RE: Aranda to Baylor as HC

What concerns me about watching the Baylor process is how much better it was handled then Mizzou's. I actually like our hire better than Baylor's, but the process and candidates is telling about the ADs. Although I've been very critical of Rhoades, I was impressed that he got Fuentes to the table. Even w/ his struggles at VaTech I think he's solid and wish we had him. I'm sure replacing Odom made this a non starter for Fuentes (given their relationship) to even entertain the Mizzou spot but still impressed w/ Baylor's candidates given the late nature of the opening. All that said, I hope Aranda fails at Baylor as I still hold a grudge against Rhoades (as petty as that may be).
