It may seem odd to say a coach doesn't know what he is doing 2 years removed from a conference title, but it sure seems like Aranda doesn't know what he is doing. It is starting to feel like that Big 12 title was off the back of Rhule's players, players who were quite seasoned.
Aranda has made a lot of questionable moves.
- Hired Fedora - that was a big mistake
- Brought in Grimes who is at best a G5 OC
- Fired a DC who led a defense that was the key to our big 12 title the year before
- Hired a guy to be a DC who had 1 year as co-defensive coordinator under his belt.
- Hired shawn bell who obviously cannot coach QBs
- Our OL can't block (been a problem since Briles was fired)
- Our WR's can't get separation. Other than Mims, that's been a problem since Briles was fired
- Gave the starting QB job to a kid with barely any experience and no scrambling ability with no veteran RB's to support him, vs. keeping a mobile QB with veteran leadership that could run away from pressure.
