He could have stayed another yr and the job would've easily been his...but he didn't...They literally just won a national championship a few years ago with Ed O as their corch

Yeah I’m not sure if he’s calling plays but he’s definitely heavily involved in game planning to say the leasrOh wow. Thanks for that info. I would never have guessed. Especially considering last years Baylor squad wasn’t good at all
Stoops needs a call, too. If this financial commitment to the program is the real deal, then we gotta throw our hat in the ring for every big name. Shoot our shot.I like Aranda, but we need to be open to all possible choices including LF
He’s been at Baylor for two years. He would have had to stay two years.He could have stayed another yr and the job would've easily been his...but he didn't...
Not that I disagree with this, same gets brought up with Lane. I only wish to point out that Shannon, Golden, and Manny were all able to recruit decent classes at worst. Didn't pan out with a lot, terrible evaluations and all that, but still high ranked classes. I'm of the belief the product on the field, the x and o side, will bring the recruits more than the figure head coach. Saban doesn't get people at Bama because of his personality. He wins, puts people in the league.My biggest concern would be recruiting. He seems to be very stoic, which might not be conducive for connecting with recruits.
I agree on Kiffin. I'm not super high on him like others on the board either. Plus the maturity issues. But as far as Mario goes. C'mon now. Two-time back to back Pac-12 champion, 2020 Rose Bowl champion, 2019 Pac-12 coach of the year, current #3 ranked team in CFB and marching towards the CFP, rated as the top individual recruiter in the country while at bama, consensus top 10 recruiting classes at Oregon, unlimited contacts in South Florida, Miami alum. It's too easy of a choice with Mario. Far superior to Aranda.Where's Mario's and Kiffins Championships and Stack of big Wins at???
Again...I've known Mario since he was a GA under Butch...have no problem if he were to accept the job...But there's something about Aranda that intrigues me...I agree on Kiffin.

plus you love to stir the pot and you see most are now sold on Mario or lane hahahaAgain...I've known Mario since he was a GA under Butch...have no problem if he were to accept the job...But there's something about Aranda that intrigues me...
And??...I'm not sold on LSU being his dream job...He’s been at Baylor for two years. He would have had to stay two years.
Lol I get that. Just think you’re reasoning for it not being his dream job is because it’ll be hard to win at LSU is incredibly flawed. The guy literally won a national championship there lolAnd??...I'm not sold on LSU being his dream job...
I heard USC was highest on his wish list.And??...I'm not sold on LSU being his dream job...
I like him too. Big west coast guy though. Hard to pry away from USC or Washington (or Oregon) if Mario comes. That's if he leaves Baylor.As much as I like Mario...and appreciate Kiffins Offensive knowledge...I'd take Aranda over both. Can you imagine pairing him with a good OC (even Lashlee to a lesser extent) and a young and up & coming DC who'll run Aranda's D to a T??...Man o Man we'd run amok on the ACC...
This is one of the things that’s making me nervous about our situation. Hasn’t somebody reached out to Mario at this point to see if he’s interested? I keep saying the job is his if he wants it. Shouldn’t we know at this point if he wants it or is my timeline too quick?Again, Let's not kid ourselves...The job is Mario's "IF" he wants it...I've known that for months...Aranda would be a **** good backup plan. Fickell is NOT coming to UM....
He only coached the D....He won't have the staff that was there during that NC run...primarily Steve Ensminger...Lol I get that.

Oh trust me...they've reached out one way or another...This is one of the things that’s making me nervous about our situation.
