re: What to do with Dave Aranda

Exactly! Why do you think they’re taking so many defensive lineman and pass rushers this recruiting class? O is addressing our remaining personnel deficiencies with some big time recruits.

Lol got any evidence to back that up? I’ll answer for you, no you don’t. Prior to this season Dave Aranda had the best numbers in all major defensive categories over the course of his career in college football. Translation: by the numbers and facts Aranda was the best DC in college football. Now we’ve had personnel issues and injuries plus with Clemson’s cupcake schedule Venables has likely passed him during this season. But even with that Aranda still has better numbers vs Bama than Clemson’s vaunted DC and remains comfortably in the top 2/3 DCs in the country.

Thank god you people don’t have any decision making authority.

The first half was one of the most incredible halves of defensive football I’ve seen in several years considering the competition. Second half was bad.

He’s been very good. Not irreplaceable. However outside of second half of bama and Texas he’s been very good and in the current era of college football it’s about as good as you can ask. We aren’t draining clock every possession on offense to minimize possessions and opposing offense are increasingly difficult to defend.

As someone else said he was better than Saban on Saturday.

There has to be a time when you realize that offenses aren't the same as what they have been. It is a lot harder to play defense against the RPO and quick pass game. I think we could all agree that Aranda and the defense could make improvements but its just not the same anymore.

I have you haven’t. Orgeron addressed this yesterday when he said that the defensive breakdowns were because of player mistakes aside from the first TD on the trick play. He also said that we have talent on D but not great talent. So I guess we need to fire Orgeron too in your opinion? Calling you ignorant isn’t a slur it’s a fact. You can’t actually know football, know what’s going and say that Aranda is to blame. Anyone doing that is nothing more than a red assed fool looking to scream about something he knows nothing about.

His job now is no big chunk plays and 2/3 key stops per half. Way overpaid but that’s the new job description

It’s so ignorant it is a bit stunning. These people literally don’t know what they’re talking about. Most of them had to be too drunk to understand what happened because they’re not even describing what happened correctly and that’s sad because there’s repeatable video.

Wait that’s not the players job? You sure about that? Aranda needs to get out there and start playing as well? Lol unreal

That’s good because we didn’t play bump and run on that play. Go watch the replay, did Stingley put his hands in the WR and bump him off the line? Do you know what bump and run coverage is?

Stingley...….and every other DB, should have been 12 yards off the fricking ball.

LET THEM complete passes in front of you with 90 seconds to go

Have you people EVER watched football before? I say watched, because clearly, played is off the table
