This was a bad year for him and it's still better than Kneel.
Baylor was expected to compete for a conference title some picked them as a dark Horse playoff team and they ended up with a losing record. The guy inherited a good situation from Matt Rhule so getting off to a good start wasn't that difficult. This years Baylor team was the most reflective of his tenure and look what happened. Mel Tucker at Michigan State is another one they were 5-7 this season. You really don't get a sense of how good your coach is until year 4-5. I have watched Baylor on several occasions and I'm not impressed with Aranda. LSU passed on this guy twice and from what I have seen of him I'm not surprised. He still might turn out to be a good hire but I doubt it. Kansas State got a good coach in Klieman year 4 and look where they are. If we would have hired Aranda I don't think are situation would be any better than it is today.

Vault why haven't you chimed in? This Troll thread of yours hasn't aged well. Baylor was supposed to be a dark horse playoff team what happened? I though Aranda was a great hire
Vault trolls like Bucky and CFE. They don't reply when proven wrong.

I'm not disagreeing but when Baylor has a "******" season and it is still better than ours it just lends some depth to how putrid we are now.
