How does this make dawgnation feel? I think it's a home run for the gators

Depends on how much he freshens up his playbook. If he runs the same old stuff, then there's miles of film on it.
I am not worried. Scheme change. Affects current players and 2018 recruits. Now they have to get new OL to play this style. Redefine defense that will be on the field longer. He has past infractions with the NCAA and that may not change.
It’s going to take 2 years minimum to be better. He didn’t like recruiting at Oregon, I doubt he will like it now. Also, do kids today even remember him? He was at Oregon...6,7 years ago?
I’d be more worried if it were Dan Mullen or Scott Frost
Richt will out recruit him in the state
So will jimbo
Without Nike to attract the players he will find it hard to recruit. His NFL career is unlikely to be highlighted by him.
But I bet he'll be able to score more points that the last 2 inhabitants of his office.
⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️ THIS
Who is going to be the OC? Does Corral stay? Can Franks throw to his own team? It will take a while. I hope the defensive players get a lot of rest in the off season
yup go on and hire CK...not worried about it rather him than some others nice try...
Sorry @ghostofuga1 Have corrected the DV - thought it was clever but thought it was @12ed hence the DV. UV now
No problem Denman, I'll take one for the 'Ol Gipper.......just to keep him from getting it.... and returned the favor...
What difference will Chip Kelly make? He'll be fired in 3-4 years when Muschamp, Stoops, and Kirby make it clear that Florida will never be better than fourth in the east for at least a decade.
Other than the fact we share the same nickname of Chip, I not overwhelmed by him. He walked into a very stable program built by Mike Bellotti and he was able to maintain and yes take it up another level. He has not proven to be able to restructure a program and build it up from the ground up like Matt Campbell is doing at Iowa State.
Ironically, Campbell did a nice job developing Jacob Park until some off the field heath issues sidelined him this year. Amazing what Campbell has done this year with a third string QB. I hope Tennessee does not hire him as he would be a great fit there.
Doesn’t CK have a racist label from his time in Philly? Or maybe just not able to relate to young people? Im pretty sure it was Brandon Boykins who called him out for it. I think kids/parents will remember that before his success at Oregon.
It’s not the homerun hire it would’ve been before his failed NFL experiment
No es bueno.
THIS IS A HUGE PROBLEM. Chip was recruiting well but he was pulling players from California. Imagine being in Florida where speed is most players focal point. Yeah two schools can recruit FLA as wellcas him but he also gets thebSEC benefactor and still has Cali ties and can get a top 15 class and step it up. Chip ran the same offense in college for years and it was hard to stop. I think if he gets a D Coordinator that can run the D he will succeed cause not many SEC teams score bunches of points. So he'd be a difference maker.
Chip Kelly failed in NFL. So did Nick Saban. It teaches you something and humbles you. I think he comes back with a fire and vengeance plusba name players can attach themselves to.
I think the guy is a good coach and has a weird personality. But so does/did Urban Meyer.
One thing that I do KNOW, is that the guy is also a liar and cheater. Even the pathetic, toothless NCAA caught and punished him as such. Congratulations, Florida.
