LSU football made a big hire immediately after winning the national championship in January.
LSU football head coach Ed Orgeron made a big move back in January by hiring Bo Pelini to replace Dave Aranda as the Tigers’ defensive coordinator.
When rumors started circulating that Aranda was a head coaching candidate at various programs (Aranda eventually landed the Baylor head coaching gig), I immediately thought it was bad news for the Tigers.
Aranda wasn’t a dominant defensive coordinator at LSU by any means.
