I still have a gut feeling this is our guy. I have zero "inside information" to back it up but the chattering masses have been saying all along it's this guy or Brent Venables. Aranda has eaten Riley's lunch every !@#$%^& time they have played each other and that's damn near left a scar on OU's memory. Now they'd love to have him if they could. But, repeat but, nothing's for sure right now. But I notice Aranda hasn't made any "No way in hell" statements lately. Hmmmm.
He did say the the press "I hope we are beyond the speculation of me leaving for another school" a few days ago. I remember because I was wanting him at LSU and we hadn't announced Kelly yet.

Joe C may be pulling a "Dennis the Menace".

"...His mom and dad get nervous
Whenever he's too quiet
They never know what will happen next
A cyclone, flood or riot"

My Baylor alum brother in law is afraid that is the case because of how quiet everything has been. But he's been that way ever since the SC job opened up because of Aranda's connection to Cali. Then he got real grumpy when LSU opened up. Now he's OU worried because of the quietness.

Grant Teaff is from my hometown and where I currently live again. We have a couple of quasi BMD Baylor guys here. I know Mack Rhoades has been contacting them and their ilk about passing the hat to see if they can accumulate enough to keep Aranda. But the recents events of Tucker, Franklin and what USC and LSU are doing with Riley and Kelly have caused Mack Rhoades to make 2nd and 3rd calls to the Baylor faithful. And being a small school for all these years, there just isn't a huge number of "monied Baylor exes"....even if some have very deep pockets.

And, a similar situation happened with the local Texas Tech alumni and Chris Beard last spring. They were able to gather up enough to outspend Texas but that wasn't enough to keep him. They had to say uncle and wish Beard the best of luck. (But some felt like @Proud_Okie does with Riley right now.) I'm afraid that is what will happen with Baylor and Aranda. If it comes to a bidding war Oklahoma > Baylor. And really will be when the Big 12 revenue drops in a few years.

I wonder why there are so many communications this morning about a Venables/Lebby ticket. Then when I asked someone who has always given me straight poop from inside the AD their answer is "Who knows?". !@#$ And here I thought the Manhattan Project was a well kept secret. It's either more BS or it's Joe the Hun has laid down the law about leaks.
