Aranda is expecting to get Baylor players back from the portal? Is that what you mean Waco47?
I'm not quite as dumb as I seem

Listen to his interview on YouTube. What he's saying is that he tolerated too much. He allowed things to go on that he has learned through experienc (last year) he cannot and will not do in the future. Good for him.

It's refreshing to have someone at the helm who can admit he makes mistakes. Goodness knows, we need more humbleness, honesty and willingness to admit to being human, i.e., making mistakes.

All of society needs that desperately. We have become convinced that our way is the only way. Hooray for Aranda. He may or may not be coaching at Baylor in a few years (I sure hope he is), but how wonderful it is to hear the truth from someone who is willing to admit in public for all to hear that he made mistakes.

Hubris is a dangerous drug.

Aranda is great at taking time and analyzing everything about Baylor football, and making changes, AFTER a season is over. What he has not shown the ability to do is to make quicker needed changes DURING a season, or better yet, during a game, like SEC HC's do. Seriously, Aranda is still learning the basics of being the CEO that runs the company, instead of the focused, introverted brainiac in the lab.

Besides Saban, who are all these genius SEC coaches making brilliant in-game adjustments?

I can't remember the last time UGA outschemed anybody. They just overwhelm you with superior athletes at every single position on the 2-deep (save QB). Aranda ran circles around Kiffin last time they faced off against each other. Heupel runs a fine system, but I haven't seen him scheme the pants off anyone with in-game adjustments.

I'm just curious where you think all the geniuses are hiding now that Leach is off captaining the Great Pirate Ship in the Sky.

Coming from '47, I was concerned this was a threat, but I should have known, since it was from '47, it was just another typo.

He's a fourth-year head coach whose first year was spent navigating a once-in-a-lifetime pandemic event. We hired him knowing he'd be learning on the job. He's not the coach now that he'll be three years from now, but he's a much better coach than he was three years ago.

I can accept some growing pains from a guy who is clearly open to growth. And I've never seen a coach more humble and introspective in his quest to improve as Aranda.
