re: List the reasons why you want Dave Aranda

And beyond being a good coach, he is a coach who has shown willingness to grow and evolve. Last year, he was one of the worst in the country in terms of managing FG/Punt/4th down strategy--consistently being hyper-conservative and consistently leaving points on the board as a result. Basically, he was head coaching like a defensive coordinator. This year, he has completely changed up and consistently has shown smart, modern, aggressive decision-making ability.


The important thing isn't even conservative football versus aggressive football--it's the fact that he had a very clear weakness in his approach, and he has made a deliberate, conscious effort to improve upon that shortcoming. This is the same quality that makes Saban the GOAT.
