. After we score, Aranda leaves Stingley one-on-one to cover Smith and no help over the top. Alabama immediately notices it and throws right over the top for a touchdown. No way Stingley should have been left on an island by himself against the best WR in the country and Aranda didn't make the adjustment.
