SuperDave0805 Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 Seems like Kelly was just going through the motions at UCLA and that he doesn't have the fire in his belly to be a head coach anymore 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying it’s not possible but it’s really late for a student to enroll at Texas this semester. The April 15-30 portal window is when things will happen.

BurntOrangeCrush Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 45 minutes ago, Bobby Burton said: I just can't believe this. How bad a situation must UCLA be for coaches right now? Agreed! Think about the new challenges they are facing trying to win a conference, when they couldn't overcome the Pac 12 competition. Now they are still hitched with the few great Pac 12 programs, but they have the new Big 10 teams to face. Not to mention the logistics nightmare of actually traveling to play road games. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rivalrygameblock Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 The agent-fed lists of replacements being published are pretty meh. Hard to believe UCLA, in that locale, isn’t leveraging corporate NIL better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes me wonder about Chip Kelly. Coordinator jobs are usually taken by fired head coaches. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Class of 04 Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 Over the last 6 years or so Ohio State is the Oklahoma of the BIG, they always have a stellar offense and win the conference more times than most. When it comes time to win a natty they poop the bed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace Recruiter Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 1 hour ago, SuperDave0805 said: He saved Penn St after the Sandusky stuff hit the fan He did. That helped him land the Texans HC position. All he did there is trade the best receiver in the league for a carton of smokes and a 12 pack of PBR. He set that franchise back and has been trash everywhere since. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coordinator jobs are usually taken by fired head coaches. It’s odd. What’s he going to do at Ohio State to really help himself? Ryan Day has had great offenses at Ohio State. It’s not like Chip is going to a defensive HC and will credit for getting them over the top, like Sark, Kiffen, or Monken (Georgia). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Longhornmd Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 I think this is a bad hire for Day. I am not sure Kelly has the energy to recruit anymore. Kelly also does not like the NIL era right now. Kelly also has not matched the success that he had at Oregon. This could be disastrous for Day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hank Kingsley Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 Chip won't have major responsibilities with NIL/recruiting at Ohio State like he did at UCLA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UTJack Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 Ohio State has our former aggie athletic director...he probably offered Chip Kelly $10M/year for 10 years guaranteed to get him:) Hook'em Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
