I'm not saying Banda/Patke/Simpson are/are not the right hires.
What I will say is HC/DC/OC "skill sets" and "hire was good/bad" has reached Brobdingnagian proportions of distortion.
The screams of who is/is not qualified doesn't align with reality.
About ANY individual with proven successful leadership of a large organization could be a successful DC/OC/HC. Will they be perfect on day one? Hardly. Will they have quite a bit figured out by end of the week? If they are worth their salt, 1000000% they will.
How many "hot name" hires turn out to be busts? Here's a hint, more than no name hires.
I'm not calling into question Aranda's DC cred, but how many points were scored by the opponent in LSU's losses? Aranda makes HOW MUCH?
The decision at Miami is made, let's see how this plays out.
This is a rock solid take.
