Chip Kelly will do a fine job at Florida if that is who they hire. Players love to play in that offensive system and know they are getting the football and playing fast. Not saying I'm scared but look at what he did in his run at Oregon and its pretty impressive.
Eh have a hard time he will flip this late in the game
Another 1 post wonder. No way he's going to team that will be rebuilding when he's got one on the verge of winning a NC.
Trolls will be trolls...
???????
Not a good first post. Read back on some previous threads.
Chip who?
I got hammered and DV’d terribly when I originally posted this, but I just don’t see Kelly being a good fit in the SEC. Personally, I’d love to see him get the UF HC job.
Chip Kelly can't recruit!
Kelly’s former offensive coordinator Mark Helfrich once said that his former boss didn’t necessarily hate recruiting, but just "strongly disliked" it. (Helfrich: “I’m not sure if he hated recruiting…dislike, a strong dislike.”)
Compare and contrast to CKS, who realizes recruiting is where it all begins, and doesn't b!tch about it like the primadonna Kelly does.
Kelly was pretty average in recruiting at Oregon. Here's how his classes ranked (note: in 2007 and 2008 he was Oregon’s offensive coordinator):
2007: 14
2008: 34
2009: 30
2010: 12
2011: 12
2012: 14
Agreed. It would be interesting for the couple of years we have before the Florida fan base runs him off.
If Chip goes to Florida, they won't be successful at all. He's a bad hire for them. The schemes and playbooks and everything else won't fit the style of offense that Florida has been running to be somewhat decent.
I think dropping the style of offense they've been using would be a great start for him. As much as we hat the Gators, they haven't been at all "offensive".
You have a good point. Could be a fresh start for them. I'd give them at least 3-5 years to readjust and get back to competing for the East. For the next few years, I can only see USCe and Georgia competing for the East for the next few years.
How about Dan Mullen? Just conjecture here but a solid coach with a team for 3-4 more weeks who has former ties to Florida. And a clear step up from miss st so the pieces would make a lot of sense.
Dan Mullen's wife recently complained about how she had to go food shopping in Orlando, where she worked, whenever Florida scored less than 43 points in a game because of the grief she received. I think it's safe to say he won't be back as long as they're together.
She could have come to McIntosh where I live (20' away from the wrong Gainesville) and I can guarantee you not a soul would recognize her. Average age is about 70+ with lots of vision problems. She'd be safe here!
