Best way to control aggro is through root if you can. The warrior then only needs to be the closest to the mob, and he will hold aggro forever. This is the only way I have seen warriors be able to hold good aggro.

This is actually a really bad habbit to get into. Root will break multiple times during a fight and it generates a whole mess of aggro. The moment the root breaks that mob will start attacking the person who rooted it and the warrior needs to re-establish control.

The more you root, the higher you get on the aggro list. The warrior doesn't actually have aggro in this case, the mob is simply defaulting to hitting whatever it can until it can finally move again. If you try using root like this on a raid you will either die often or piss off the backup healers.
