How do you pronounce his last name?


I've heard it as a-RAN-duh.

ETA: Sounds like "veranda".

This is extremely exciting. Intelligence and adaptation are key to winning the SEC and besting Saban:

"Coach Aranda first and foremost is very, very smart," Vigil said. "Instead of being really, really vocal, he was more of a thinker.

"You could see him contemplating, looking at things more than other coaches. Defensive coaches typically are screamers, and he wasn't.

"I personally really like that about Coach Aranda."

Aranda's professorial demeanor struck a chord with Doughty, too.

"He talks to you one-on-one, man-to-man," Doughty said. "The whole screaming thing can only go so far. He gets to know you on a personal level and he is genuinely interested in your input on things.

"He will ask players how they view a new scheme or a wrinkle for an opponent."

The key to Aranda's defense, according to both players, will be deception.

Throughout the spring UW used three-, four- and five-man fronts and brought pressure from a variety of spots.

Those images stirred fond memories for Doughty.

"A lot of defenses, what you see is what you get," he said. "What we ran...it was like we'd show something one way and then bring something completely different the other way.

"We'd start off in a certain package or a grouping and by the end of it we would change.

"It is more of a chess game when he plays. It's not just mano a mano. There is more of a mental aspect to it.

It's going so down its a shame.

This is better than hiring an offensive coordinator in my opinion.
With LSU's talent, and a masterful plan on Defense. There is no way we can't be in the final four every year.

If Cam stays on the sideline, and we avoid the check with me offense (see Texas Tech), it's almost too much too handle thinking about what could be. We could have also hired our next head coach as well. In more ways than one, this is a great hire.
Hopefully we get back to the Ron Cooper days when our Db's were actually coached to turn and find the ball.

Great hire. Homerun compared to Steele. I'm curious to see how he runs his scheme here. Anyone know what he's capable of doing on the recruiting front? Not a big deal if we keep Raymond and Coach O just curious.

Great addition to the staff. Les is a mad genius, he gets Auburn to take on our baggage and makes a hell of a hire

I think he's an on field coach as opposed to sitting in the press box like Chavis and Steele. I like that.

There are a couple of articles that go into detail of how Aranda's 3-4 scheme works well with the Power Football offense concept.
