If you are willing to give a "kitchen sink" offer, you need to start higher than Dave Aranda. no offense to Coach Aranda, but he is no Urban Meyer.

You're going to be awfully disappointed because it's not going to be urban.

Alberts and TO, whatever influence he still has, aren't going to hire Meyer, IMO. Aranda seems like a coach that would be at the top of the wish list. This seems believable if DA is listening. To me the only concern is lack of long term track record as a head coach. I could see paying him a big salary as long as the buyout wasn't outrageous.

only difference I see between his resume and frost's prior to coming here is he's been a coordinator for a little longer

9-9 in the big 12 in his 2 year head coaching career. yawn

Wasn't he at Wisconsin?

For some reason that has become boner juice for a lot of Husker fans.

I know you think you are a football know it all. But your urban takes are garbage.

Aranda may be my dark horse candidate, simply because the Big 12 is so diminished after OU and Texas leave. The dude seems so hard-nosed that it would be awesome for our national identity. He's about the right age and he's a winner. His guys always get after it.

I don’t think Tuco is slobbering over Meyer. Just pointing out that you only throw the kitchen sink at a coach of his stature. And Aranda, though a good coach, is not kitchen sink worthy

We can debate his coaching chops all night long but I think we can all agree that he’s one handsome devil

aranda would obviously take the job

anyone who's gone .500 in his conference during his entire head coaching tenure would be insane to say no to $7/$8M per year

12-2 in his 2nd year. His OC (Grimes) has been one of the best in the business for years, and when he got together with Mickey and Bill, (hint. hint.) It worked out pretty well. With that being said, the chances of landing him are slim to none. I would take him in a heartbeat though.

Urb's a slut. A hot slut (albeit completely plastic - not a single part of it being authentic and real), but a slut nonetheless. For a number of you, that's good enough. You get your rocks off, quickly, and it leaves you without hesitation for the next little weiner with a lot more money
Or, it takes your money, sees your goods (or lack thereof), fakes a headache (sound familiar?), and is gone. Either way, just being within 10 feet of that big of a ***** leaves a mark, as in a pock mark, in the crotchal region, with burning and painful urination for years, which you may never recover from. But, for sure, that 10 seconds was the best 10 seconds of your lives.

What a seriously odd way to characterize Aranda’s 2 seasons. He went 2-7 his first season and then 12-2 last year including a conference title win and a bowl win and wins against 5 ranked teams. Yah, pure suckage.

He also DC’ed great defenses at Wisc and LSU. While he isn’t my top choice behind UM and Fickle, he is above guys like Leipold, Campbell and BOB for me.

I am more than willing to give a pass on the covid year esp for a first year head coach. But not sold as of today. Will be watching on Saturday ISU vs Baylor.

Aranda’s agent may have very well floated the rumor

we are going to make other coaches so much money this year with reactionary raises and extensions

Trev, a former defensive all-American, may want a defensive guru as his coach. Is Aranda the best defensive coach among the possible candidates discussed so far?

The head coach needs to be a good head coach, not a good coordinator. He needs to hire a good / the best coordinator.

Armada would be great hire- young-great defense- has been involved with winning teams and culture- would consider him home run hire
