Miami offered Aranda $1 mill a year

I mean ****. It is what it is at this point. 1 million is nothing to balk at. Probably paying for their future HC as well.
 
not sure i believe this. aside from the boards which have gotten every hire wrong. we didnt hear much about aranda and UM. Diaz came out of the blue but he was a mickey andrews protege when Richt was at FSU. Also, he and Kool are 4-3 guys. Richt made it clear the type of defense he wants to play and it wasnt Aranda's. i could be wrong but i feel that richt was prob going Diaz all the way

Top beat reporter for LSU, Jimmy Smith, said Aranda would have gone to UM if LSU did not come in
 
Would not be surprised if Diaz only lasts one year, here. Richt will go after a real DC after next season.

Ariz is rarely wrong on these things

So he panicked and hired a joke corch.

Aranda would have been a program changing hire. And Richt couldn't land him. He preferred to go to a sinking ship than come here for $1mil.

Absolute epic failure.

SO basically if Richt hadn't waited and offered him 3 weeks ago we would have Aranda.

How do we know Richt didnt offer him immediately? Aranda could have told Richt he was waiting till after his bowl game

honestly, even if he did offer Aranda, it was a smart move to go to LSU. Les Miles is clearly on the way out and he might wind up the HC.
 
So we go from possibly Aranda, to this:

Manny Diaz defensive rankings (total/scoring)

2010 MSU: 49th/22nd
2011 UT: 11th/33rd
2012 Texas: 69th/74th
2013 Texas: incomplete, was fired after giving up 550 rushing yards to Baylor
2014 LA Tech: 32nd/54th
2015 MSU: 36th/58th

Yeah Im sure we literally just pulled the 1mill offer out of our asses 2 days ago and offered...

Aranda being smart probably wanted to wait till after the bowl game to decide which did him the favor because LSU in panic mode is way over paying for him
