That's the Miranda rights. The Aranda rights apparently involve having the right to remain penless.

It's ok, being a pessimist must be miserable. You'll never understand or be able to separate emotions from logic. You vote for Clinton?

I am a lawyer and I have been involved in the negotiation and preparation of executive level contracts. In my experience, it takes more than a couple or few days. As a general rule, the parties and/or their agents or representatives negotiate the principal terms...amt of compensation, length of term, benefits, bonuses, etc. Then the parties hand the term sheet to their lawyers (or they may even send an e-mail summarizing the terms) and say "draft a contract based on these terms." I can promise you that term shpeet or e-mail will not gave all of the necessary information, just because questions may pop up that the parties did not cover or think about. Then one party's lawyer sends a draft to the other party's lawyer....more questions, points of clarification, etc. it just isn't as quick and easy as it sounds. And that is especially true for a high-compensation, high-profile contract. People want to make sure they have it right. It just takes time.

Oh it takes all of 1 hour to review this type of contract and sign.

Aranda is a very hot commodity maybe the hottest DC in the country and nothing wrong with dragging his feet a little. I promise you with his past connection with Herman that they have been in contact with each other.

I think and hope he stays with LSU but until the contract is signed anything can happen.

When I bought my business we had agreed on general terms easily. When it came to signing contracts, it took a couple months with expensive lawyers bickering over small details and redrafting the contract over and over. When it came to drafting working terms for me and my partner, we said "frick these lawyers" and worked for decades together on a handshake agreement.

It freaking doesn't matter if its signed. He's under contract right now and the new contract won't be ratified by the BOS until January so it not a binding contract until then

For every story like yours, there are hundreds where people end up fighting and losing tons of money in litigation because nothing was memorialized. You think contract attorneys are bad, you don't want to have to deal with litigators.

Exactly, how many terms could actually change:

1. compensation
2. length of agreement
3. buyout which may have a team listed at a different value

That about sums it up

This thing needs to get signed. Alleva can't be this blind to the hajida this is causing the fan base. They're already worried about the orgeron hire. You can't have this hanging out there. If Aranda leaves, Aleva is gone the next day.

There may be a sticking point in that contract that is not acceptable to Aranda.

This dragging on for a considerable amount of time may not bode well for LSU.

The contract lacking 1 signature? That's just very odd.

I didn't read anywhere that the missing signature is Arandas.

Nice try, but I don't think you understand how it works.
