Close but incorrect.

He didn't win. There was a settlement with most of the money paid to Rick Neuheisel by the NCAA. The NCAA was applying major pressure on Washington to settle because the NCAA had the most risk share. Their language had intent but was not clear enough. That is why they clarified the language after the settlement.

But don't take my word for it take Rick Neuheisel's. He admitted that his gambling was wrong several times afterwards.

Yeah we should be lectured on integrity by a coach that was fired for participating in Gambling on College Sports. LOL

Coach O was fired. If it were up to him he would still be coaching LSU today.

Short term delusional memory

Go rent one for a week. Drive it everywhere including the highway.



I rent them from time to time when I travel. After about 3 days I'm over it. You might have a different experience
Verge was there when the Riley deal went up in smoke. He would need to have a lot of forgiveness I'd imagine.
Right. They want to hire a coach that is about to get fired. Make it make sense.


quote:

Right, because he has all that talent to work with at Baylor…….


Then why are they firing him? If the next coach cannot get talent then just keep Aranda.

The man has zero personality hates public speaking and is a horrible recruiter.


Imagine him trying to talk a big donor out of NIL money.
Absolutely you can!

But if you want to ignore those facts go look at his losses over the last few years. His clock management alone cost them games and made Les Miles look like a Rocket Scientist.

Kelly was the winningest active coach in college football. How did that work out?


A good argument to do the opposite. Hire Trent Dilfer. His win record is 33%.

quote:

How many schools in Texas does he recruit against? Texas, A&M, Texas Tech. Houston. RICE, SMU, TCU, UTSA, plus many more.


Comical. Baylor alums have money. Aranda couldn't tap into it because he is boring. But even so, Texas has talent. If he couldn't recruit against the powerhouses of Rice and UTSA then god forbid he come here.
Saban came with risk when we hired him. He became a household name at LSU not before. LSU football was a year after year failure and we turned to a coach that was willing to come here.

Don't forget Saban made phone calls to his wife and agent right before his press conference telling them that he made a mistake. His wife told him to put his big boy pants on and get after it. Go back and look at our facilities at the time. They were a joke. That is no longer true. We are better than taking big risks now.

Point being--you do not fire a $100M coach to go get Aranda.
quote:

I guess according to you Nick Saban was a failure as well.


Was LSU a proven commodity the ten years before Saban?

NO! There were some 2 & 3 win seasons before Saban came in and righted the ship. We became a great job after Saban. Before we were unfulfilled potential.

We are better than a Aranda hire. Think big not mediocre.
A TOP 5 job in the country and some want to give the keys to a failed Head Coach. Don't forget that he has a program in some of the most fruitful recruiting grounds in the country, Texas.

Our defense under Aranda wasn't the 2000 Baltimore Ravens. They were good, had patches of great, had patches of meh too. We all hope that Aranda lands on his feet. Maybe even our Defensive Coordinator. But jeezam stop throwing names in order to be fringe edgy.

LSU can do better. Some of our fans, I'm skeptical.

Validation that Rouse was a bad choice.
